Another Easy Week

This week should be pretty easy and straightforward.  If you’ve been following along with this series for a while, you’ve accomplished a lot already!  We have just a few weeks left.  So consider this week’s simplicity a much-deserved rest.

If anyone in your household is involved in extracurricular activities of any kind, you will need a designated place for the relevant information.    There probably isn’t a ton of it; it just needs to be gathered together in a specified location so it doesn’t get lost.

What might this paperwork include?

• Sports schedules
• Team rosters
• Snack schedules (You don’t want to forget your turn!)
• The church directory
• Costume payment deadlines

You get the idea.  (If there are special events to be put on the calendar, you’ll want to write these into your actual calendar so you’ll remember them.)

STEP 1:Decide what is the best place for the extracurricular paperwork.

(Tip: This might need to be someplace other household members can readily access it, too.)

STEP 2: Gather up all of this paperwork and put it in the designated location.

STEP 3: Write any key dates into your calendar.
