I’m totally with you, Sue – I much prefer having things written on my calendar than having to keep up with those little cards that just get lost in my purse. ha. I’m glad Siri sent you my way and you shared your motto with me – One day a time – that’s definitely something I need to hear on this day! Definitely worth writing in ink. 🙂

Something you might enjoy is that I calendar with half-size sticky notes. I think they are supposed to be page markers, but I write on them and even cut them in half because that’s exactly the size of one hour in my planner. So, I write on them in pen things like “teach,” “shopping & errands,” “exercise & shower,” and “clean.” I started this to save time writing down all the many things I do every week so that I can easily move the sticky notes from week to week, but I soon discovered that it was helpful because it still makes writing in pen flexible. 🙂 Friend running late for our appointment–I’ll move the “shopping” sticky note up or down a little in my day. I don’t know… maybe it still gives me a sense of control. ha ha Or maybe I just like the time-saver, already having everything I do regularly written down once.

So, I suppose, I typically write in pencil, but even the “pen” things are flexible because that’s how life goes whether I want it to or not. 🙂 Visiting from the Hearth and Soul linkup.
