AboutOne (w/Giveaway!)
I have what is commonly referred to as “mommy brain”. Well, no, that’s not entirely true. It would be easier if I could blame the kids, but the fact is it’s just difficult to keep everything straight so I get overwhelmed easily. There is so much information associated with 3 kids, from homework assignments to grade milestones to school registrations to doctor checkups, that I’ve never known how to get organized, and stay that way.
I’m a big believer in keeping things stored on my computer. But even then, I had pictures saved here, text documents there, a calendar missing details somewhere else. There were files and folders in every nook and cranny that a laptop can hold. What I need is a digital filing system and more.
Or maybe an assistant. That might work, too.
Or an extra cup of coffee. Actually, I’m not sure if that would help, but it can’t hurt.
For Jedi’s first year of school, I was unprepared. I didn’t know what to do with the stacks of paperwork he brought home every day, so I just stuffed it all in a box. In fact, I still have two boxes full of his 1st grade stories and scribbles to go through and eliminate. And now that I’m going to have to 2 kids in school, there’s just no way. I’ll be sleeping on stacks of paper before too long.
With AboutOne.com, it’s made simple. All of the information is available to enter in a very easy-to-manage interface. Everything that I have such a hard time remembering is right there at my fingertips, without searching up and down and everywhere. There are spaces ready for all of it. If your child won an award, add it in. Important documents and that precious artwork? Scan, upload, and preserve. They know how to declutter.
But AboutOne isn’t just for school. There are areas for household expenses, even vehicle maintenance. It really is like an assistant. Only better, because there’s no office drama to worry about.
