I have a diary for things in the weeks ahead and I transfer it weekly to a magnetic one that is on the freezer, I do this every sunday night for the week ahead. Can't be without either.
I've tried a weekly menu it doesn't work for me but I do have a list of our favourite meals so that if I'm stumped and looking for ideas I go to the list and see if I have the ingredients to make that dish.
I always get my washing in the machine early so that I can be having a shower, eating breakfast while it's washing. The night before is good also if I have to go out early, I just hang it before I go.
I'm also a watch wearer when I go out.
