Have you changed your calender to February yet?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203) 4 years ago

This is kind of like a "how lazy are you" discussion :) I have spent all day starring at the teeny tiny Febraury box on the "next month" spot of my calendar. Meanwhile, it's still set to January. Why is it that I am so lazy about this? It takes 10 seconds to take down my calendar, flip the page, and put it back up! But it seems that whenever I need to know a date real fast, that is when I notice the calendar isn't flipped yet, but at the same time I don't want to lose my train of thought :-D

I'm finally flipping my calendar to february after looking at the mini-feb square for the whole day :) It finally bothered me enough to get off my butt and flip it!

How about you? Do you leave your calendar or are you real meticuluous about flipping it as soon as the month changes?

i am not that lazy though i keep thinking that it is still january because today was the first day at work in the month of february! i guess that old habits die hard and i am just used to writing january. Yay, spring will be here soon!!!


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

I know what you mean! I'm surprised how easy its been for me to start writing 2009 :) I think it's because my nephew only knew the number 9 for the last few months so I always said he's getting us ready for 2009 :)

Haha, I am way ahead of you today! I flipped my office calender when I left for the day on Friday afternoon. I was all set for February today! Now as for my small wall calender, I see it is still on the January page...so hang on a minute and I'll flip it over too! Ok, all done! I keep the wall calender up just for the nice photographs :) I tend to forget to change it every month for some reason! I remember one month when I noticed that it hadn't been flipped it was 3 months behind! Now THAT'S lazy!!


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

Haha on Friday I remember saying to myself that I should do that, and then I didn't!! I totally forget b/c, after all, it was Friday and by the time it hit 5 I just wanted to go home :)

I have known ppl who don't flip the calendar if they really like the current picture, however I really need to see the date constantly during work, especially when I'm scheduling things. I know we all have calendars on our computer, but when you are in the middle of an email it's easier to glance at the wall and see the dates.

I had a CW once who did that, left it behind for months! Everytime I came over she'd say "oh I gotta change that calendar" and then never did. Haha.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kareng (3747)  4 years ago

I have to admit that I use my desk calender for most things. The one on the wall is for the pretty pictures :)

I actually have done that but this year my goal is to be more organized and we have this new calendar -and I have changed my calendar and have all my sons school information written down, it is just another way I am forcing myself to be organized, LOL, I know this wont happen over night, but I am taking baby steps and soon I will be back on the track to organized!! LOL thumbup


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

That's good. We are trying to be more organized too. We use a google calendar that we share so that we always know what's going on. My husband will say he's doing something next thursday and I'll say "is it on the calendar??" haha. I joke that he can't do something unless it's on the calendar :) It really does help to keep stuff written down because then you aren't sitting there stressed about it all month wondering "what do I have to do this month???" And you also don't have the last minute stresses when you forget an appointment and suddenly get reminded of it.


myLot reputation of 99/100. bookreadermom08 (2102)  4 years ago

oh yeah, LOL, I have been there forgetting things...that is another reason why I have decided to become organized this year!!!

Oh, its February already? My calendar is still stuck on December from 2008. I guess I need to go out and by a new one with the current year. Even when I do I'll prolly turn it to January anyways and be stuck there for a few months. Who says you can't live in the past, lol.


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

Ha :) That is one thing I am good at is bringing in my new calendar. I get a lot of them from places I've donated to in the past, so as soon as I get it in the mail I put it in my work bag and bring it in right away.

i think you are more laid back than I am suzi!
And congrats on finally welcoming in Feb, worthy of it's own page even! haha

To be honest, sometimes I am late by a day or two myself. But I have things like hydro meter readings etc on a monthly basis that is my reminder, so I gotta keep the months flippin' pretty much on time...
But the effort....ugh...to actually pull myself to my feet....and WALK! the whole way across the long long long room and 'reach' (mine is hanging from the cealing....{don't ask}) up , unhook.....and f-l-i-P ! the page.....whew, I'm exhausted, just thinkin' about it..

myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

We use our Outlook calendar for a lot of things so sometimes I just don't look up at the wall for awhile :) However, in general it's easier to look at that calendar on the wall than to open one on my computer so I always notice within a few days.

Yeah getting up is the hard part :-D haha. I don't even have to walk! I just have to stand up and reach!!

I'm glad you said that! Today is my official day for turning over the calendars in my kitchen. One has kitties and the other is a magnet on my fridge. I'm so used to the time being changed automatically that I almost forgot! thanks!


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

no problem :) Glad to remind you! Now that you mention it, I haven't checked my calendars at home yet.

Ok this is funny. I looked up at my calendar and it's still on December! The one at home is changed but clearly I need to bring a new one to work!


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

Haha, you are the second person that said that. I think a lot of people don't care in december and don't think about getting a new calendar b/c we are all so excited for the christmas break and new years break :)

You know what, I don't have to worry about changing my calendar anymore because I use digital ones that adjust by itself. Hurray for technology! I look at my desktop calendar and the one on my cellphone. Those are the only 2 calenars that I use for my day-to-day activities. i think it's a lot simpler this way. When you need to tear your calendar or flip it to the next page, you sometimes forget to do it. But it's very easy to do anyway it shouldn't be a problem at all.


myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

Well I do use the desktop one and the cellphone and the Outlook one, sometimes when I'm in the middle of an email and I just need to write the date for something, I just want to glance up. What day is next Thursday? All I gotta do is look up and see rather than opening other things.

myLot reputation of 99/100. vivasuzi (2203)  4 years ago

Well I guess if I had a reason to look at my calendar on Sunday I may have remembered :) But I had nadda to worry about!
