Buying gifts for my husband is hard. He usually gets what he wants after a little cajoling, so when it came to Christmas this year, the plan was he ALREADY GOT HIS PRESENTS throughout the year! But, since I am a major suck and a loving wife, I decided to really splurge and get him an iPod Touch. He wasn’t expecting anything (due to our previous conversations about “limits”) and he was thrilled.

Since Christmas however, it has been a gift that keeps on giving - for ME! Man, I LOVE that thing!!! It is so much stinking fun I want to use it all the time! Whenever I am nursing Ezra, I have to have it, when I need a little break from this house, I want it… It has basically come down to Paul asking to use his own Christmas present! Sigh. While I wish I didn’t love it as much as I do, I really, really do.

So - for Valentines Day… guess what Paul is getting me?!!! I think he just wants his iPod back - which I don’t blame him for at all - but I am completely thrilled with how it has turned out. Now - what does this have to do with organization you ask?? Everything! I think that is why I love it so much. As soon as I get it I am downloading this great app called “Things” which seems promising to have as my calendar. I can’t WAIT to get it (neither can Paul) and as soon as I do, I will let you know if “Things” is as good as it looks. In addition to a to-do list, I am also scoping out the grocery list apps, a budget/balancing checkbook one and trying to find a goal setting one. I think it will be a great way to manage my time, keep me paperless (and therefore less cluttered), on task, on time and in such a beautiful, slick package…. Wow. Seriously. Can’t wait! Do you have a great app on your iPod/iPhone that you love and can’t live without? I need to hook up with the good stuff! - Maja
