However, I do keep a a record of certain things in my planner, like if something special happened. I'll just jot down a note about it, but wrote about it in depth when I have a moment to journal. And since I don't get the time to journal every day, I keep a list of topics in my planner to refer to when I do get the time. It might be more work (and perhaps a little cheesy) but it works for me. So when I have a moment to write, I take out my list and away I go!WellPlannedLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14639851771653623399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-25638101104527278422013-12-14T10:07:54.572-06:002013-12-14T10:07:54.572-06:00Yup, a journaling girl.

I regret throwing away my high school ones, seein my kids struggle I wish they could see I did too. Its part of growing up, but now its just words. The journals would have made it real I think. Yup, peanut butter works great for mice because they have to work to get it off. Then lots of patience, we had one that was extremely efficient and it took weeks before we got him.

It's impractical to use as a "real" planner for appointments and such but every night just about, I've written a few words about my day. I also made a note of when I finished books and as a way to track my migraines. The front of the planner had a "notes" section so I would write the dates and titles of finished books and the dates and intensities of migraines. <br /><br />I don't think I'm going to keep this up in 2014 (the page-a-day portion) since I've gotten back into the habit of introspective writing every night. I have transferred the finished book list and (more importantly) the migraine list into my new ring bound planner.<br /><br />The migraine list has been a godsend when I finally saw a specialist! She said she wished more people took notes about their headaches.Vanessahttp://www.mixedmartialartsandcrafts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-35793381645389812772013-12-14T07:32:53.234-06:002013-12-14T07:32:53.234-06:00I love this!

I love to look back at my colorful pages. <br /><br />On the mouse- I've had luck with a live trap and peanut butter or bird seed. I was able to trap the little bugger and relocate him. They are tricky to set up but worth it if you can't handle killing it :) <br />Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04456511508659798664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-38286035454733030222013-12-13T06:22:53.701-06:002013-12-13T06:22:53.701-06:00I am experimenting with a bullet journal.

The one thing I really like about it is writing the most significant thing that happened each day on the monthly page.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097181254841548787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-1487858979895850592013-12-12T20:27:42.603-06:002013-12-12T20:27:42.603-06:00Thank you for this entry- I think I will start jou...Thank you for this entry- I think I will start journaling in my planner. I started to journal for NOJOMO-<br />and was using an old planner for that- but too inconvenient so the journaling didn't happen. <br />On a side note… I recently found my VERY OLD<br />"diary's". I was in middle school and wrote everything that happened in a calendar- too funny. But at the same time, there were some interesting events… a teacher strike, the year we were out of school for a week due to snow, etc. As much as I enjoyed reading those, I will def now be writing more in my planner about my days. (The calendars from high school I might need to BURN so my children never see the entries, "skipped school, went to party, etc……."

Not that my life was so exciting that it warranted it, but I just wanted to be sure I could be completely honest in it without fear of anyone reading it. I don't think I'd ever journal in my planner other than stuff like funny quotes or stories. There is someone at my workplace who once went through an ancillary staff member's bag, found her journal, and made copies of it. Pure evil. This poor girl had issues as it was but to have her private thoughts blasted like that for her coworkers to read, no thanks. <br />But I def do like the idea of On This Day entries into planner. I've tried to do that on my preliminary weeklies. It should come in handy if I ever catch up one Project Life.yezeniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15474206963830365458noreply@blogger.com
