It is very hard to believe that is is already November. I had 3 trick or treaters last night which is the most I have ever had!!!! I took this weekend off! Last weekend, I spent 10 hours in my classroom playing catch up. I decided this weekend was all for me! I spent time working on Faery Tales. I am happy to say that once I reach the bottom of this column, I will have reached the halfway point!!!! I never thought I could say that but by the end of the year, I will be halfway finished!!!!!
The detail on this design is just amazing!
I am so excited!!! I scored a major deal this weekend!!!! I was reading a post on one of my facebook groups about a girl whose Staples had their Erin Condren life planners on clearance for $15.00. These planners are usually around $50.00 so I thought I would check ours. Of course they didn't have any but the manager asked me if I had a picture of her receipt and I did...so he matched the price!!!! My sister is actually buying me one of these for Christmas for my personal planner for my appointments, Thirty-one parties..etc.
This is my new stitching and reading journal since it is for 2015-2016. They are spiral bound and you can replace the cover with a new design if you get bored with the one you have.
Each month has a page for notes and a great quote....
you have the monthly layout for your appointments. I will be using this for birthdays etc...
I chose the vertical layout which has 3 boxes for each day. The top row will be for my daily stitching - what I stitched, how much progress I made. The middle row will be what book I am reading or listening too. The final row will be how I am feeling. I suffer from depression and anxiety so it is good to keep track of the amazing things that happen to you in life.
There is also 6 pages of notes which I will use for books I want to read, or charts that catch my eye.
there are a few pages of graph paper. I haven't decided what I am going to do with these.
The last thing is stickers!!!! There are pre-printed ones and blank ones!!! So excited!!!!
I am so excited!!!! I love my stitching journal!!!!!!

Very cool! Great way to keep up with everything :). I've never been much of a journal person but I could definitely see the benefits. Great stitching as well. I should reach the halfway point by the end of the year too! I only have 6 pages left and 3 of those are half pages.
And good luck :)
Congrats on the new journal! What a deal! And as much stitching as you've gotten done on Faery Tales, you'll be filling that puppy up come next year!
Great progress on Faery Tales Vickie. Love your new journal.

Great progress and awesome that your local Staples matched the price! A very cool journal. I would love to do that but never have time or keep up with it. Good for you to keep track and hope it works well for you.
Looking beautiful and you're so close to half way, I'm so impressed on such a massive project!
