    A Word From Jillee

    Nearly 14 years ago, I started my blog, “One Good Thing by Jillee,” to help me stay sober after leaving a residential treatment center for alcoholism. 

    Focusing on “one good thing” per day helped me find real joy and a sense of purpose in my role as a homemaker. It also connected me with so many of you who face your own battles, big and small, within the walls of your home.

    Now I’m taking my best tips off the pages of my blog and bringing them into your homes with “Why Didn’t I Think of That? 365 Tips & Tricks to Solve Life’s Little Problems,” a perpetual daily calendar featuring “one good thing” per day!

    Put this calendar somewhere that you’ll see it every single day. Let it serve as a reminder that you aren’t alone in the piles of laundry and dirty dishes and that you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. Together, we’ll navigate the ups and downs of homemaking, one day at a time.

    How to Use

    Your "Why Didn't I Think of That?" perpetual calendar is designed to bring you a daily dose of practical wisdom with minimal effort. Here's how to make the most of it:

    3 Simple Steps to Get Started

    Step 1: Find the perfect spot — Place your calendar somewhere you'll see it every day, like next to your coffee maker, on your desk, or by your bedside. This ensures you won't miss out on any helpful tips!

    Step 2: Create a Daily Ritual — Each morning, simply flip to a new page to discover a trusted household solution that can save you time and reduce stress. Read both the clever hack and my personal notes for maximum benefit.

    Step 3: Put the Tips Into Action — Try applying the day's tip when you have a chance. Most solutions require minimal time and common household items you already have on hand.

    Additional Tips for Maximum Benefit

    Understanding the Color Code: The different colors and symbols on the pages correspond to specific categories (cleaning, organization, beauty, etc.), helping you quickly identify what type of tip you're getting for the day.

    Pro Tip: Found a tip you don't want to forget? Snap a quick photo with your phone, or mark the page with a sticky tab for easy reference later. Some customers even keep a small notebook nearby to jot down their favorites!

    Share the Wisdom: Many of our customers tell us they love discussing the daily tips with family members or friends. It's a great way to spread helpful ideas and start conversations!

    Use It Year After Year: When you reach the end of the calendar (day 365), simply flip the pages back over and start again. The perpetual format means your calendar never expires – you can enjoy these timeless solutions for years to come.

    Mid-Year Flip: Based on your feedback, we've updated the page order! Now you'll only need to turn the calendar around once halfway through the year, making it even easier to enjoy your daily inspiration.

    Pro Tip: This calendar makes a thoughtful gift for sisters, daughters, friends, or anyone who manages a household. Many customers buy multiple copies to share the practical wisdom with loved ones!

    Why didn’t I Think of That?

    I really love it!!! It’s so much fun and interesting to get to read what someone else has thought 💭 of and shared with you!!! I read what each day has to say every day and to see if I can use that suggestion that day or not! Then if I think 🤔 that I would really like to use try it, then I mark the day with a sticky! I just don’t like how it makes your calendar 🗓️ look!!! My favorite date so far has been on January 12th with: “A paper coffee filter is the perfect tool for dusting TV, laptop, and tablet screens.” Is there a way to know if the suggestion was from Jillee or someone else…just curious 🧐? I only have one suggestion so far and that is adding the day of the week up under neath the date. I’m really enjoying the “Why Didn’t I Think of That”!!!!!
