Good ol' Pencil and Paper

I know in these days of electronics, computer's and apps, it seemed strange to go to notebooks, calendar and pencils to do my planning and tyme management.  But I am a hands on kinda wench and I found that it was easier to grab my little calendar and check it than open up my laptop.  If I had a more complex phone I can't say that I wouldn't use it instead but I don't so I am working with what I got.  I picked up a messenger bag to carry my calendar, notepads (one for notes and todo lists and the other is going to become an address and contact book), sketch pads (never leave home without them), pens and pencils.There is a place for my wallet and phone and other items so it just became my new "purse". I think this system will work. It's been nice to have the notebook handy to write something down when I think of it. 

Then for each day or for the week, will go down todo list and fill in on a day and then make the goal to check each item off.  Still gotta work on a daily/weekly schedule so I can include all those things that are done regularly.

Of the things I needed to get done was get the background for my flash sheets copied so I can begin to create some sets.  I scanned in all the work completed to date after taking them out of the sketch books.  Was totally floored to find I had 35 designs total between 3 sketch books.  I had not realized I had that many.  So should be more than enough there to put together about 5-6 flash sheets.  Then go get them copied again and take them to my tame tattoo artists.

So far so good.  I am happy with the progress made thus far.
