Thank you!!! If anyone wants to try the Paper Penguin Co inserts but isn't ready for dot grid, I use these inserts in grid and find the print light gray enough that it doesn't interfere with my writing. It's a great transition and allows me to enjoy the inserts also.
Gosh! I *hope* stickers count as an artistic talent - because that's about all I can do. :-) Enjoyable and informative! Thank you so much for taking the time to share.
Finally gave in and started using the dot grid for my daily a few months ago. Was a little intimidating at first. Getting into my groove now and really loving the freedom it gives me to use it as I need depending on the week or the day! Thanks for the inspiration !
Thank you! Learned a few tips I didn’t know I really needed! I don’t know why I never thought to put my plants on a watering schedule in my planner. Maybe if I had I would have stopped killing them. 🤪. Going to add them in from now on along with a note on any special needs for the plant if any. Thanks again. Like I said I learned some great tips/ideas I want to add to my planning.
I love your daily method. I might try this out for myself! Thank you for sharing this with us. I also love those polar bear stickers with the scarves. They are too cute!
I’m thinking you must be a nurse, like me. You sleep crazy hours and you described the weather as “labile”. That made me laugh. Bingo! You just told us you are a nurse.
I’d love to see your work planner. I feel that I have to keep separate planners for work and home life, but I don’t want to make my life more complicated than it’s need to be. Also, while I like my digital tools, I’m also a person that often ends up with a dead phone so I. Very reluctant to keep work essentials in my phone for “easy access”.
We are very similar! I don't rely on my phone for anything. My work planner is definitely more of a living filing cabinet of resources, as all my deadlines and appointments are kept on the calendar in my personal planner. I'm working on recording my work planner next. Thanks for the encouragement!
Really great stuff. Been enjoying your videos for awhile now. Also looked at your blog--good job. I also got a lot of very useful stuff out of your video of your weekly review. Just proof that even after years of doing planning, I can still learn something! Thanks!
I love your account and i love your videos 🤗 they are so helpful. I understand why this system works for the long haul 🤗 hope to implement parts of your system in my planner 🤗
Excellent video. Your planning style makes sense. So much fun to hear you're a nurse. I'm a nursing student going on my last semester. Yeah. anyways.. I love for grid too, but I'm in a pocket, maybe switching to an A6 size. I'm curious if you have plans on making a video of how you do budgeting or finance section? Thank you for lovely videos 💕
Love your planning process that has such great function. Always looking forward to your next video. Thank you for sharing. I set my dailies up in the beginning of the week so that it is ready to write on immediately and that is because I use a different pen to write out the dates and highlight as well. So I do not want to have to keep those items out. I understand why you do it this way and it seems logical especially if there is nothing to plan for that day. Do you keep it open just in case your day has greater information, journaling or note taking? I apologize if I missed it in the video. Big Hugs!!
Hi I just read the GTD book and am trying to implement the info using my B6 stalogy and travelers notebook. Do you use your daily pages as your “inbox” writing as a “bullet”, and then transfer the info to its appropriate place at another time? Love watching how you manage and use your travelers notebook. I am a new subscriber.😊
Thank you so much! It's a standard size travelers notebook or Standard TN. (Literally, that's the name of the size! 🙂) Some shops sell accessories labeled as "narrow" so I recommend always checking measurements.
I really enjoyed this video and I’m hoping to implement more of this style into my everyday planning! It was so helpful, thank you! What pen do you use in your insert? I have a pen that I love, but once I started using it on tomoe River paper, it has caused me a lot of problems.
Hi Amanda..I have a question for u..well.first I'm a new subie..luv watching these type of videos..thanks for sharing..my question is do u happen to use regular planners..the reason is bcuz I don't own a traveler s notebook..that is new to me..rhanks..
I don't. The planners I'm sharing are what I use. You could probably adopt many features of my style in any kind of notebook or planner, travelers notebook not necessary. Thanks for your kind words!
How do you not have smearing in the Tomoe River paper? I have the blotting paper but I still get a smear. It takes so long to dry. I love the paper though just wish it didn't smear, especially if I have to write on one page and then flip back and write something. Tips?
Thank you to you and your husband for being everyday heroes during this terrible pandemic. Blessings

That's a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
I much prefer full grid to dot grid, and I agree that Paper Penguin Co's full grid is a nice light one.
mandn821 yes her grid and dot grid are both amazing. She makes the best inserts.
Dot grid is one of my favorites, helps makes my lines straighter :). Not to mention keeps my writing from going off in a strange angle down the page.
Gosh! I *hope* stickers count as an artistic talent - because that's about all I can do. :-) Enjoyable and informative! Thank you so much for taking the time to share.
This is the most functional method I have seen that I can see myself using! Thank you!

I always enjoy seeing your planner, so functional and beautiful! 🙌
Thanks for sharing your forward planning, it’s been my biggest issue with the Bujo.

Thanks! Polar bears are from Plantasia Printshop on etsy.

Hahaha I guess I fit the mold!

Thank you so much! I think it's possible that paper planning often reflects our lives - and there's always room for growth!

Good luck with school! I'm trying something new this year for financial info. Once I have a couple months completed well, I'll see about sharing!

Thank you! You're exactly correct. Yesterday I used two pages, today only a half. Leaving it open leaves it prepared for anything.
Ink Imperfections I think I will try it this way next week. Thank you.
This video was sooooo helpful. 🙌🏼
Our conversation earlier this week had perfect timing and helped me elaborate on my madness!

Love your informative videos! What size is your planner cover? Thank you!
Thank you so much! It's a standard size travelers notebook or Standard TN. (Literally, that's the name of the size! 🙂) Some shops sell accessories labeled as "narrow" so I recommend always checking measurements.

Pilot Vanishing Point inked with Noodler's Heart of Darkness or Pilot Juice 0.38. Searching "Tomoe River Paper pen test" may give more options!
Ink Imperfections Thank you so much! I’ve used the pilot juice before and it was a nice pen. I may use that until I can get a fountain pen!
I really enjoyed your video and your tone of voice. I think your calligraphy is gorgeous, how did you work on it? Thanks, have a nice day!
Thank you! This is just my handwriting. I've always enjoyed writing and practicing neat penmanship 🙂

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 Yay!!! Of course, amazing!
What size of the monthly kits from Planner Kate do you get for your TN?
Usually I order stickers for personal l sized ring planners. They usually fit nicely.
