Filofax week #3

Seriously, where does the week go? My week consisted of enrolling my son into child care and orientation, doing some business admin, calling job applicants and looking after my youngest. In between I tried to fit in as much exercise as I could and catch up with a few friends. As you can see I didn't even get through my goals or things to do. Husband, works long hours and unfortunately didn't get time for our date night. Next week looks even busier!

Where did those long lazy summers go?

I got my cute sticky notes and washi tape via eBay from an overseas seller. Dirt cheap as well...I heart eBay!

Filofax Week #1

As I mentioned in my previous post, I will be posting my Filofax week in 2013. Angela from Paper Love Story (whom I got the idea from) is doing a Filofax week collaboration within the blogger world. I can peek into everyone else's week...can't wait!

I've decided to use Dodopad this year. I love the grid design and paper quality is the best I've used.  However, I'm not a big fan of some of the graphics. Anyway, I'll try and do my best to pretty-fy!

So here's my FF week one.

Its not about the money money money .....

Who else has their money disappear, then you try and retrace your spending to figure out what it was you actually spent it on? Sound all too familiar?

I decided that next year I will attempt to track my spending using these spare finance sheets. I must admit that I've tried to do this many many times before. I think I lasted a couple of weeks then got lazy. Now I need to monitor funds for myself, hubby and the two kids. This time I'm determined to make it work. 

I've tried to make the finance sheets a little less dull with some washi tape and I hope to color code the entries. Any ideas on how to make these sheets a little more fun....let me know!

I have also included a Chinese red pocket with these cute characters on it. This will sit behind my finance sheets and used to hold important receipts until they are filed. 

My Filofax Finance section is ready...I think this may be the busiest section of my planner!

A big shout out to my new followers!
