The To-Do list. This is one of the most essential tools in time management. The best to-do list is one that is written or typed rather than in your head. The best time to make a to-do list is in the evening after your work for the day is done so you can start your day ready to go in the morning.
Especially on warmer days, a picnic can make for a great date. Pack up some of their favorite foods in a basket and head to a park, beach, or anywhere you feel like eating! You can make the foods yourself or purchase them cheaply at a grocery store. The real magic of this date is all of the places you can go! Picnic downtown? Find some picnic tables or benches to eat in their favorite part of town. Go to a beautiful park. Love the beach? Bring a blanket for a picnic in the sand.
Be flexible, yet firm. It is important to make your schedule and stick to it, but that is not always possible. When something comes up that needs to get done, you must be willing to find time in your schedule to do it. That being said, it is also important to be able to say “no” if you plain don’t have time to do something. Some suggest you leave a few hours of your day open for unexpected tasks such as emergency errands or unexpected work. If nothing comes up, you have that time to work on anything left on your to-do list that wasn’t already in your schedule.
This one may sound expensive but it can be done for very little. Check out your local newspaper or classified ads. Many community centers, churches, and senior centers offer free or inexpensive classes in art, cooking, foreign language, dance, and many other areas. Spend some time learning and bonding. Art classes can be especially fun. Decide ahead of time to exchange your works of art after the class!
Don’t let your wallet keep you from having a great time with your date! There are so many other great dates you can plan on a budget. Site-seeing, local plays and musicals, shows by local bands, and more! Take some time and look around and fun and interesting date ideas will start to show up everywhere you look without taking a huge hit to your cash.
