Happy MLK day! I'm loving that I got the day off from work- what a nice little break to catch up on life!
As you may have surmised from reading this blog so far, I am a very busy girl and my life is "go go go"- running from early morning bible studies, to work, to Junior League, to social events! With so many to-do's constantly running through my brain I had to find a way to simplify my morning routine. You know how it goes... you are rushing to get out the door and all of a sudden you think of the 10 things you need for your meetings after work- and then you have to run around like a headless chicken trying to grab them all and hope you don't forget anything!
After a few stressful mornings I knew there had to be a better way- and that's when I developed my "tote bag" system! It's a pretty simple concept; I have a tote bag for each of my commitments filled with everything I need and in the mornings I can just grab the bag and know that everything I need is in there.
The pictures detailed below are for my "blogging bag" - My necessities in it are:
- My MacBook
- My planner
- An idea notebook (to jot down post ideas)
- Pens, pencils, and highlighters
- File Folders
- General office supplies (post-its, tab dividers)
- My blogging binder
Since it is all packed up, I can just grab and go when I am ready to hit my local Starbucks for a skinny peppermint mocha and an afternoon of blogging :)
