Girlfriend!!! 😭😭😭😂😂😂You had me crying and then laughing so hard! I was crying when you were talking about the Santa letters from the kiddos, but then you had me dying laughing when you were talking about going shopping and having to touch every Christmas tree and ornament like you were in the movie Elf🎄🎅😅 I am so happy that you’re using the comp notebook!!! It definitely takes the pressure off to have a notebook that you can take up as much space as you need and it can be messy or whatever! We just need to have the information down and then you can transfer it however you want to whatever planner/journal you wish!😍 Thank you for showing all your DIY projects ~they turned out so cute!! I can’t wait to see what you do with the pink truck and car🤩💖💖💖💖
And, all of the above is why I call myself chaos with susan. I have horrible ADD and my brain feels like chaos, even when i AM on medication. lol. I'm loving using the comp book first, then in the evening, I can go to my 'pretty planners' and journals. I tried to upload a video of setting up a monthly spread and dailies, yesterday...and had to fight with my phone for memory space. THREE times, I made a video (which means I had to do THREE months!) and the video stopped, without my knowing, because of a memory notification. Lordy. It was a hot mess! One of these days, I'll get a video made of how I draw up a month. That pink car and truck make me SO happy. I think I've decided to get some of the little wood blocks from Dollar Tree (they are about 1/2"x1/2") and paint them with sparkly nail polish and stack them in the back of the truck, like gifts, and made a tiny wreath for the front of the truck. I think the car needs a bottle brush tree, maybe about 3 inches tall, and maybe the fun cart reindeer antlers and a red nose. It's going to be fun!🤩 I really DO feel like Elf. I can't get enough of Christmas.
i am always not satisfied with my lay outs my journaling everything. i feel like i am always messy..it’s always good to remember my planner is ME it doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s thank you my friend i agree 100%
You are too sweet. I think we always look at another's planners and like them more than our own, because we are our own worst critics. I ordered 2 of them, in the blue color, for 2025. My hope is that one will be for AM and PM thoughts, and the other will be more of a memory keeper. I have a separate book (thanks, to you!) that I'll be using for all my Brain Dump, Monthly Goals, and Trackers. I guess we shall see, after the new year begins. BTW, I put a little happy mail out for you, this morning. You should receive it Monday, if not on Saturday :)
@@ellensmile001 thank you for visiting. I think the most important thing to remember is that your journal is YOURS, and doesn’t have to be like any other. Skip days, journal several times in one day. Draw pictures, instead of writing. There is no right, or wrong. Enjoy it!
Susan, Susan, Susan! My daughters roll their eyes every time I say Albertsons! So I had to play this video for my oldest. Which made her roll her eyes. I could feel it through the phone! Thank you for making me laugh!
Girl! Have you tried any of their coffee? They have some of the best flavored roasts that I've ever had. And I used to manage a coffee shop, so I've tried all kinds. My favorite is the Double Dutch Chocolate, but they also have a very good Buttery Caramel and a nice French Vanilla. I watch for their sales.
@@SimplyKatieWalks I get it. My mother and brother have NEVER been coffee drinkers. And, I didn't even start drinking it until my late 20s. I had babies at home, and once a week, two friends and I would leave our kids with their dads and go to a cozy, little coffee shop. I started out ordering, "something coffee, that doesn't taste like coffee". I ended up managing that little shop, and learning more about coffee than I ever knew could exist!
@@chaoswithsusan Funny story, i was never a drinker until I started bartender when I was 30. I would have been a lot better off going the coffee shop route!
You made a great point about planner channels. I have to remember that it's their content. Not necessarily real life. I strive for planner peace. ❤
I've been on a journey to find planner peace. As this video proves, I haven't exactly found it yet.

@ I hate it when technology is against us!😓😓😓😓
@ my boyfriend doesn’t believe me, but I think cellphones and computers have gremlins, just like the movie. And they do NOT always like us!
@@chaoswithsusan HAHAHAHA!!! Not the Gremlins!! Now I need to find a Gremlin image and print it out for my journal!🙌😅😜

Exactly!! What you 'see' as imperfection, is perfect, for you. It's like art...it comes from our heart, and everyone's looks different.
❤❤❤❤ i feel your temu planner is sooooo pretty i love that denim heart
