I'm new to your blog and I just love it, maybe because we're both Nicoles with little boys named "M" :) Anyway, I was losing things that I had bookmarked and wanted to come back to but couldn't find. I just made my own spreadsheet and guess what the first thing on it is? Your blog! Thanks again :)Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03135725425296384065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-36730527649828819032009-10-01T02:54:48.492-05:002009-10-01T02:54:48.492-05:00i have the same problem!! its so hard to remember ...i have the same problem!! its so hard to remember where ideas come from.. what i try to do now is when i print an activity to do i copy the link to the paper as well... or the name of the blog that i found it at...Nadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775336866699302239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-83862915904382464082009-09-30T22:00:33.690-05:002009-09-30T22:00:33.690-05:00Evernote is mostly working for me.

So, that's why it works for me.Ticiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970101432834731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-49073921131248995062009-09-30T14:13:36.431-05:002009-09-30T14:13:36.431-05:00I am definately a pen and paper person.

Don't get me wrong, I love my computer, but when it comes to organizing our "school" stuff, projects, appointments, meals, pretty much everything, I use a teacher's plan book that I got free at Lake Shore Learning.Adrianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04609177097079692267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-78813612797570643892009-09-30T13:58:27.213-05:002009-09-30T13:58:27.213-05:00Your post came at a good time.

I was just telling my husband that I wish that Google Reader let you categorize the starred items. I really like the spreadsheet idea.The girl who painted treeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09159718600311729528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-53431790440218506952009-09-30T12:10:27.457-05:002009-09-30T12:10:27.457-05:00I hate to admit it that I am terrible at organizin...I hate to admit it that I am terrible at organizing anything, and you just gave me an answer as to why. I am not just a hard copy person, I really like to handwrite my lists. Obviously, it doesn't work too well for websites and such. So I also use word and excel for organizing. Mostly I use word files for themes and dump everything there. Then when I am ready to do the theme, I pull it out and try to organize it in time using Excel. It kind of works for most of my needs, but lately I've been neglecting my system, and I find that I am scrambling again.Natalie PlanetSmartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531558038661679151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-14140823133569763972009-09-30T10:29:18.327-05:002009-09-30T10:29:18.327-05:00I like this idea!!!

I use Evernote, but when I clip stuff to it, I don't categorize it...so I have to look through all my clips to find what I need...gotta get better with that. I also go through my Reader list at least once a day. Glad the spreadsheet is working for you!!!Mama Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02602135742666865515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565698982694193037.post-39880236083025973202009-09-30T07:54:32.734-05:002009-09-30T07:54:32.734-05:00I like your idea!

I have lots of categories/folders. Then I have subfolders, as needed. And sometimes a lot of subfolders! It is not a great system, but since I don't truly homeschool...(too much intensive therapy)...it works for now. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing! I've never created (though I've used) an excel doc. I just might have to though!Annette W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02498639468291720406noreply@blogger.com
