And the winner is…..47
I lost a good chunk of my brain over 11 years ago when I had my first daughter. About 6 years later, another girl born and about 60% brain loss. 2 more years after that, brain loss of around 90%.
About Your Time LLC sent me new brain to try out. With homeschool and 4H starting back up I needed help! Also adding in blogging, graphics, sewing and all my many other tasks like uh, cleaning…I needed serious help!
After trying many planners that failed me (or maybe I had failed at using them)…I had my doubts. What I was sent is called the BusyBodyBook. Mine runs from Aug 09 until Aug 10. Perfect for my hectic school/4H year! It has room for everything! It is set up in grids, so basically there is a square for each person in my household for each day! No more trying to code things into little tiny boxes. It also has a few pockets, some perforated grocery lists, places to write notes, doodle and even examples of different ways you can use it to make it work for you. You can download some sample pages to check it out!
I have been using this as a brain replacement for the past week and it has kept me sane! I am getting caught up! I am accomplishing much more with my time…I have everything that needs to be done in a given day (by and for everyone) written down! I highlight things as they are done and it has left me feeling more relaxed! I have everything here, so now I do not stress about forgetting something. I know..you’re all like jeez..it’s just a planner. Um, no it’s not. I have used “just a planner” and “just a planner” just doesn’t work for a person that has lost their brain… such as myself.
You can buy your very own brain BusyBodyBook for only $17.95!

I love the BBB! It is a fantastic way keep the busy schedules of 5 family members all in one place. I could really use this to keep me from being late for activities, and to remind me which kid has which activity and when, and where. It would truly help me out. I love the columns idea. I could use it as a calendar for my household, and as a lesson planner for my classes. What a perfect set-up.

One of these could save my life because with 3 boys, 2 of them in school and sports, I never know if I am coming or going. Luckily the youngest is attached to me so no worries on that, but I just found out I was pregnant with baby #4 which adds a heck of a lot of doctors appointments in the mix of my already crazy busy life.

Between watching my own children, watching other people’s children, soccer, I can’t even remember when my favorite shows come on. I think this could help me a LOT

This would keep my family’s soccer and cross country schedule more organized and not so crazy.

This would help me remember vet appointments, doctor appointments, meetings for work, and, oh yeah, that oil change I have forgotten for about three months…. lol
This would help me keep my four kids’ schedules straight. I homeschool three of them. Right now I try to squeeze everything onto a small calendar.
i’m so forgetful with my own agenda this would surely help with keeping the entire family being in the right place at the right time

This would help me a lot because I don’t have a planner or calendar right now. I’m lost in a sea of post it notes. Thanks for the giveaway!

This could help me track all our schedules.
This will definitely help me to get organized especially with school starting for me and being the “head hauncho” of everything in our household as well as keeping up with my website!

I am a mom first and a cpa second. The problem is my client’s end up suffering because my kids keep me on the run.
I could really use this as a SAHM I am always on the go having to take someone here or there and this would really help me keep up with the huge list of things to do!

With three kids in different stages of development, my hair is getting noticeably thinner as I pull it all out trying to keep everything straight!
I have four brain parts missing! Very cute way of explaining the way our brain scatters into pieces as we add to our families. 🙂 I really like this busy body planner, not only is is pretty, but it’s practical. I like how you can add the names or activities that you want. Most day planners do not work for me so I end up using 3 different things and end up forgetting something. Sounds like a winner! Thanks for sharing!
The grids, the beautiful grids, Gina, I love yr beautiful grids.
I have nothing left in MY head but the ability to visually organize. This be the stuff!
Also sooo pretty and calm.
Nothing like a family organizer you can look at without losing even more brain cells to stress!
it would help me to get more focused and organized:)
