Dear FlyLady,
Do you write things on your calendar like breast exams even when you don’t know when the appointment is yet? Or to have the car serviced? I am afraid my calendar will be messy?

Dear FlyBaby J.
Procrastination is our middle name. This is why we have an Anti-Procrastination Day! Wednesday is always the day for us to take care of the things we have been putting off.
Think of your calendar as your memory! You put things on your calendar so that you don’t have to try to juggle them in your mind. You have too much to do. Allow your calendar to help you! All you have to do is remember to check your calendar three times a day; Morning, Noon, and Evening! When an item is on your calendar you can release it from your mind till it is time to take care of it. Then the “Do It Now” Principle kicks in!
I would suggest that you put these items on a small hot pink Post-It Note! Get those appointments made. You can only skip one Anti-procrastination Day! Place an X on it and move it to the next Wednesday. To help yourself get it done; look up the phone numbers right now and put in the Post-It Note.
Now think about when your car will need serviced before you go on vacation or later this year for Thanksgiving and Christmas travel. I like to change my oil with the change of the seasons. If I have not been traveling then I can do it in the spring and fall.
Here is a link to our Home Maintenance Control Journal.
Here are the reminder label pages that go along with the Home Maintenance Control Journal. These are formatted to be printed on Avery 5167 labels. You can also write them on small Post-It Notes. Don’t allow your perfectionism to get in the way of taking care of yourself, your home, or your car. Your calendar is made to be used.
Our calendar has huge squares that are large enough for all your reminders. Use your calendar to keep your home, car, and body maintained!
Use stickers to keep your calendar colorful and fun!
Sit down with your calendar and get some things on it. What good is an empty calendar!
