C.H.a.O.S. {Binder: Planning}

52 Weeks of C.H.a.O.S. -- Week 3 {Binder: Planning}

Welcome to Week Three of 52 Weeks of C.H.a.O.S! This week we’re going to continue building our C.H.a.O.S. binders with the planning section.

The Three Bs: Binder, Brain Dump, Bullet Journal

The Three Bs -- Binder, Bullet Journal, and Brain Dump--are game changers for the born disorganized.

Man. Does my home need an overhaul. A makeover. Maybe even a do-over. We moved to Reno three years ago with what we could fit in our minivan. It took two whole years for us to get the things we’d stored in our old town and truck it home. As you can imagine, I’d already replaced just about everything necessary to run a house.
