Just a little bit of everything
It’s been a long, overrun by four year old attitude kind of day so I’m not in the best mood now but it was fairly productive.
Took Tatum to Home Goods to get a journal she wanted. Had to take it away five minutes later because she wouldn’t listen. Gave it back to her at lunch, got taken away again by 4:30. *sigh*
It’s always amazing to me that she can remember the exact location she had an ice cream cone 6 months ago when we pass it, but she can’t remember something I told her 25 seconds ago.
I can hear my parents laughing from here…
So while we took a breather from one another for a bit I worked on a “motivational board” for my craft room I’ve been wanting to do with this vintage frame I got. Got it all done, super proud of myself, stepped back, looked up to admire it…
…it’s crooked.
So now my “motivational board” is becoming more and more demotivating every time I look at it. #OCDproblems – I did manage to straighten it as much as I could which helped a ton, but I guess this is the first exercise in learning to be ok with being “Perfectly Imperfect”.
The kids were even more difficult after nap, so I just let them run amuck in the house with Biscuit (the original Biscuit!!) and tried to get through cooking dinner without losing my cool. I’m happy to say that I got there, but it wasn’t the most pretty thing ever.
Once we finally got everyone to bed I worked on another project I’ve been putting off: my Memory Keeping. This was on my list of resolutions for 2019 and I failed on day two 😂 – I spent some time thinking about how I might could make it easier to keep up with and I decided to start doing just “A page/photo a day” in these standard size booklets from Cocoa Daisy and my HP Sprocket Photo Printer. Of course I had to start back on January 2, because I’m lame, but I made it through Jan 11 tonight and I’m hoping to do 10 more tomorrow and Thursday until I’m caught up! Since they’re small pages and I’m just making little notes/captions about the day instead of journaling a whole bunch of blabber, it’s going a lot quicker and it’s a lot more enjoyable/fun to do!
I went to film a video for y’all on the first 1/3 of January I had finished, but then Wade walked in and embarrassed me so I quit filming 😂 I’ll try again tomorrow when everyone is out of the house!
Plan With Me for 1/28-2/3
This week’s “Before The Pen” in all three places 😂 Technically it’s two since the insert and Bujo are both in my Chic Sparrow Deluxe Claire Outlander! Yellow Paper House is my desk planner, love the combo of weekly and dot grid, I don’t feel so constrained! My Chic Sparrow travelers notebook goes everywhere with me in my purse for on-the-go planning and notes/journaling! I’ve decided I really need to buckle down and use some of these sticker kits I’ve been hoarding so I busted out a few adorable ones from Pink Limeade Designs – loving them both. The bullet journal spread is flamingos, because, well, why the hell not. 😂😂😂
MOM POST coming next for those of you who could care less about my planner!! 😂😂

Total Planner Nerd Post!!
I LOVE planning. I love everything about it. From the feeling organized (even if you’re not, it’s a great feeling to have!) to the decorating with washi, stickers, and whatnot, to the gorgeous options for leather Travelers notebooks, and so on and so forth.
I also love the planner subscription boxes. The little surprise “gift” to myself in my mailbox each month is my little guilty “mom” pleasure. I’ve really had to downsize my subscriptions because if you know me then you know my “Go BIG or go home” mentality in allthethings but I got my last monthly box from Lauren Phelps Designs and I wanted to share it because it really is gorgeous!
I’m going to apologize now for the crappy lighting, but the kids are finally asleep and this is the time I have to myself, so I deal with whatever lighting I have on hand. 😉
I really love her designs, and I fell in love with her artwork for her October kit (I’m a total freak for pumpkins!) and decided to order a few boxes! This is the January kit for 2019 and it has all kinds of goodies from washi, to stickers, to gorgeous papers that I’ll use for scrapbooking and whatnot.
I’ll admit I haven’t figured out the sequins yet. Eventually I’m going to make shaker dashboards out of them, and I even bought ALLTHETHINGS to make shaker dashboards, but alas, laziness consumes me sometimes… (or maybe it’s just motherhood…. either way, I’m tired.)
One of these posts I’ll share some “Plan With Me” videos, but I’m waiting for my little iPhone tripod to come in so I can be all official-like, and so you can’t really see my face (because no one really wants that), and so my nervously shaking hands won’t make you motion sick. Because that could totally happen.
Also, isn’t it ironic that I couldn’t even fill up a day on a planner when I was working full time, yet now that I’m the stay-at-home mom of two that planner is jammed? Funny how that works…. LOL!
