Addendum to Meal Planning

So, I was planning last night and as I work on my planner I also watch You Tube videos to get inspiration. As I am flipping through the people, I see that Kell of Plan has a Meal Planning Video, it has changed my way of thinking about meal planning! She gave me inspiration and I am excited for planning my meals for this next MONTH! Check out her video here…

So instead of using a mini page and drawing out my month, I created this printable for 2 months’ worth of planning. Just print 2 sided, flipping on the short side if you can, otherwise having 2 sheets will work too. Just trim them down to size and viola; you are good to go! I liked her idea of trimming the post-it’s to fit in the squares and then you can move them to your planner if you wanted, or you can write it directly on the calendar itself. Can’t wait to see if this changes my life! J

How I Planned During COVID

I LOVE planners, and use them for work, life and journaling Like many of you, I have been cooped up in my house since March 13 th (unlucky Friday the 13 th ) I have gone out for groceries, and I think we have picked up food once, at the beginning. Otherwise, we have stayed in the house with little contact. It was just this last weekend where we adventured to a “drive in movie” in the mall parking lot with my sister-in-law and her kids. This was the first time my son finally got to play with his cousins and see someone other than his parents for over 3 months. He was delighted. It doesn’t hurt that the movie was Sonic the Hedgehog which he has wanted to see for the whole quarantine as well! I know that I have looked at Instagram and know that there are MANY of us that are just lost because there is nothing to plan! It hurts because we have these great planners all looking like they did “before the pen” still. I admit it, I have many decorated pages with NOTHING written

💜 Pens 🖊🖋✒️✏️🖍

I love pens! I mean, like I look at a pen and want to write with it right away, if I like it I NEED it! I get excited when they are on sale and want every color in a style I love. Paper-Mate Flair comes out with new colors all the time and I get it stuck in my head that where I am just thinking about how much I want it. It’s a bad addiction. If someone picks up my pen to use I get a little sweaty, like are they going to press too hard, what if they take off with it? Ugh, I look like a NUT. I do get excited though when people ask me for my thoughts on a pen, then I have to go into great detail, do you want a ball point, gel ink or a fine line pen. Are you left or right handed (lefty here!)? It depends on my mood with what I like in the moment. Usually I use my Paper-Mate Flair, then I might switch to my Stabilo 88’s. It depends on what I am doing; writing, coloring, drawing… and sometimes I use a mix of them. I think that mixing the types can really give you a goo

Don’t Let Others Bring You Down

Sometimes I feel like an empath; like that, I can let other people’s behavior change my mood. I am trying not to let these things affect me so much, not let other people dictate how I feel or my attitude. I have some strong personalities at work. Some people that think that the world is against them and then others that look at the positive side of life. I lean towards the positive people so that I don’t think of negative things. I tend to try to pep those naysayers up; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. When I look at my sticker books, I can tell I am a fan of the positive quotes. I will get home from a shopping spree and find that I bought the same quote book I had trips back. I even look through all the stickers while I am shopping to see if this is what I want. I figure that I cannot have too many quotes pumping me up. I think those little reminders around you help make or break your day. If I feel down, a little “Punch Today in the Face” makes me
