Hee hee, you are like me, I am always writing bits down! My problem is I look at them again and then can’t remember what they mean! LOL

:lol: I could remember what they mean—if I could only read them!~skt

This is great! I am so glad you posted it! I hope no one ever analyzes why we do this to our calendars! The only real difference in mine in the past (I haven’t kept one in years) and yours is your ability to write at the angle you did for the mosquito bit. . . and the orange ink. . . and the shape of your doodling. . . and the sayings that made sense. :lol:

Marcia, I write with whatever pen I can snatch away from a little kid in passing. The calendar is on top of the bookshelf, and I stretch to reach it from wherever I happen to be standing. The doodling is something I do and don’t even know I did it. I hope no one analyzes it either.~skt

That’s awesome. Looks like how I think!

Oh, Karen…I hope you don’t really think like that! I’m so scatterbrained that this is an excellent illustration of it! :lol: ~skt

So do you keep your henscratching just in this organizer or do you henscratch everywhere…like me?!! lol!!

Oh, EVERYWHERE! Nothing is sacred! Thanks for dropping by.~skt

Is this a 9×11, it’s got to be, amazing! So little time and space for your creativity.
Thank you for sharing!
LOL- mine is all on my pda, pretty boring, but effective!

I’d be scribbling all over the pda! :lol: ~skt

This is great…my henscratch is all over post its! At least yours is organized all together in one place. :)

Before I worked with a calendar, I had post its all over the dashboard of my car! How scary is that?~skt

Amy Grant May 22, 2007 at 10:27 pm

So that is where my calendar went! ;o)

Seriously, this looks just like what I do to mine… yours is actually more artsy though!

not very artsy, Amy. Mostly messy. I was a little ashamed to show it, but it sounds like I’m in good company :lol:

:lol: Looks like mine! I thought I was the only one with a planner that looks like that – do all your To Do Lists end with “See other list” like mine too? Happy WW!

:grin: Yes, my lists are like that, too! Unfortunately, I never get to mark anything OFF the list!~skt

Oh that is definitely a crazy calendar. I can’t believe that you actually can keep track of anything like that! I must admit that I have the same tendency to write things down every which way. At work I have a large pad of paper, but I’ll write notes randomly on different pages. This makes it extremely hard to find. I guess this doesn’t really have to do too much with this picture, but your crazy note-taking just reminded me of my own.

In any case, if this helps you write more interesting posts, then I’m for it!

Derek, I didn’t say I actually can keep track of anything! I just never remember to have a tablet with me, and scraps of paper get lost, but the calendar never does. Thanks for visiting.~skt

You definitely should frame a page of this – like street art. Love it.FAT BLOKE GETS FIT!: Wordless Wednesday – Family matters…“>

I have walls that are covered with worthless stuff :lol: I don’t need anything else…especially not this! Thanks for visiting. I enjoyed seeing the cheetahs you posted.~skt

same with the above comments its a work of art.

I appreciate you stopping by! I don’t think of this as artwork…just scribbles. However, YOUR Wordless Wednesday is so serene and calming.~skt

Looked like my calendar when I was in school. Great art work.

Thanks, but it’s not as good as the picture of your niece that you posted!! THAT is artwork.~skt

Kara May 23, 2007 at 5:29 am

how did you get a hold of my calendar! Love it!! :lol:

I’m sorry, Kara! If I had known it was yours I wouldn’t have scribbled all over it! :lol: ~skt

I like it! Looks like you have a busy life.

Not as busy as your life on a farm! I’ve bookmarked you and intend to give you some link love!~skt

Patois May 23, 2007 at 7:10 am

And I thought mine was bad. I feel so, I don’t know, downright lazy looking at how filled yours in. Another inadequate mother moment.

Oh, please don’t feel inadequate…just feel free to junk up your calendar, too :lol: ~skt

When you can’t read your own then you have problems!

Oh, I definitely have problems :lol: ~skt

Hey, did you steal my day planner?? Just kidding, it looks a lot like mine. Nobody can understand my code but me! Have a great day.

No, the day planners of creative people all look alike :wink: ~skt

dawnae May 23, 2007 at 8:32 am

It does kind of look like a work of art! Or somebody who is really super busy! :shock:

It doesn’t look like art to me, especially when I can’t find what I need! :wink: ~skt

Aldon Hynes May 23, 2007 at 8:49 am

I’ve often wanted a webtool so I could add hen scratches (or in my case rooster scratches), to my website in a manner similar to your calendar.

That would be cool, Aldon. I could mess that up pretty badly! ~skt

Put’s the “fun” in dysfunctional. Sounds like some folks I know.

Your useless calendar shows a great writer at work!

I posted pictures today, but with lots of words. ;-)

Fun in dysfunctional is now my motto! I hope to get by to see your pics~skt

TeaMouse May 23, 2007 at 10:11 am

So did you find the black loafers? You are one busy lady – my calendar doesn’t look anything like it, probably because I don’t write stuff down. I have this bizarre idea that I can actually remember everything I need to do. Then I realize I can’t so I attach sticky post-it’s to my monitor at work…lol!

Great Wordless pic!

Nope, never found ‘em probably because my closet looks like this calendar. :lol: Does your monitor look like my calendar??~skt

I’m glad you can make sense out of all that..cuz I’m lost. My wife is the keeper of the calendar..so I have nothing like this to share. She is freakishly neat and has a strategic system by which she fills in the calendar. I’d make something more liek yours…which is why I’m not allowed to.

Happy WW – stupid Google isn’t working and I can’t seem to pull up any blogspot blogs. Oh well, at least I got mine up before it went down.

That looks suspiciously like MY calendar, right down the use of many colors and cryptic notes in the margins!

You used my pen to write all that. I can tell. I want it back.

I told you before you could have your pen back if you will come see me! I will give you a truckload of pens! But, NOOOOoooo. You are too busy. Like you think those kids rate before I do? :lol: ~skt

Unlike me, some people are actually organized! My calendar is mark free, and I’m always forgetting appointments etc. I could learn from you, but I probably won’t! :P

Those aren’t appointments on there…you don’t EVEN want to learn from me! :wink: ~skt

Kristy May 24, 2007 at 5:09 pm

Another great idea for WW. I’ve hit a dry spell the last few weeks. Hopefully a 3 day weekend will inspire me.
