When I realized, nearly 30 years ago, that there was a whole world of calendars beyond those that were provided to me by my employer, bank, or local card shop, one of the first product lines I discovered was Quo Vadis. I was impressed by the quality of their planners as well as the extensive variety of sizes and layouts they offered.

In my ongoing search for the perfect paper planner, I was very excited to learn last spring that Laura of I’m an Organizing Junkie had a wonderful Canadian product available to give away. Although I wasn’t the lucky winner, I was so impressed with Laura’s review that I contacted the designer/publisher, Corrie Bitner, and asked if I could have a copy to review for Your Organizing Business.

From the first time I saw an office products catalog, I’ve been amazed by the wide variety of calendars and planners. What was available back then seems limited and boring compared to the unique and colourful assortment on the market today, and I’m always excited to learn about a new product, like the BusyBodyBook.

Fall is one of my favorite seasons: the air is fresh, the leaves are colourful, and the new planners are available! Many people buy the same product every year or use an electronic planner, but I just love trying something new and different, so I was delighted to receive a life_time-mine planner from the folks at dotmine.
