I guess this is less a rec, more just what works for me.
When I'm in really busy eras I have a night where I actually handmake a few months worth of calendars (like literally with a marker, and a ruler, and heavy paper). I hang them up on the wall, and I just start filling them up.
When the busy-ness fades I take the months down and keep them. Also cool because you have an analog record of what you did for a while.

Made this choice a couple years ago and never looked back. Marking down upcoming events and crossing out passing days just feels more real when you see it on your wall rather than your phone.
My past few calendars have been Star Trek TNG (make it so), but this year I decided to get a little more cultured.

the only system that works for me is having one big calendar in a prominent place at home and a small calendar I carry with me.
For the big calendar, I use a Poketo Spectrum Wall Planner. That’s to keep track of bills, social events, & travel plans.
My small calendar is a Hobonichi Techo Planner for smaller tasks, reminders, and lists.
when I’m good about using them, I actually show up to things & I’d recommend that!

I keep a Google Calendar. Yoga class on Saturday, the same yoga class I’ve been going to for 2 years? Yeah, it’s there. FaceTime with a friend? Yup. Last minute dinner with my cousin? I’m adding it to my calendar as I’m walking into the restaurant. I’ll go back and add an event or outing after the fact. I don’t care. I want to track my silly little wonderful life. Maybe I am this way because my mother still keeps a calendar filled with appointments and activities and schedules on the fridge.

These are my favorite food (only slight hyperbole).
I recommend, in no order:
-Kettle brand
-Kettle brand air fried
-7/11
-Lay's Kettle Cooked
These chips are so strong that they will burn your tongue. They are chemical perfection that make the systems in my body dance. They are so rock and roll. No matter what size the bag, I will probably finish the bag.
I always eat the folded ones first, and then move to the unfolded ones.

If you’re within an hour walk from home, you should just walk home.
I understand taking public transit or an Uber there to be on time, but you’re not rushing to get home. Thus, walk.
