We have a Sierra Club member that works in our office and each year we are lucky enough that my employer purchases each of us a Sierra Club wall calendar or engagement calendar for our desk.  I always opt for the engagement calendar and it becomes like my right arm.  I record everything that goes on in our company plus all of my personal information throughout the year.  I n...

Whenever the New Year rolls around, one thing all of us need, is a new calendar. Sometimes you have to settle for what you can find, but this year I found a lovely calendar in Tuesday Morning. It is called "Angel Wishes" and the beautiful angel photographs are by Kathleen Francour. They are all of babies or children portrayed with angel wings. Each month has a beautiful angel picture,...

I got this calendar as gift, and I really like it.  In fact, I asked for another one this year!  I usually don't keep up with the, "Page a Day" calendars, but I kept up with this one, since scrapbooking is one of my major hobbies.  Each page is "Scrappable" and has different designs on it.  Each week there is a theme, wether it be nautical, racing, Pu...

I have a confession to make, "I am a shopoholic!" Hahaha. Not taken from the movie but I am a shopaholic. I just feel that retail theraphy is something that makes me feel relaxed. So, I bought this Shopaholic's desktop calendar. I should have posted this last January but forgot to do so. Well, due to the recession, I have to skip my normal routine and save on money so I just look ...

I have purchased Lowell Herrero calendars for many years. I am partial to cats and always buy the new cat calendar every year. Although I find the prices going up each year, I still have to have this specific calendar. I could not make it through the year without the one and only Herrero. Why? Because the artwork is so well done like no other cat calendar. He also does birds-cows-dogs etc... I ...

The software allows you to load your digital photos and gives you access to what is called the Kodak Gallery.From the Kodak Gallery, you can have your digital photos turned into prints of all sizes, in choices of finish (matte, glossy, waterproof). There are other ways to give the gift that keeps on giving other th...

For the last three years we have been getting the Disney Sixteen Month Calendar for our home calendar. This can be bought online or at the Disney Store or at the Walt Disney World. I really like this calendar. It starts in September of the previous year and goes through December of the current year. Each month has a new picture of either a Disney park, or some Disney characters, or a Disney par...

Everyone has a different relationship with calendars. Some like the tear-off day by day kind. Some like the kind that just have pretty pictures to stare at. Some like functional wall calendars that give you tons of space to write and helpful information like holidays and phases of the moon.  As a fan of near obsessive compulsive organization this calendar is a dud.  As a fan of Tim Bu...

This calendar is such a lifesaver for us.  My husband and I are both very active in the community, and our boys play a lot of sports.  Trying to keep up with everything was driving me crazy!  I used to have a regular calendar and I would squeeze all of our appointments into one little box.  Things would run together and get forgotten all the time.With this calendar, the date...

I have a desktop calendar in my office at work. Even though I have a couple of different wall calendars there as well, my desktop calendar is my favorite. It has a different picture of Thomas Kinkade's art every day of the year. I always look forward to changing the page. (At work, even the smallest little treats can help make your day a little better.)Besides the beautiful art by "The...

  This is probably one of my favorite Christmas presents last year from my daughter.  She knows I love Paula Deen and I need a new Calendar/Daytimer at the beginning of each year.  This happens to be the best of both of these.This is a hard covered spiral bound 2008 calendar/daytimer chalk full of Paula Deen's recipes, tips for entertaining and pictures galore.  It measu...

This is the time of year to buy calendars, and this one caught my eye for my husband's room. It is a 12 month 2009 calendar, with beautiful pictures of lighthouses. I gave this to him for one of his birthday presents, and we had a terrific time going through it, and looking at each picture. Our favorite picture was of a lighthouse that was on some rocks, with a house attached. A couple...

A nice way to start your day is to offer a prayer and be thankful for the blessings you have and for having another chance to witness a wonderful day ahead. I always do that and also check on my perpetual calendar which was given by a colleague.The Archies perpetual calendar consists of 365 quotations presented on a hard board and spiral bound. You just flip through a particular date to get you...

This calendar was the top selling black and white calendar in 2007 and I am not at all surprised!My coworker gave me this calendar as a Christmas gift this past year.  As a true fan of cats and cats doing funny things, this calendar was the best present ever!  Each day at work I am greeted by another amusing cat photo and caption.  It helps me to start my day off with a giggle or...

I'm a full-time college student who also works.  This means I have a tight schedule that I must stick to.  After searching for a few years, I finally found the perfect planner.  The Plan Ahead Weekly and Monthly Planner is perfect for college students and professionals.  At the beginning of each month is a monthly overview that lets you jot down important dates.  Th...

  Seiko watches have always been a favorite of mine. They are made of good worksmanship, quality materials, and have a lot of durability. This watch has a black face surrounded by a chrome material. It also has a second hand which some watches don't have, but I prefer to have a bit more precision so I can keep track of time. It also has a perpetual calendar which automatically adjusts ...

My Cute Pets slimline wall calendar hangs in my kitchen. The calendar is printed on glossy paper with clear dark blue type. Each day of the month has a small blank space for writing in. Saturdays and Sundays are shaded pale blue, so they stand out from the plain white weekdays.  Every month features a lovely photograph of pet animals or birds. One month has a picture of an adorable baby bu...

Don't tell my husband, but I found a pocket calendar book in Target, that I like better than the one he gave me as a stocking stuffer. It's got a pink leatherette checkbook type cover, and it's a lot more feminine than the other one. (And you know me...I'm a girly girl!)  It is a 2 year calendar from January 2009 through December 2010 (just like the one he gave me.)It has a...

This is one of my favorite holiday traditions. Every year when I was growing up, my parents got me a chocolate Christmas calendar similar to this one. When I had kids of my own, this was one of those holiday traditions I knew I wanted to share with them as well and I have been lucky enough to still find them every year.The calendar is a thin cardboard box  tha...

I bought this yearly desk calendar at Office Max for only $2.99!  That is a great bargain, as most places sell these type of calendar's for way more.I have a home office and I like to have a calendar that is easy to see and in front of me at all times, so this fits the bill.  It is very simple and plain, but I wasn't looking for anything fancy, just enough space to write some ...
