I probably haven't put on here how much my husband loves to organize things into spreadsheets. If he has a list to be made he puts it in a spreadsheet, if he has a pros/cons to go through - spreadsheet, for the budget, for camping lists, when we refinanced our house...spreadsheets. He loves them!
Me? I have no idea how to make a spreadsheet. I can read them, and even add things to them, but create them? No way.
How does his "gift" help me? If I need something in spreadsheet form, he's the man. Occasionally, I need one and don't even realize it.
For example. Last year I used this daily planner from Motivate Moms and I really loved lots of stuff about it. For $8 you can download it and it is really complete. I used it faithfully. For 5 months. Then, I got distracted. Then trying to go back to it, it just didn't quite work for me. One thing is I am not home every day of the week. I am gone 3 days a week and home 2 days and my husband is home one of those days I am at work. So that gives us 3 days a week to get everything done. So I considered buying this one instead this year because then I could see the whole week and mark things off as I did them.
But, I also considered making my own and tailor it to my needs. But, it ended up being in my mile long "to-do" pile and forgotten about. So when I mentioned to my husband that I was thinking of that. He immediately offered to do it for me. What took him just a couple of hours, would have taken me days probably. And I think it looks pretty good.
I know that there will be some changes to it as we think of things to add but I think it is going to work for us.
And as much as I would like to post a link to it here to show you how amazing it is. I have no idea how to do that. Apparently I am not as computer savvy as I like to think I am. If anyone can direct me to how to do it, I would love to show it to you guys. Otherwise, you will just have to imagine it's awesomeness!

Now why does it not surprise me that Adam luvs spreadsheets!
Quick tip... when you login to your blogger account you should have access to Google Docs, it is automatic with your Google Account. You can upload Excel Spreadsheets, Word Docs, Power Points just about anything. While you have that open you can copy the the link from the address bar and then paste that into your post.
When you are logged into Google just click under "More" and the drop down menu will show you "Documents", there will be an "Upload" button in the upper left corner. I love Google Docs!
I would definitely like to see it :) Been trying to think of something I can do for me too.
OOOHhh...I want to see it. I love list and spreadsheets
