I am continuing my planner/journal/diary set-up the same way each month this year (check out my March and April set-ups, if you missed them). May will continue this process and each month my process is getting a little more streamlined and easier to do. I start by pasting in a monthly overview calendar. The last…

Journaling: A Q2 Check-in
I feel like Ana and I are sort of running on the same wavelength. Each month she prepares for a new month by pulling out her best supplies, and making small changes based on what worked the previous month. I decided that since we’re just past April 1 (no fooling!) that I’d check in and…
February to March Planner Status
I can’t believe March is just around the corner! Since I will be in Baltimore for the Pen Show on March 1, I spent Sunday reviewing my planning/journal set-up and deciding what I want to do for the month of March. But first, let’s review a few pages of my February planning/journaling. I enjoyed my…

The advantage of setting up a planning system that is based on Bullet Journal/Commonplace Book/Freestyle is that you can start and end whenever the mood strikes. In January, I added the Midori Pocket Diary ($16.80) in my beloved leather cover by Bassy & Co (my conifguration…
Journal Supplies: Rub-On Stickers
Over the last few months, I’ve been collecting some of the rub-on/rub-down/transfer stickers. I grew up using rub-on transfer letters known sold by Letraset and other companies so the revival of rub-on graphics is a bit nostaligc for me. I have two brands to show: MU Series Print-On Stickers ($3.35 per set of two sheets)…
