<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAnyway, I am doing “Tech Tuesday” a day late and, as I mentioned above, celebrating my new digital planner. Mine is from Only Planners<\/a>, and it was an impulse buy related to a general desire to streamline my analog life using digital tools, with a focus on the iPad as my main device. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I have been using it since the beginning of March, experimenting with the various tools and templates to plan and track my life. I still use Google Calendar and other web-based tools for shared events and reminders, but the digital planner has mostly replaced my analog calendar and tracker.

For now, I have stuck with their built in templates and particularly like being able to have multiple versions of the monthly calendar to track different parts of my life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I might suggest that, if you are considering moving in this direction, do some research as now that I have purchased the planner, I am getting lots of ads for others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What I haven’t given up are my morning pages: three pages of long hand writing. I tried it with one of the digital notebooks but didn’t like the “feel” of the pen and paper. I have seen ads for screen protectors that claim to mimic the feel of paper. I suppose I will need to figure this out as the downsizing continues. And then there’s the question of what to do with the 22 years of spiral bound notebooks I have. But I think that’s another blog post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I had this idea for different daily themes that would help me blog regularly. So, clich\u00e9 as it might be, I was planning on “Tech Tuesday.” So, I logged in, brought up a new post ready to right about how much fun I have been having with my new digital planner, only to realize it’s … Continue reading Tech Tuesday A Day Late<\/span>
