I posted some puzzles last week of my 2012 calendar...it was Florida's Natural wonders. Some plants, some animals. I didn't bother with the beach photos. I don't save mine. I just transfer important dates over and toss it. When I was teaching, I always bought calendars I could use as bulletin boards. 2:11
Laurajane I just throw the calendar in the trash come January 1.... I try to keep every thing on a flash card like address and birthdays ... Love the picture they always have a lovely one on for December....
You gals are so organized! I don't write anything on mine, so I would only save it for the pictures. I write in a small, pocket-sized one I keep in my purse. Those I save for one year before throwing away. I also have a journal with the years as headings and write down important things that happened...in list form, not in a long narrative. Well, that's probably more than anyone wanted to know, but there you have it. You're most welcome, alfurn. Thank you very much, Morris.
That is EXACTLY what it is, Lyndee! I am so very impressed you have them back from 1977~! I started "downsizing" about 5 years ago...and now have a 3 year limit. They are a good way to look back on our personal history.
I have every calendar I've own since 1977 with the exception of one. It's interesting to look back at what I did throughout those years. Almost like a diary.
Every January 1st, I sit down with the "new"calendars and copy important dates (birthdays, anniversaries, etc) from the old. It's a journey back in time for the year. I save them for 3 years as a piece of personal history...then they are recycled.
