Like many SOHO (Small Office Home Office) owners who don’t work the set 9-5 hours of employees, I’m constantly juggling work and family commitments. Remembering the milk is not so much a problem because I have a milkman (highly recommend http://www.aussiefarmers.com.au) and I keep an organiser on my desk to know what I need to be doing each day but lately things have been getting on top of me. The problem is not so much that I’m disorganised, but that the rest of the house is. (A bout of flu hasn’t helped). And if I’m at my desk all hours as many SOHOs are, the rest of the house doesn’t keep running as it should and I constantly get interrupted for minor things.
This week I had a chance to test run the new Did You Remember The Milk? ebook. It’s a comprehensive planner for the whole family inclusive of everything you could possibly think of – planning for day trips and holidays, babysitter details, meal planner, budget – not so much an organiser as an entire household system. It’s a housekeeper in print form.
I loved the eBook version but I think the binder version will work wonders because it will be accessible to those not yet computer literate:
