Good for you both dnancy and dharriet.
My weekly cards I had tossed before thinking I could just use the binder. I can see that does work. I also miss the 3 x 5 note bads of temporary things that come to mind. I also used to have a file card for errands and for groceries that i miss.
I don't even know any more what my weeklies would be.

I think thats why I fell behind like I did
today: work in 3 season room and in basement
walk
play with dogs
clean kitty litters
projects for school take pictures along the way
call dr. to change appointment

Blessed I did that too when I first went to the planner put my plan on it tossed the cards, and the planner sheets and did not think to keep a master of it.
I have a hole punch I can punch larger cards for my planner and make lists on the back of those, use 'em for notes etc.
I'm working most of the stuff in a mead comp. notebook for now and as I get ideas for tweaking cards I'll do them in pencil. I read on the chapter [March] for goals and dreams this weekend.
Put away Christmas tree, wreath, and Red Christmas cookie container cards x are up for me today plus

For 2012, I am back to P and P's weekly cards grouped by room/area. That's why I seem to know what I'm doing, blessed!
For my house, there are
Living/Dining
Kitchen
Our bedroom
Front bathroom
Our bathroom
hall/stairway/upstairs
and my ddad's bedroom
Desk Day
Errand Day
They don't all take the same time, so I'm trying to figure that out, and tweak by combining so I can spend about the same amount of time on each of 6 or 7 days a week - still thinking about Sundays. Because we've had "52-card pickup" with my ddad moving in, I won't know for sure until I have them all at maintenance and then time them. P and P had mending/handwashables as a weekly, too, for instance, and in better weather, I'd want to add in the porch/walkway. Also this depends upon dd13 continuing to maintain her own room and closet.
But the big question mark is, it's tough to clean after my ddad - there are problems all 'round and lots of questions with that right now, and that's why I can't necessarily call the front bathroom and his bedroom the quick rooms they look like they could be. Also, let's be honest - the ENTIRE other house is not even mentioned here, now is it? Right now Errand Day is a shambles of mini-trips. And when the grass starts growing... wow. So my Weeklies are definitely still " in progress ".
One more quick point on Errand Day - I really miss the part about getting the car clean on that special day. That is not happening.

Yep Harriet I hear you our car needs to be cleaned too I used to leave the car out after unloading groceries get the wrappers ect. out of it and do my purse too. ~Sigh~ with h. driving he puts the car away to prevent bird droppings on it. There is not really enough room to open the doors and clean it very well. Food goes in the trunk for access. With the weather cold it's not been a priority but I can tell that it needs done!
laundry x
bag up three bags of leaves for today x
granny duty x

Looked on the library web. site and they have a book I want so I'm happy about that! Yea!
I punched some recipe cards and put them in my planner for T.F.D.'s notes etc. last night.
I can put lists in it and this is the fun part now. I like to decorate the cards with stickers,
drawings, and use diff. colors of ink too.
This week I got a thank you card for the cookies I gave a neighbor during the holidays when they had a death in the family.

Today's
Cards; Notes & Ideas;
H. is leaving for work so I'll be getting to my
journal, working on my
Happiness File tweaks in a bit so that will be short lived as my
Ex. card is up at ten in
15 min. kitchen is ok but could use a bit of attn.

I've slept in today it's my day off. Working on my groc. list time to get new furnace filters so h. can
change furnace filter. H. got the filters but they are the wrong size.
I embraced my
Free Day Friday Card today with total abandon watching movies!
I did daily cards and a bit of cooking making cookie dough ahead for the grand-kiddos got ice cream cups for them also.
Dgd always asks for an ice cream sandwich then says no to the cookie! LOL! I did not bake them I'll wait for
baking day. I am working on a healthier oatmeal. I did some
Cooking Ahead some pumpkin the other day for
planned left overs and it's nearly gone. Soup is on the meals and menus for next week with the cold weather we have in the forecast this is great. I found a
Super Bowl Party Menu in my notes it was from the white house no fruit or veggies on it made me proud I"d at least thought of a veggie tray! LOL!
So here in the states it's
Martin L. King Day Mon. for a no school
holiday p.o. & banks will be closed also.
More granny duty too.
