Organized Chaos at its finest. In the form of an APP.

Here we go. This will be a first for me on the blog. I'm actually writing about an APP. The girl that doesn't use APPS {except a select few}. The one that fails to utilize her i-phone to it's fullest potential. So much so, that I might as well have a little flip nokia and call it a day.
But that all changed my friends when I discovered the wonderful world of Cozi.

This isn't a paid sponsor post. I wasn't ask to write this. However, if Cozi would like to reimburse me for pimpin out their product here on my little old site, then surely I will not object. So please, feel free to contact me. And give me your money. 

So let's talk Cozi. What is it you might ask? C-O-Z-I. Learn it. Spell it. Love it. 


A fellow co-worker of mine introduced me to this beautiful invention of an App. One minute we are chatting about family, organization, and planners. And the next thing I know she is explaining to me, what I think, sounds like a personal secretary. In the form of a robot. On your i-phone.

The basic concept: It's a calendar. A to-do list. A grocery list. Journal {little notes and pictures can be posted}, and meal planning IN ONE. Yes. One app.

Sounds like a headache? No? I thought so. And then I looked at it... and it was like I was seeing rainbows and flying donkeys {don't ask} right in front of my eyes.

DUH. Of course this works. It's genius!

Its geared toward families. 
One of my favorite parts about it is that you don't have to plug it in the computer to sync. You don't have to bump phones like some sort of bumper cars to get the information to transmit. It just does. So what I put in the calendar, the husband sees. What he puts in, I see. If I need something at the grocery store and the husband happens to already be there, he can see it and pick it up. And vice versa.

And no more husband texting me to "send me your schedule." He will have it right there on the app.

I can even leave him little love notes and a picture. And he can see it at work. Although this is like text messaging... but in a way different. It's a journal... so it's stored there with dates and such.

And best of all... you can even access this on the website! So if you absolutely hate typing everything from your iphone... type it online, on your computer, and it will automatically be there on your phone.

Your calendars are color coded. So are your to-do lists and such. So that you can see who has what. Elliana also has a color so I can have her doctor appointments. And diva classes to remember to attend.

Here is the kicker guys.... my husband loves it. And that? Well, that's purely amazing.

So if you have a family. A husband. Boyfriend. A dog. An imaginary friend. A donkey {seriously, long story}. Get this app. Have your significant other get the app. And make your lives that much easier.

And if you have a boyfriend on the side?
Well then, don't get this app.
Because then he would see your booty calls
And that would be bad news for you.

So. Any other apps my life has been missing out on? do share.

  8. I love Cozi, it is probably the app I use the most too! Sometimes I wish I had an ipad just so that the calendar wasn't so small and I could organize even better!
