Plan With Me

Hullo All,

I've not been particularly active this week as I've been absolutely bogged down with uni work so I'm glad to be back posting with a bit of a lighter load!

Since it's that time where we are all planning or looking to plan for the next month, I thought I would share my spread for the next week with you all. I am yet to do my cover page but I will probably tackle that on Wednesday.

I have a lot of great ideas in store for some spreads which as I do them, I will share with you lovely people.

First up, I have my weekly for this week.

Apologies to any language sensitive people but I've had a rather trying month and am looking forward to February in a rather tongue in cheek fashion. As you can see, I have only completed up until Wednesday, because I prefer to keep my days to their month.

Like I say, I haven't done my cover page for February yet so I'll probably add that to here later this week (time permitting). So I've got my monthly spread which I quite like, it's a new layout for me which I took inspiration from @my.life.in.a.bullet as featured on apartmenttherapy.com

I've got my calendar on the left with key dates and to do list. On the right, I loved @my.life.in.a.bullet's use of an expense tracker which I have shamelessly adapted for my own purposes. I've also done a mood tracker on this page to see if having my mood tracker on my monthly page will encourage me to fill it in: time will tell... I have a small calendar and box for next month so I can plan ahead. Then I have my most important box, my appointments box. This gets incredibly full at times and I like having just a separate place to put them, rather than in my key dates, where I tend to put stuff like birthdays and dates etc.

To be honest I'm pretty excited about this spread, it's a new layout and I can't wait to see how it turns out! :smile:

Last and possibly least, is my second half of the week. It's set up much like the previous week, because I like the continuity of the look, it will probably alter next week. As anyone who has read my bio, previous posts or comments may know, I am a huge fan of the mantra "Done Not Perfect" courtesy of Little Coffee Fox and I felt the quote on the right was a good way to go about it. (I'll include the author when I check my laptop next). For me, my bullet journal is about having fun and enjoying being organised and not making it a chore. And so far today... I think I'm starting to find the balance I am after.

Edit: To my horror, I have realised I have made yet another mistake on this page (aside from the glaringly obvious Saturday pasted over a mistaken Wednesday smh :persevere: )... Luckily my quote is reminding me not to tear the whole lot out and start again... I may even be able to edit it (here's hoping!)

Hope you've enjoyed this post, let me know what you think in the comments or if you have any questions.

Take care,
