It's been a looong while!!

Hi there everyone! It's been a VERY long time. 
So much has been happening since I last wrote. We have moved house, I have gone back to work after  finishing my maternity leave and my kiddos are now both crazy toddlers!
My planner systems have changed too as my needs have changed. 
I was in my Erin Condren Life Planner full time whist I was at home with the girls. It was perfect. All I needed was a space for appointments and to-dos. I even had space to do some decorating! (see previous posts for pics)
Last year I went back to work 2.5 days a week as a Grade 1/2 classroom teacher and the ECLP just didn't cut it anymore. My appointments, to-dos and day to day 'stuff' tripled and I ran out of space. I was lost. I tried MANY different planners to try and accomodate my work/home balance but nothing seemed to work.

By the end of last year I found an awesome work/home planner - my A5 hobonichi. I loved the yearly, monthly, weekly and daily layouts and they all served a different purpose.
Now this year I am working 3 days a week as the Primary Art teacher. I LOVE it! It has also brought out my creative and fun side again. Although the hobo is awesome, I missed colour and inspiration in my planner. So for the past few weeks I have returned to my ECLP and have added an AMAZING TEACHER PLANNER into the mix, the Erin Condren Teacher Planner.
Yesterday I uploaded my very first Plan With Me video featuring the ECTP tweaked in a way that works for me. You can watch that HERE.
I will be filming a Plan With Me for my Erin Condren Life Planner in the next few days so keep your eyes peeled for that one!
It's great to be getting back into the swing of things and looking forward to writing to you all again very soon!
Have an awesome week!
