It’s not quite a bullet journal

Since I’m fairly happy with my planner layout I am been playing around with other bujo type pages. I like the idea of a second booklet for some miscellaneous pages of things that I want to keep on paper, but are not something that I would put on a weekly spread.

Today’s feature are the two pages I shared on my Instagram yesterday.

First is When did I last… I am not entirely sure if I am going to get much use out of this because I can’t really think of anything I would want to track on here. I try to keep a weekly circuit of cleaning, so things like changing sheets and towels are already done on a regular basis. I saw an example where the user was tracking vehicle oil changes, but I don’t go by date so much as mileage- and I track that in my Owner’s Manual. I’m pretty much waiting to do something that I think I should track, or to think about something and not be able to remember the last time it happened.

Second is Things I want to Knit. This one is going to get a lot of use. I have a list of things that I want to knit that circulates in my head, but it doesn’t really do me much good when it comes time to cast on and I get distracted by something shiny. I don’t want a numbered list, because I want to knit what I want to knit, I just need to be reminded if things that maybe have a deadline – like Christmas Stockings for my sister-in-law’s new husband, step-sons, and newborn daughter.

Add a touch of as-yet-diagnosed ADHD and I get the feeling that I’m always forgetting something. And sometimes I am. And that thing is important. Like Parent-Teacher conference, or my wedding anniversary. Yes, these are both things that I have forgotten. Through a lot of hard work recently I have been trying to find things that work for me to keep everything straight. Now that I’m on track I’d like to share the rest of my journey with you. I use a half-letter size booklet planner of my own design that I bind into booklets and keep in a leather faux-dori that I made. I thought about going to one of the standard sizes that are available commercially, but I really don’t want to have to trim my paper down. I’m too much of a perfectionist about paper crafting – I hate when m...
