Are You an Organized Parent?

[melly]

Are you all more organized with the dh and the kids home or when everyone is gone to work and school? And if you are organized how do you do it?

I am organized when everyone is gone, but forget it when everyone comes home.

Have a nice night everyone.

I think tend to be more organized when I am here alone without too many distractions but today even with it on my calender, I forgot my son had his aikido class tonight until it was too late. There are other classes every day this week but we prefer the Monday night class and I totally spaced it ughh

I am so happy that most of you don't fall into the seriously unorganized catagory, and to the 24% of you that are currently joining me there, I really know where you are coming from! I would like to escape from this obscenely busy life that I live but I have no clue how to accomplish this. I have 5 children, a mother with Parkinson's disease, and a 91 year old grandma who has recently broken both hips and both legs at the knee, and I am trying to take care of all of them! I have so much on my mind that I am starting to forget some really important things. (like picking up my 6 year old from school yesterday**17 minutes late before I realized what time it was**) If you have any suggestions please email me with them. go-mama-go@sbcglobal.net

Help!!!! I feel guilty.... I am very unorganized. I drive my family nuts. I have a hard time focusing. However I have a desire to be organized....I know my life would be a lot easier. Actually I used to be when I didnt work outside the home. Now everything piles up..... sometimes I feel like I am drowning.

I do pretty good being organized for most actives,doctor app. but when a lot of things come up suddenly on days that have already been plan it makes it hard to organized in a way that everbody will be happy.

Pretty much routine rather than organised.
We tend to do the same things at the same time each week and it just all flows ~ day to day; week to week and month to month. . . .

Same here Meg! I use my computer's calendar to record things like important school dates, appointments, etc.

My home is very unorganized. But when it comes to appointments and activities, I'm very organized.
