TILT: Well Planned Day – On the Go Planner

Latte with The Queen Mommy

As much as I love technology, I have not been able to fully commit to an online or virtual calendar/schedule/life planner situation yet.  Instead I’ve downloaded free (or purchased) printables that I could use to my own liking in 3 ring binders or day planner binders – and they have been a great investment.

Planner Forms, Home Organization, and Challenges, Oh My!

Latte with The Queen Mommy

Maybe you know how much I LOOOOOOVE organizer forms.  Organization – especially Home Keeping – is something I’ve written about many times in the past, and has been a subject of research and serious study in my life for about 18 months. I’ve tried the Flylady – more than once – and even though her… read more »

Moms – Want More Time? Get Organized!

Latte with The Queen Mommy

As a mom, you probably wear many different hats – chef, taxi driver, maid, home keeper, schedule coordinator, planner, assistant, organizer – and more.  Do you ever wear more than one hat at a time?

Are You Stressed Out, Mom?

Latte with The Queen Mommy

I’ve been blessed in the past several weeks by the ministry of Cindy Rushton.  I’ve been able to listen to some of her audio recordings, download some goodies, and am really finding my way!  Her heart for the Lord (and her sweet, southern drawl) just reach out to me.  She reminds me very much of… read more »

Thought Full Thursday: Settling In… Gearing Up…

Latte with The Queen Mommy

Since I began my Stay At Home Mom (SAHM) journey over a year ago, actually BECOMING Keeper at Home has been quite challenging for me. First, I had to undergo a personal transformation that allowed me to understand more fully the value, the responsibility, the role that “Keeper at Home” entails.    Having worked after the… read more »

Ta-Da Tuesday – Moms Rock!

food-storage-giveaway1

Curly’s older cousin, Moe, gave her a Tshirt recently that is bright yellow with a hot pink graphic on the front that reads, “My Mom Rocks!” (I’d post a pic, but it’s in the dirty laundry at the moment…) I read it to her the first time she wore it, and now every time she… read more »

Latte with The Queen Mommy

So are you an expert Notebooker?  Are you new to the idea?  Are you still trying to figure out why anybody would take the time to put a “Home Keeper Notebook” together?  Just like any other organizational system, a Home Notebook is great for some and useless for others (although I tend to lean more… read more »

Ta-Da! Tuesday – My Basic Home Notebook Forms

I decided to go ahead and begin to list the Basic forms I’m using daily, and how I’m setting things up in my Home Management Notebook System.  Later I’ll post pictures and explain how I finally got it all set up. I have five general color-coded sections in my system: Food & Menu (Green –… read more »

Latte with The Queen Mommy

Searching the internet so much over the past year for help in my transition from working full-time in an office to being a full time HomeKeeper, I have read many articles on organization, housekeeping tips, menu planning, tips for frugal living, homeschooling, and more.  I kept reading about Notebooking.  Or having a Control Center, Control… read more »
