Are you a list maker? What are some things you do to get/ stay organized?

I'm a huge list maker. I have one going for packing for our trip next Thursday and a to do list for today and next Wednesday and Thursday. I've always loved making lists lol.

A big yes to lists! Without a list of to-dos, I'm a lump on the couch. I keep a running list in my planner for the week for chores around the house and a packing list for each person for our vacation next week.

I'm not a list person but I probably could benefit from one. My H is and it helps him feel more productive. I just run around like a crazy person - lol

I like lists! I keep one at work, and then usually have a notebook in my purse for personal stuff.
H and I have a shared grocery list, and then for packing and stuff I'll always make a new one.

I am not. I tend to be pretty organized naturally and just sort of keep running lists in my head.

i am list-obsessed-- to-do lists at work, lists on my phone of what i need at various stores, home repair lists, birthday shopping idea lists... every weekend i make a to-do list on the white board on our fridge and DH and i cross things off as we go. i keep a paper planner, though- i need to see the entire month at once so i don't like to write things in on my phone. although sometimes i do reminder alarms on my phone for appointments i might forget. i also use my outlook calendar at work for reminder of to-do items a lot. i used to be more on the ball, but my mind is in a million places at once these days, so i try to build in some failsafes for myself.

Yes, as needed. I am not obsessed though. I tried the planner life, and found I didn't really need it. We just don't have enough going on in our lives like regular activities yet. Appointments go straight into my phone.
Grocery and packing lists are musts. If I get overwhelmed I sit down and make one. I really need to do better about them at school, but right now I mostly live that what deadline/what do I need to prepare for right this second life. Maybe that'll be a goal for next year...

I am a list maker. I have a running to do list in my planner. Then I can break it down on the weekly pages. For some reason, I feel more accountable if I plan to do it that week.
Grocery lists are in a notebook that I can write down meal plans

Yes to lists! I am working to find a system that works, so my lists are kind of all over the place at the moment. I have a Panda Planner right now and I like the monthly/weekly pages in that. It has been helpful in separating out lists for work to-dos, house to-dos, general appointments, etc.
