Okay, it's no secret that I love my BlackBerry! But, sometimes it's so nice to see all the lists, things you need, calendar, etc. on paper, all together, all at once. This is where the MOManizer by Cindy at Polka Dot Monkey comes in handy. What is a MOManizer you ask? It's a full-size, stylish binder organizer designed specifically for moms, by a mom. On the front and back inside cover there is a space for sticky notes; a pocket for coupons, cards, etc.; an at-a-glance monthly calendar; and a clip for other important items. Clipped in the rings are full page versions of a to-do list (sectioned into e-mails, calls, errands, projects, misc., and at-a-glance weekly meals), weekly schedule, weekly meal plan, and grocery list (sectioned by category for easy shopping!). All pages are printed on cardstock and, since they are in a binder, can easily be removed (and put back too...a feature not common with many organizers!). All the things mom needs to schedule each week can be taken care of with this beautiful organizer!
I had an opportunity to try out the MOManizer and LOVE it! First of all, as I said above, it's beautiful! It has a padded fabric cover on the outside, and a nice coordinating lining on the inside. It can be made in a variety of fabrics and all are very pretty (the giveaway winner will win the one pictured!). The next feature I love is that it is a full-size binder that fits standard paper size (8.5 x 11). This makes it so the organizer can easily be added to, if you think of something else you'd like to have in there (not sure what that would be!), and pages can be removed. This is especially great for the grocery list, which you will definitely need to remove and take to the store. Finally, the lists that are included are very relevant for moms, are organized nicely into categories, and are separated by easy to read dividers. And...Polka Dot Monkey offers refills of all of the lists! I don't know about you, but I can't stand to use something that doesn't have refills! Another note on the lists...I particularly love that the weekly schedule is not dated (you write in the date at the top) and is organized into morning, afternoon, and evening rather than specific times. I know on dated weekly calendars there I times waste a whole page because I haven't gotten around to even making a calendar for the week! And on hour by hour calendars there are inevitably chunks of time that are rarely or never scheduled events. Thus, the morning, afternoon, evening format works great for me! I can write in my own times and there is no wasted space or paper. I have thoroughly enjoyed using the MOManizer and hope you'll check it out for yourself!
