CFI Logbook question

I just received my CFI ticket (finally decided to go for it) and now I
want to log flight training hours in a separate logbook. Any of you CFIs
have a suggestion for one? I've searched the usual pilot shops on line
and it appears that a logbook geared to CFI flight training doesn't exist...
It seems that would be a popular item.
I don't want to a computerized logbook (for now) since I don't have a laptop.
Which of the available ones (ASA, Jeppeson, et.al.) do you CFIs recommend?
TIA
Why not just use a spreadsheet? I use excel to keep track of all kinds
of things such as flight time, ground time, invoices, expenses,
endorsements, currency etc.. At the end of the year, I can easily
figure out all the financial information for income tax reporting. I
can also easily find my total time in each aircraft type for insurance
purposes. I can also sort the data for each student separately to see
how well they are progressing.
I only use my paper logbook for things like flght reviews and IPC's
where someone has to affix a signature.
Once every few months I take a printout formatted to look like a
regular logbook and put it away in case I lose my computer data.
