Preach!

[mrscatfarmer13]

I've spent the last two hours trying to help a coworker fix her pc... I'm spent.

[sstwinklinglites]

I'm exhausted. Like, I can totally get back in bed and go back to sleep right now.

[mom2boxers]

Woo hoo.

[dogmama22]

Made it. Working a half day today and then I need to get my flu shot. I'm also going to buy a bullet journal today and I'm excited to start on it. I've been practicing some layouts in an old notebook.

I use the Happy Planner. I do not have the patience for a BuJo. I'd get upset every time my layout doesn't turn out the way I want it and rip the page out and have to start over.

I can't even finish a two year old baby book, much less a planner

I made DS a hair appt for 3:30. Delivery window for furniture is 3-5. Why?

[lindsay]

What's the idea behind bullet planners/journals?

[bazingaa]

DS1 woke up sick today. Not terrible, just a snotty nose and the beginning of a cough. Should mean he will be worse tomorrow. I'm starting to fear we will have to cancel our date night. That seems about right with my luck.

I've been looking for something for a while and considered the Happy Planner. I just always get frustrated when planners don't have enough room for things I want to add. I saw a YouTube video about using Bujos for people with ADHD and it seemed like a really simple, doable version. I also figured this is a lot cheaper way of figuring out what I really like and don't like. I've been spiraling on these Bujo YouTube videos.

For me, I just like the customization. You can make a page for anything at any point. I plan to use mine for work schedule, a meal planner and habit tracker to start. I'm big on to-do lists so I'll make sure I have room for those too. I basically just watched videos to see how I might like to use mine.

I'm the opposite. I really need the weekly spread ready for me. What I like so much about the HP is that it's so easy to customize without having to set everything up myself.

As long as it works for you, that's what matters.

[mrscatfarmer13]

I have a really hard time wrapping my mind around the idea using a planner. You (general) have to do what works for you, but writing everything down in one book just doesn't jive with me for some reason. Even when I was required to keep one for school, before we had all this technology, I never actually relied on it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That will be exciting! My H was surprised and excited but then life as usual for the 9 months after that.

[mrscatfarmer13]

I've been to 4 stores looking for a gold belt and have found a total of 0. I'm about to spray paint one I never wear.

[lindsay]

I heart my H. And a good reason to need extra calories and gain weight.

[chrispy1122]

Was out of town for a work meeting from last night to this afternoon. I was trying to get some stuff done at the office before the weekend and left late. Now I'm sitting in standstill traffic for 1.5 hours. I just want to go home.

Ugh, DH won't be home until like midnight. He's still at a store in Columbus.

[lindsay]

[chrispy1122]
