Thank you so much Kristi! Your comments encourage me so much! Thank you also for the great info on what you like in a planner. This really helps, as the design is in the planning stage right now, and I am adding and taking away features. The problem I’m getting into is that I am up to two pages per day…so the journal will probably have to be a quarterly one, or it will just get too big. This increases expense, so I am considering making it a paperback instead of hard cover. If you have any thoughts on that, please let me know

I can relate to all of the journals, planners, schedules, and notebooks piled in the kitchen, by the bed, and on my desk! Over the years I've tried several methods and have even created my own planners and daily planning pages. What I end up doing most of the time is a combination of various systems – in a journal, I keep track of big goals and ideas (room to brainstorm and doodle is essential!); in a digital app, I keep a bullet point list of items for the week, month, and beyond (a short list of my journal goals to keep with me wherever I go); on list paper every morning I write a daily to do list and mark 1-3 items that are priority for the day. I also have a separate meal planning list.

Can't wait to see your Orthodox planner – I've been dreaming about one for at least two years now!

Hi Nancy, I like a bullet journal also! I love having everything together in one place, and it has inspired me too! I think you’ll like what I’m planning 🙂
I haven’t gone to Pinterest to search about it, but you’re right…I need to!
