Keeping your schedule organized this time of year can seem daunting but if you don’t keep track of it, you’re going to end up over-extending yourself or forgetting important dates. Start by writing down all of the parties, events, or anything happening on a specific day on the monthly spreads of your planner, and make sure you are leaving room for downtime. Next, add any specifics that you need to remember for those events on the weekly to-dos page. For example, picking up ingredients for your potluck dish, checking into your flight, or picking up a white elephant gift.
