Calendar Switch-a-roo
Yay! For the New Year! The best thing about the new year for me is the New Calendar and the annual Switch-a-roo! What is the Calendar Switch-a-roo you ask?
Well, do you have problems remember birthdays? Anniversaries? Any holiday??! Well the Calendar Switch-a-roo is the cure all for all those brain deficits!
Calendar Switch-a-roo
Step by Step Instructions
- Take your old calendar down
- Buy or make your new calendar
- Lay both calendar’s side by side on your kitchen or dining room table
- Now, go through each month and write down all the birthdays, anniversary’s and other important life events that you happened to scratch onto your old calendar during the past year! OR Log-in to your favorite social networking site, and write down all the birthdays of people who you deam worthy enough to give a birthday card or present too. Now write these names on your new calendar on the date of their birthday or anniversary!
- Once all your dates are transcribed (I use one colors for birthdays, and another color for anniversaries.. etc), hang up your calendar.
- Now, look at it every now and then, and you’ll know when it’s time to start sending those belated birthday cards (or e-cards).
- Repeat, every year.
- You can even add new birthday’s and annual events (like your favorite movie festival, or opening day at your local skating rink), as they happen, then next year you’ll know about it too!
Now, the next time you hear someone say, ” I can never remember Birthday’s” tell them about the great Calendar Switch-a-roo!
Side Note: The past two years we’ve had the “official” Ansel Adam’s calendars, and we were surprised to find that yes, they are cheapskates they repeated the same images on several months! Sometimes the same months! Although it was pretty cool to find in the 2009 calendar a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge, and then in 2010 calendar a picture from the same spot, pre-bridge!
