Do you use your paper planner for other purposes?

I actually use mine for my weight watchers tracking. I have the online tools but I don't keep up with it as diligently as I do with paper tracking. (WW actually offers paper tracking tools for members but it's nicer to have a pretty paper calendar looking thing.)

I have one like this. I like the pages where the week spans two pages. I like that the first column is blank (my categories are breakfast/lunch/midday/dinner/snacks, and then I track water down in the bottom margin). In the top big box on each day is where I can write appointments and track activity... I like to put cute stickers in there as a reward if I have done some exercise. LOL.

I use one called something like The Busy Moms Planner. I write all kinds of stuff on there. I like having paper to see it on and I also clip to stuff to there like coupons or reminders or phone calls I have to make. Sometimes I jot down inspirational sayings if it is something I head that I like. It works for me and I have been getting them for the past 4 years or so.

I miss my Franklin planner. I've switched to using the calendar on my phone but I always used my planner as a tickler file for upcoming things - kept tickets there, receipts for things in the future, kids shot records, etc. Now that I'm not carrying it everywhere it's hard to find a good place to keep those bits of paper.

I always get a paper planner with a monthly and weekly view.
In the weekly view section, I write notes, make lists and glue ticket stubs etc, on the appropriate days. At the end of the year, it's very scrapbook-ey. I also keep running lists- like when I'm shopping for a birthday or Christmas, in the weekly section for that occasion.

In the monthly section - I not only write down appts and events- I write things like when I mailed a check (and when that thing was received- like when I send for our new license plate stickers), a confirmation number for an on-line payment, due dates for bills, planting dates, frost dates, how many miles I walked, notes for next year. For example, I never remember how much corned beef we buy for St. Patrick's Day- or how many pounds of potatoes. This year I wrote it down, in the notes section next the March calendar. When I transfer info into next year's planner- I have that reminder. 

It's kind of amazing how much information a planner contains, at the end of the year. My family jokes and calls it 'the great big book of everything' - but if I need to remember when one of us last got new glasses (so we know when we're eligible to go again)- my planner will have that info. How long did it take to receive our new village stickers? My planner will have a note about it.
