My daily planning calendar has to have 2 pages per day. For tax purposes and to alleviate ADD (ugh), I need to have one page that is a sort of journal, keeping track of where I spend my time and notes from the day. My daily planning calendar has:

Schedule from 8am to 11pm

Waiting For Followups (where I schedule a follow up when I write something down in the “waiting for section”)

Expenses (where I jot down any expenses for work for the day – great for tax audits)

Task List (where I have written down anything I needed to schedule to do that day)

(GTD Component) A projects list is a list of projects and their due date. No description or itemized actions. Put itemized actions under their appropriate context lists.

David Allen (the creator of GTD) suggests that a projects list is simply a list of projects, their due date, and that’s it. You save all the action items in a projects list for those Next Action lists that you have organized by context.

My Waiting for / pending list covers all the things I cant scrap but cant work on right now because I am waiting for an action from someone else.

They cover things I have delegated to other people, or things upon which I am waiting for a phone call or other information, and the like.

The fields in my waiting for lists have to include a follow up field, so that I can schedule that follow up field in my calendar, and if I havent gotten the info I need, then when that day comes, I am properly reminded.
