In addition there are two printing options for each month: one with some suggested monthly chores included and another with that section left blank for you to customize as needed.
You will also continue to find my weekly planning page with a menu plan option but now I’ve provided several other alternatives as well including one without a menu planner at the top and one without any suggested daily chores. In addition, I’ve also provided a daily schedule planner to assist in thinking through those extra crazy days.
Turning the corner to focus on blogging, I’ve included several blogging helps including a blog financial register, a mileage tracker, a future posts brainstorming page, a post planner, a potential guest post brainstorming page, a potential sponsors brainstorming page, a monthly statistics analysis page, and a looking ahead page complete with an advertising tracker.
To help with social media side of blogging, I’ve included a tweet tracker (for all those tweets you want to consistently remember to send out or for those quotes you want to remember to tweet later), a twitter addresses and hashtag tracker, a daily social media checklist, and a blog party agenda planner. For details in how I use the blog party agenda planner, please see my post on last year’s agenda. It has seriously saved me hours of partying.
And it all comes with your choice of covers.
As with my 2012 planner, I have still chosen to create a weekly tear-off pad for the back pocket of my binder with my monthly calendar facing opposite. Again, the current month is placed last in the notebook so as to be displayed alongside the weekly planner when laid flat on my desk.

I also like printing the looking ahead page on the backside of the monthly pages. This helps me when I am trying to plan posts and make time for other activities as I set up the next month’s calendar. Other than that, I personally chose to print each of these printables front-side only. That said, feel free to mix-and-match as best suits your needs.

In addition, I have now added 8-tabbed dividers to my notebook sequentially labeled: goals, daily schedule, passwords, blog statistics, blog finances, social media, post planner, and calendar. You may or may not need a specific section so feel free to adjust and organize your printables as will benefit you most. I share that just so you have an idea for where to begin.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I’ve also included two bonus pages: a year-at-a-glance for 2013 and 2014 and a Dates to Remember for Next Year page for when those guest posts begin to line up at the end of the year and you are not quite ready to plot them out on the calendar yet.

Another awesome printable planner! Thank you so much, Kathy! Thank you especially for giving this away to your subscribers as a freebie – what a wonderful Christmas gift! I can use it this week as I enjoy the free babysitting services at grandma’s house when I take my annual retreat for goal-setting and planning
Hope you and your family enjoy a joyful and relaxing holiday! Merry Christmas! May God bless you tremendously next year and always!
I had a post from “Money Saving Mom” with a code for your planner that will expire January 2, 2013. The code seems to be invalid. Please help. Would love to get this planner.
Would like to have too if offering a discount as I am on a budget. I also can’t get the “Money Saving Mom” code to work. But if you offer a discount I will buy.
I also had a problem with the code. It comes up and says that it is expired.
I am so sorry you all are having trouble getting the Money Saving Mom code to work. I re-entered it and you should be good to go now. If not, please email me personally and I’ll be glad to give you the code. Have fun planning!
Kathy this is fabulous. I’ve been looking for a home and blog planner for the last few weeks and this one will work perfect for planning everything. I was able to purchase it with the code and download it with no problems! Thank you!
I am glad to hear it! So frustrating when technology doesn’t do what you want. Have fun planning. And, Happy New Year
Absolutely amazing! I just shared on G+. I’m subscribing as we speak!!!
Just purchased mine and really excited to put it to use…I love that you combine home/blog/spiritual growth all in one place. I have been on “blogcation/staycation” but this is exactly what I need to hit the ground running on January 7th! Thank you!
Well thank you! I’m glad you found it encouraging. Last year I had a struggle trying to keep everything in order. I had a notebook for home stuff, a notebook for blog stuff, a separate to-do list, and then all my Bible study stuff. It was just getting overwhelming trying to keep up with it all. This is the result of much try-and-try again experiences to make it less overwhelming. Have fun getting back into blogging!
Hi Kathy,
Thank you for your wonderful ideas and tools.
I have confirmed my subscription but am not able to see the link to your gaol planner.
Can you help me out?
Have a great 2013!
I just found your website and I have to say that it is awesome. I am wanting to download the Planner but can’t figure it out. Helpppppppp please.
Near the bottom of the post below “Want your own 2013 Blog-and-Home Planner?” is an “add to cart” button. Click that and you should be on your way. If you still have trouble with the download, please feel free to email me personally and I’ll do what I can to help. Thanks!
I love your tools I have been searching for the perfect ones all over the internet and finally came across yours. Your website is so colorful and filled with a lot of information. I just became a mom and I am having problems staying organized and on top of things.
Yeah! Glad you found it! And congrats on being a new mom. Personally I find the first year of new-momdom to be the most challenging when it comes to organizing. My saving grace was my daily to-do list of only 3-5 things. If I couldn’t get anything else done, if I knew I got those 3-5 things done I was accomplishing something and life would go on. LOL. Have fun getting organized! Hope it helps!
Your planner looks great I already follow you can I get the planner? thanks Sally
