Calendar Girl




Time to get organized and productive. I'm a Calendar girl, not in the ways of being in one, (hahaha)
 but by having too many of them. I have Calendars and date books and organizer notebooks and individual monthly calendars, oh I love them, that's for sure.

I have to write dates and appts. in my purse datebook and on the calendar in the kitchen and in my sewing room and so forth........

I can never decide on one, so that's why I have a collection of them each year. It's hard to be organized when you have to put in dates so many places, but I do!!!
Anyone else have this obsession?!?


Take a look at my Calendars for this year




As always my Lovely daughter makes up a Special Calendar for us each year with lots of fabulous pictures of the Little Girls. IT is always my favorite and most treasured!!


                                           All the photos for each month are adorable



                     Then there is the Cath Kidston datebook I keep in my purse



                           Then the weekly Keep Calm calendar I keep on my desk





                       Then the 3 ring Martha Stewart binder I keep on the kitchen counter





                Then the Susan Branch one I have in my sewing room. I love her and
                                                  she has a fabulous blog here






Then a lovely mini fold out desk calendar that goes on a paper stand (in the background) I'm using this for my next notebook.   Foldout from "Paper Source" store.




I am a huge fan of Moleskine notebooks. I thought I would have one for each month and put anything and everything in it. Everything from to do lists, to thoughts, to ideas, to dreams. Moleskines come in lots of colors, so it's fun to pick a new one for each month. So I will see how this works out.





I don't know if these are sold in Europe and elsewhere but they are plentiful here in the States. (and very popular)




Next monthly poster calendar I have on one of my desks, by Kate Libby  I love her art work, neat and simple.




           Last but not least, Free Mollie Makes calendar from magazine subscription, always FuN



So what a collection! I think I may not be the only one who has a few, but no more for me. At least I will try!

So Christmas decorations are all away and it is nice to have it simple and tidy. I am still enjoying the feeling of vacation because I am not working right now. I have been able to get so much done and it really is feeling good. I will be visiting my mom again in the next few weeks and I am able to plan accordingly, since I have more time.  SO all is well and all is calm.

I thank you for popping in. I love your visits and now I can comment on your comments or answer questions because I was able to figure out how to add reply on my blog. We will see how it works out. Have a great weekend and again thanks for stopping by.

  1. Dear Robin.. you sure love your calendars! I have kept a calendar in my day planner for years and years and YEARS.. and at last, I finally started keeping my calendar on my MacBook laptop and the dates I put in there go by iCloud to my iPhone and iPad! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

  2. That's great Teresa! I can't always get my iCloud to work, something about the WiFi I think.

  3. Nope, you take the title of most calendars owned by a person! I do love to buy my new calendar each year though, and put it up and start to fill in all of those squares!!

  5. You are making me feel very unorganized, I only have one and I forget to put a lot in it. I don't even use the calendar on my phone, well I better get cracking on that. I love the calendar of the girls, they are adorable.
    Have a great day,

  6. Hello sweet Robin,

    You seem to be the most organized lady in the world! Beautiful calendars, all of them! My mom always buys us a beautiful calendar for kitchen, it's a tradition really. I would love to have one of those Cath Kidson ones too!

    Have a wonderful weekend, and enjoy your happy, stress-free days!

    Mia

    1. Hi Sweet Mia, I guess I am pretty organized but it can be a nuisance too. I love traditions, so nice of your mom to get you a calendar each year! Good thing I don't live close to CK.
      Have a cosy weekend, xoRobin❤

  7. Lots of lovely calendars, Robin! (I have one so far and another just ordered!) I love the one of your sweet grandgirlies! I too use a small notebook all the time to write down ideas and lists and things I am trying not to forget! I love those coloured moleskine ones you are using! So glad you will have more time and less stress!
    Wishing you a happy weekend!

  8. Dear Robin, what a nice collection of calendars.
    We have one big calendar placed in the kitchen for all family members especially for the appointments of the kids. I have one calendar from BURDA which is really nice, because on the lft side I have the dates and on the right side there is one single page where I can write down all my ideas and to do lists.... Have a nice weekend. Nicolexxx

    1. Yes, Jane Moleskine notebooks are the best. I love all the color choice they have now! I know I have one to many, BUT I let myself indulge. Still love my school supplies I guess.
      Hoping you have a wonderful week ahead.
