I agree about old calendars being great resources for writing ideas. <br />Thank you for being a regular visitor. <br />Wishing you a joyful and healthy new year.<br />DonnaDonna Volkenannthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540727800410234483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-27528537698092072412010-12-31T09:02:26.006-06:002010-12-31T09:02:26.006-06:00Donna, count me in.

But when the new year begins, I get new ones for that. There is one in the kitchen, on my desk, two in my purse, and one in my address book so I can mark down when I mailed off a bill,cards, etc. I had mentioned in a previous post how old calendars are great resources for writing ideas. I also have to make sure that my main calendar will fit in my purse. Sometimes my favorites have been too bulky to carry. I like large squares. Thanks for the references for other calendars. We even received one from our fire department last week. Have a wonderful 2011, Donna. Thank you very much for noting submission opportunities and keeping us in the loop.Barb Hodgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192271482805073197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-8433743831709016342010-12-30T12:13:35.623-06:002010-12-30T12:13:35.623-06:00Hi Becky,

I will check out Kristensguide.I'm always looking for ideas and free stuff. <br /><br />Hi Madeline,<br />The calendar with photos of your niece and nephew sounds lovely. Italy? Oh, what a beautiful place. I'm not sure about what's up with Bylines Desk Calendar this year. I checked Sylvia's website and nothing was posted. But it's always a good one.<br /><br />Hi Cathy,<br />The monaestery calendar sounds lovely. I will check out their site and probably get on another mailing list of places to send money. The Beneficient Mr. Hall sounds like such a kind man--must be why you've given him the name beneficient. <br />Last night I looked over my calendar from this year and was surprised at how much work I'd done.<br /><br />Happy New Year to you and your family, Cathy. Hope it's peaceful, prosperous, healthy and happy!<br /><br />DonnaDonna Volkenannthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540727800410234483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-23276859824115427042010-12-30T10:36:09.409-06:002010-12-30T10:36:09.409-06:00Donna, if I forget to order my calendar from our l...Donna, if I forget to order my calendar from our local monastery, I use our freebie from church. The monks take gorgeous pictures from the grounds and use these wonderful and inspiring quotes. Plus, my few bucks help the monastery. It's the Monastery of the Holy Spirit in Conyers, GA if you want to take a peek at the other goodies they offer.<br /><br />The Beneficent Mr. Hall always gets me a desk calendar...I've used the one from The New Yorker for years (it's got tons of those NY cartoons inside), but this year he ordered one from American Express for extra-cheap. I use a desk calendar at night to write down all the writing stuff I did that day. You'd be surprised how often I go back to check on something.<br /><br />And I use the Reading Writers calendar, too. It's stuck up on my bulletin board over my desk. You'd think with all those calendars I'd be super efficient. Um, not so much. :-)<br /><br />(Happy New Year, Donna! May all your days be filled with love, laughter, and writing success!)Cathy C.

Gosh...too many to choose from, as far as the covers go, but pretty much all the same on the inside. (hey...kind of like people!)I still have to go back, also, and try to find the one that is Just Right for me!
