Some of you folks may have notice a lack of me in the last week.

I was in the hospital.

I had subdural hematoma, the source of which I am not entirely certain, that were causing me to seriously space out, according to my wife.
I need this like I need a hole in my head. Well I now have 4 new holes in my head, and I'm feeling much better now.
I have an appointment on the 15th to get the stitches out, and between now and then, I am on sick leave.

The best part of that is that I plan to use my down time to work on the Dynamic Templates.

I have PNG export almost ready to go and I just found a request for icalender import, which has been on my to-do list.
This may be enough of a time chunk to tackle that.

My wife is being somewhat insistent about me not spending all my time in my basement 'puter room, but I still have my laptop !
I may not be able to participate in the forums as much as I want to, but I will be programming.

Hi,

I am a planner and I have always wished that I could combine the pro's of a ring bound and wire planner into one that I love. I was reading and it seems that using the the disc's and a hole punch I can create my own. Is that correct? Also, I like Franklin covey's pages, but they already have holes punched into them, does that mean I can't use their pages but have to print my own?

Hi everyone. I am hoping for some help here.

I work at a high school where my primary role is as a sports administrator (football-soccer) and I also teach 4 PE classes. I have been using a planner for organising my schedule and to do list and a seperate diary for organising my lessons, etc.

I was able to find a planner in B5 size which I make own pages for obviously (see a previous thread I started.) My task now is to find a way of combining my daily schedule, task lists and lesson planner into 1 planner so I take everything I need everywhere.

My question is, are there other teachers/administrators (maybe heads of faculty, deputy principals, etc) out there who use diy planners? Any ideas, thoughts, templates?

Thanks
Derek

I have looked and looked and cannot find that lovely picture that Doug gave us for our desktop. I think it was around Christmas. I entered all the words I could think of that applied to the picture, but came up with nothing. Have any of you any information about this? I think it would make a great picture for my planner. It was of old paper and books and rather nice. Thanks.

Where is the Old Dynamic Template Kit? I want it. It had some blank 2 page monthly calendars. They work just fine for me. Please tell me where I can get them. Thanks.

I work as a personal/executive assistant.

There is one question that always poses a head scratcher in my line of work when going to work for someone new - diary management.

It can mean everything from:

- a paper planner on boss' desk (lots of running in an out to check/add dates on my part)
- some form of computer calendar on both our desks (best case scenario)
- paper planner on boss' desk/computer version on mine shadowing the paper planner so the rest of the company can make appointments (very messy)
- paper planner on boss' desk (pocket planner for travel) - and computer on mine (major headache)
- some form of mobile gadget that is supposed to sync with computer calendar and boss' desk (and mine if I'm lucky)

Now I gather that most of us are passionate enough about our diaries and planners to manage our own, thank-you-very-much-for-asking. :)

For those of you who have to coordinate closely with other people and share the content of your planners - how do you go about this?

Hey everyone...

Just thot you might like to know that I just posted a new Free Giveaway on our blog. It is for a 5.5X8.5 discbound notebook with 3/4 inch rings. This one is different from last weeks in that the rings are exposed thru the spine of the cover.

Just copy and paste this link. Don't know how to do the actual link code thing.

We are switching over to Macs and just got our first one, a MacBook. We do not like the email client that comes with it and are looking for suggestions from you all for a different email client. Please let me know what has worked for you.

I followed a link from the Field Notes web site and learned about the National Stationery Show (http://www.nationalstationeryshow.com/) Wow. Has anyone ever been? Is it worth wrangling my way in using a friend who buys stationery products for her retail store? Or is it just too dangerous for an office supply/stationery junkie to enter?
