hi, Kasalia, yes, I do. For me, the cardfile is the main guide. The planner reminds me about the time element of it. For instance if I need to plan extra time because some deep clean is about to roll around, or a large Desk Day push will be needed, or I want to take advantage of having one of our sons available at that time, that sort of thing. To help remind/plan, I have used 2 matching color small paper-clips on an upcoming card and a page/day of planner if it was going to be an important part of day for some reason. In general, I am not strict on times.
Usually on cleaning chores, I consider the cardfile a rotation, with no particular date having to be a "deadline" for getting something done. (Desk Day is way different of course.) But sometimes it's a big help to be able to say a certain day/time will be perfect for a job, if weather, help or enough time makes a difference. For houseguests coming, I try to think backwards, about what are the things I'd like to get done just before they arrive, the day before they arrive, that sort of thing, so the planner helps there.
Mom's day - I forgot some things, remembered some things. It was mostly a success.
