It’s snowing here in BC (after an epic amount of rain for the past couple of weeks), so my bujo spread is going to be a cozy one for this week. I printed out these hand-drawn free printables from @moehrenkunstshop that I’ll use for this week’s spread and daily logs in my @archerandolive TN bujo. (Thanks Anna for designing these gorgeous free printables!)

4️⃣ @archerandolive Travelers Notebook - as my bujo during the day.
5️⃣ @thecoffeemonsterzco My Emoti Planner V2 for journal prompts.
6️⃣ Hobonichi Cousin Avec for memory keeping and daily journaling. That’s my main lineup!

Book notes for the two Kate Bowler books I read re

Book notes for the two Kate Bowler books I read recently: “Everything Happens for a Reason - and Other Lies I’ve Loved” and “No Cure For Being Human - and Other Truths I Need to Hear” 📚 I enjoyed the style of writing and reading about the raw experience of dealing with a life altering cancer diagnosis. I personally think I would have liked “No Cure…” (the newest book) more if I hadn’t read the first book because there was a bit of repetition in the storyline, but overall, I still enjoyed both books separately. I would recommend these books (mostly the newest release) to those who have are currently dealing with a major transformation and/or grief in their lives. The books were funny, sad, and honest. They were openly human and very much experience-based, and I like reading these types of stories. Have you read either book? What are your thoughts? _

I started using an Archer & Olive travelers notebo

I started using an Archer & Olive travelers notebook at the beginning of this month (swipe 👉🏽 to see which one) and honestly can’t believe I haven’t used it sooner… 💙 I was mostly using my phone for notes during the day because that’s what I always have on me while caring for my toddlers but the TN is portable while giving me enough space to log what I need to. The set up is pretty minimal - I’m mimicking the Hobonichi Weeks layout for weekly logs on-the-go and the daily logs are just lists (no preset layout as I find it restrictive sometimes). I’m still fine tuning what works for me and will share a monthly/weekly/daily layout for December. I’m still using my other planners and journals (this stationery lover can’t be just a one-book kind of person 😏). But this TN fits right into my day routine and it’s working for me so far… Are you interested in seeing more Travelers layouts? 📣 Archer & Olive is having their Black Friday sale early (on now through Cyber Monday) of 45% off [discount is automatically applied at checkout.]
