Knowing these dates far ahead of time allows you to either arrange for a parent to work differently, or to find childcare if you need it.Ģ. My district’s schools are closed for the major Jewish holidays, and since I’m not Jewish, I would not naturally be aware that September 30 and October 1 would be when we’re observing Rosh Hashanah in 2019, but I know it now! And it’s on my calendar so I know we could theoretically take a long weekend September 28-October 1. Individual schools may also have half days for conferences, teacher in-service and the like, but they probably announce these far ahead of time too. Many schools publish their calendars far in advance (2019-2020 should be available our school board approved this calendar in April 2018).

I know people who use electronic calendars can just put in new dates whenever, but for those who use paper systems - or electronic folks who just haven’t sat down to think about the year! - January is a great time to fill in important things for the next 12 months. I use my paper calendar (At-A-Glance DayMinder weekly appointment book 3 9/16 x 6 inches) for recording any time-specific obligations or desires. I create what Bullet Journalists call “collections” in various places: books read, Christmas presents, RSVPs for a party, voice mail messages, weekend plans. Having read Bullet Journal creator Ryder Carroll’s work, I suppose I can see it (though I never would have thought to sell my system as a System - clearly a failure of imagination on my part!) I use my paper notebook (Mead notes, Cambridge edition purchased at Target) to write down lists of weekly priorities, and then sublists of daily priorities. When my podcast co-host, Sarah Hart-Unger, visited over Christmas, she looked at my notebook and calendar on my desk, and issued a proclamation: I was a bullet journal keeper, I just didn’t know it.
