Today I was already thinking about my 2024 planners and was going to look online to see if any of them are out yet. Happy Planner is my favorite so I went there first and apparently National Planner Day was August 1 so Happy Planner has a buy one/get one sale going on August 1 – August 3 but only til 11:59 p.m. PT. Sorry for the late notice but I just saw this.
There are only a few 2024 planners but I found two that I like. I got the “Undated Kind Teacher Happy Planner“. I like this one for the menu planning, keeping up with what I’ve canned, what I’ve freeze dried, leftovers I’ve saved and which freezer they’re in, etc. I understand that writing out a meal plan for the week isn’t something everyone enjoys doing . . maybe no one but me, but I need that structure. I need to know what we’re having every day this week, and probably next week. I need to know what needs to come out of the freezer for the meal two days from now. I need to know that if we’re having roast beef on Sunday, I have to take the roast out of the freezer on Wednesday and leave it in the fridge til Friday, season it on Friday; cook it on Saturday so it can stay in the fridge overnight and the grease will be easy to remove before I make the gravy on Sunday.
With the big Happy Planner, I can insert pages for recipes.
I also ordered the Miss Maker Happy Planner. This will be my 2024 cross stitching journal. With the disk binding, I’m also able to add pages to this planner.
My planners will never win awards but I have fun with them.
