Every other week, I find myself puzzled that the calendar proclaims it's Wednesday or Thursday. Like sand, my time slips by so quickly.
I lose track of my days in a mass of schedule juggling, attempting to fit so much into a little bit of time. It can be rough trying to make my life fit into bearable pieces. In the past, I religiously followed the Flylady system to make keeping the house bearable. Fifteen minutes can make a difference, but fifteen minutes cleaning doesn't help me when I realize I've missed an appointment or I'm late sending a form back.
Ay yi yi!
This summer has seen me my busiest yet. With The Teen looking at colleges, The Boy attempting to flex his independence, and The Mister in training, I have a purse full of notes that I can't keep track of, but I still seem confuddled.
I've tried various apps and systems in the past, and most have been decent, but not encompassing everything I need. About One fits this bill.
In an age that has found my pen and pad replaced by my Notes app on my device, it's nice to have an online organizer. Unfortunately, there isn't an app for the iPhone. Currently, the only app available is for the Windows Phone.
The most helpful part of this system is the medical form. As July barrels towards August, the back to school paperwork is beginning to make it's appearance in the mail. Some of the forms have been delegated to The Teen and it's easy to give her this task now that I can give her a neatly typed list of information about their pediatrician, rather than a hastily scrawled message I jotted on an envelope. I feel more organized already, and I am teaching my children a lesson in family organization as well!
About One is an easy to use site, the interface streamlined and clear to navigate through. Keeping in mind that people don't want to have a whole bunch of things to wade through, the site is designed with that in mind. Unlike to following video, the site doesn't try to be cutesy. It's straight and to the point.

ReplyDeleteI think straight and to the point is always helpful. I'm past the stage where I need an adventure to move on. I have learned to embrace my instant gratification life. :0)
