well, yes, I gave up circa for two reasons (mainly) 1) i was too rough on the smurfs and i used cheap paper, so the smurfs got pretty bent up 2) i thoughts the discs were just as annoying at 3 ring binders - meaning they took up just as much room and 3) it seems like the more freedom i had to print new pages and move them around, then that was all i did. my system became soooo complicated, i practically had to draw a map to find anything.

so, here is what i have now. simple. one junior size spiral notebook for work. i write everything in here and highlight when done. if there are important notes on a page and i may need to reference months or years from now, i number every page and on the last page i list those important notes on the page #. my calendar is on outlook and my phone.

for personal (no, i couldn't seem to keep work & personal together. at least not for tasks, but calendar is all together) i have a 3X5 mean reporter notebook where, again, i write everything. my calendar is on outlook and my phone. i also printed my monthly personal calendar on the 3X5 paper just so i had something on paper to look at. i unbound the spiral, used the notepaper in my printer and printed from outlook. worked great!

so, that is it for now... i am sure this will not last long, but am hoping simple will be better for me...

nay nay :)
