I am a self-confessed workaholic in every sense of the word. I like to be busy and I love having a full calendar. But lately I’ve been feeling a slight void. A lost feeling if you will. It’s been lurking around for the past couple of weeks and for the longest time, I wasn’t able to pinpoint what it was.
Then last night, it hit me. I am a little LOST. For the first time in a long time (possibly ever), I don’t have a goal that I’m working towards. First it was graduate high school. Then it was graduate college. Finally, it was get a full-time job with a salary and benefits. So now that I’ve accomplished all of that, what comes next? Settle down, stop spending my money on wine and H&M sales and start saving for the future? Because I don’t know if I’m ready for that.
This is totally normal right?
Confession: I’m not the world’s greatest at keeping track of myself and I often tend to appear a little scatterbrained. While I normally brush it off as a cute little quirk, I’m trying to change this habit in my efforts to become less of a post-grad and more of a grownup.
Enter the Whomi planner. After I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was a little overwhelmed, a lot of you gave me some great feedback and even more of you suggested getting an agenda where I could write everything down. I’ve had other planners in the past, but slacked off shortly after buying them because they don’t have the space/resources that I need.
What I especially like about the Whomi is that the left side is focused entirely on days of the week and the right side is divided into three different categories. Do, Contact and Shop. Perfect for keeping me blissfully organized and for once I’m not asking myself “How do I do it?”
Want one for yourself? Well there are two things I should tell you. 1: You can get it right now! Since the weeks are fill in the blanks, you can start organizing whenever. 2: They are available at the Container Store and other fine retailers. Something you can find out for yourself by clicking the link up above.
Happy Organizing!
These two are coming to visit! We haven’t seen each other since I was home in late July.
And we’re going to do a lot of eating!
And touristy things!
And go see this!
(Last time I saw it, I was 18 and a freshman in college. Something tells me that at 25 and living in New York City, I will have a completely different mindset to seeing it).
I can’t wait! Hope you all have a fun weekend lined up!
"1. At some point, you will feel like you screwed up.
2. You probably didn’t screw up."
— I’m catching up on blogs this morning and came across this statement on Jordan’s. Yes, in her case she’s applying it to her pregnancy, but it was one of those right comment at exactly the right time things when I saw it.
