Master Schedule

To help me stay on track with what I need to do in the course of a day I have developed a Master Schedule. I have seen other post about using this and wondered if it would work at out house. It totally does! It is a guide so there will be some days it isn't followed perfectly. This is a typical day for us though by following this schedule I am less inclined to waste time. I keep this schedule in the front of my Home Journal.
