Digital Planning?

Hello Butterflies,

Have you ever used a program to plan?

I prefer to plan pencil to paper but find sometimes that Digital Planning also helps me stay connected with my family's events and task. 

I use Evernote as its a free program and can share notebooks with people that also use the program.  I share with my husband and children, which they can check and use on their computers, phones, or tablet.

I have made 10 notebooks with different category names. I get to pick and choose what family members I can share what notebook with. For example, I have a Social Media notebook for my blog, my husband and kids don't use it so need to share that notebook with them.

Let me share with you what category I have and what family member I share with.

• Inbox = Family
• Social Media = Self 
• Kids = Family
• Personal = Self
• Brain Dump / Brain Storming = Self
• Personal Growth =Self
• Financial = Husband
• Family = Family
• Plannerbutterfly = Self
• Planning = Husband

Each notebook holds sub categories. 

For Example Kids notebook

• Oldest Wishlist
•  Youngest Wishlist
• Password Log
• Upcoming Events

If the kids have a note they are not sure where to put it they will add it to the inbox. Like my oldest likes to place a note in for a test she has next Thursday in her Culinary class and homework due on Monday for Social Studies.

Each night I will check the inbox for any notes that need to be moved to the correct notebook. When I set down to plan for the next day I will go thought Evernote and write down any task and events I have for that day, and any events that the family has for the day.

I will also set alarm on any thing that the kids may have put in for the day. This is mom 's way of reminding them with out sounding like I am nagging them.

So yes I do use Digital planning to stay connected with my Family events. I will never give up on pencil and paper for planning.
