I LOVE THESE VIDEOS. I learn so much and I want to copy everything you do. I'm going back through your old ones to see all the great stuff. It's all really inspiring. Thank you for doing these. I'm going to order a Hemlock & Oak Notebook today too!

In the future, could you tell us brand name/type/size/color of pens used? I zoomed in to see the Uni fineliner is 1.2 🤩 When you use the Tombow dual brush, I’d love to know the #. Thanks, Elizabeth!

the first compartment panel: flip so the tabs are to the short side. That way it will fitt the larger panel to the right? that way the mini will fit as well?

@mushroomglade
@mushroomglade 3 дня назад
You have the first panel the wrong way around. It needs to be re inserted so that there is half an inch less space on the wide side and half an inch more on the narrow side. This is why things are not fitting well.

I love Hemlock and Oak as well. I love how you set it up yourself from their notebook. When you use small planner shops stickers. You should write the name of the shop somewhere small on the spread so you remember when doing your flip through. Will also help to remind which shops you like to maybe check them out again in the future.

Thanks friend! And yeah- I know “florals” can mean a lot of things to people in the planner community and some people love while others hate. Sterling Ink does it well because she mixes them with other things!

Is this an undated daily? For me personally, I prefer vertical for weekly planning but totally change my set up often (I feel like vertical is less restrictive) but horizontal provides a great journaling/reflection area.

Let me apologize ahead of time, I’m winded and well yea, sorry for potentially long comment. That said, short version, 2021 Jan was working office (insurance career) my elderly mother got C19 🙈 she went from active 78 yo walking dogs, living alone, to bedridden and sooooo not good situation. I was thrown into home / family health care (career on hold). Started off getting less than 24 hours to prepare for new world. I had ZERO clue, Amazon prime was my bff, overnighted equipment to help lift her, wheel chair, get her bathed, restroom issues, new bed, bedding, bed wedges to not lay flat, etc. turning my guest room into a hospital room. (This was CRAZY to say least) Week by week, I lived, learned etc by trial & TONS of errors. I found my norm of digital notes, digital calendars, etc was NOT good, drs hate when u pull out your phone while they’re talking (they think candy crush apparently) so I jumped head first into analog planning world. Being a cheap cheap person I diy-Ed everything. Made passport tn to keep not only a running log of what I was doing for diet stuff, but keeping up with meds (names, reasons for, amounts, how often, etc). Graduated to ring bound ISH… 😖 can’t, just can’t smh. Now I’ve been binged watching your channel (guilty), I’m thinking discbound. I’m looking at any and ALL suggestions from you or any of your subs. I need something ideal back jeans pocket approved… I have almost a luggage cart when I have to take her to any Dr appt, any lab appts, getting her in n out of car is a task much less huge planner to carry. Most everything I write down I HAVE to leave in for future Q&A with new specialists or PCP. They want to know from what she ate, to meds, to sleep, to movement, to bathroom habits & tasks. Passport tn is good as far as size, however I need like 8 books because it’s so hard to make categories/sections for organization purposes. So I’m thinking after watching you, I ordered a mini disc with bigger discs? Any thoughts? Anyone? On your issue of needing something that frees you from being able to move things. I have a suggestion, I bought a spiral notebook, I’m too cheap for a Hobonichi, I use it for “memory keeping”, I’m writing things down from a personal prospective of my trail & errors. Maybe you could get your “glued book” fix on in that way? It would keep you with a book of important things to keep, yet allows you to get rid of those things you don’t feel is necessary to keep? Maybe? I’m sorry I just realized I’m 5 months behind n you probably have this figured out by now. Oooppss 😅 See told you, God I’m so long winded 🤷‍♀️ so sorry, just need advice.

Are you getting your step count from your Apple Watch. I use mine but am mostly stationary and but my arms are constantly moving. I’m wondering if it’s getting an accurate count. 🤔
@thejoyfulsojourn
@thejoyfulsojourn 10 дней назад
Yes from my apple watch! I presume the watch knows the difference between walking arms and moving arms, but I don’t know….does it say you walked 10k when you know you didn’t? 🤔🤔
