While browsing thru Walmart the other day, I came across an end cap with a lot of Leisure Arts products.  Two of them interested me.  The Gel Pens for some reason looked like something that I might use.  The Planning & Journaling Accesory Set intrigued me because I thought they might fit into my Happy Planner.  The pages were punched in the same manner as my Happy Planner classic.  Since both were fairly reasonable I bought them.

The Gel Pens are pretty good quality.  I did have one mishap because a pen leaked in the box.  Trust me to probably find the one box where a pen leaked.  But the rest are okay.  They write really smooth and the colors are bright and true to the cap color.  There are 36 in the set I bought.  But they do come in smaller sets as well.

The Planning & Journaling pages do indeed fit in the Happy Planner.  They are punched the same and fit right into the discs.  The only difference is the pages are slightly bigger than the pages in the planner.  But I intend to use these with an old planner for a project, so that doesn’t bother me.

I have been trying for some time now to get myself better organized when it comes to dealing with my Social Media posts.  It gets very confusing when you’re trying to do it all.  In order to keep up with it I created my Social Media List.  The list is created as a spread sheet for the week from Monday to Sunday.  Down the side I put the various social media platforms that I use the most.  I listed Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Blog, Etsy and Snapchat.  Okay, technically Etsy is not a social platform, but in order to keep with what I need to put new files on Etsy (and to keep me working on it more) I added it to the list.

I set up this form so I can use it in my Happy Planner.  It will print in landscape form on an  8 1/2″ x 11″ paper.  So after printing it can be easily cut down.  I cut it down to 7″ x 9.25″ (actually I move it to a notch under 9.25″ to get it to fit better)  Then it can be punched and put in the planner.  Originally, I created this list on Microsoft Word.  If you have the program and want to use it I am including the DocX file.  So you can download it and use it in Microsoft Word and just fill in the form as you want.  Once you download it you can also use the table and resize it if you want to fit other planners etc.  You can download the file by clicking here: Social Media Schedule DL   If you don’t have or don’t want to use Microsoft Word, you can also download a JPG file.  The JPG file can be downloaded here: http://bit.ly/2iFo2B3  It will be sized to fit the Happy Planner, but it is still usable as a table.

I have been using this table for about a week now and it has made a big difference in my keeping up with social media.  If you’re a solopreneur like me it may be useful.  Hope it helps you.  Enjoy!
