Short answer

Use one weekly note with sections for parenting time, schedule changes, money, school, medical, messages, and next steps.

Use the same sections each week

Repeatable sections make the record easier to keep.

Short notes are better than a long story.

Add source records

Link messages, receipts, school notes, or appointment records.

Do not rely only on memory.

End with next steps

Write what needs a reply, follow-up, or document.

This keeps the record useful, not just stressful.
