chicken roust should be round so their feet can grab and lock... round poles are better?

I think Catherine at Sterling Ink has notebook and notebook booklets in the B6 slim size. So, if you’re worried about running out of pages, you could always add a notebook/notebook booklet and keep it in your cover with your planner. Good video. Just found your channel today and subscribed.

Did you pour a cement base to anchor the 4x4s down?

I prayed this in January 1994 LORD send the fire, and you are right, fire can destroy, BUT Godly FIRE is such a blessing and in the process He gives us His grace and in hindsight we see much better, and in His time waiting upon Him for the REVELATION of the purpose and power brings us a beautiful life on humbling ourselves daily.... Trusting HIM always and doing the next thing with HIM drinking of the sparkling still waters and lucious green pastures while staying close to Him

Bless your heart ❤️ God will turn it into good in the end 🙏🏼

Inquiring minds want to know 😂❤; have you decided on the size? For me, it’s a toss up between horizontal B6 slim, A6, and N2…OH MY!

Hi Ali what leather is your custom one? I love the floppyness 🤌🏻😍😍 I am looking at their website, but don’t know what’s floppy or not! He also has b6 wide size now? 😅 Ty in advance !

The struggle is real. Glad I’m not the only one who is always trying to decide the best planner and journaling method. Thanks for showing us the different sizes and sharing your thoughts/ideas.

7 years later and I am just finding this amazing video 🫶🏼🤍

Ali, might you be able to share where you got your pendant necklace?

Would love a walk thru. I am a b6 slim girlie and so excited to use mine this upcoming year.

omgoodness. Im so happy ur back ❤ God is good always. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I’m interested in the faith based journaling.

Also, i would rather have TOO many pages left at the end of the year (i can always go back in and add notes or commonplace in it) than not have enough... ALSO, i adore your idea of putting photos in the goal area.... I use a couple planners each year and one is for memory keeping and journaling so i wouldnt use the goals pages in that one and would love a picture in each space of my favorites for the year. Such a good idea!!

ANY AND ALL VIDEOS from you make my heart happy!!!! I love your quirkiness and gentle voice ❤

LOL you ARE Texan hahaha "panties in a wad" <-- that is the correct way to say it. hahahaha!!!!!!

I’m considering the b6 slim; please do a more in depth video of how you’ve been working in your planner , I’d love to see how you set it up ❤Subscribing for more yummy-ness😂

Thanks for letting us know! Everytime someone I follow drops off the face of the earth, my first thought is they died! Glad to know that's NOT what happened!

Love you my friend ♥️

Thanks for the video, Ali! I was wondering if you remember where you found those metal(?) tabs dividing the sections in your current planner?

Have you done a video talking about the reflection section of the weekly layout? I avoided buying the CO B6 slim because I have a weeks leather cover. I feel your struggle! See ya, Celeste

Here in 2024 and loved this video! ❤️

I was almost convinced I was going to get a hobonichi weeks mega. Because the pull is so strong for that brand. But really between N2 and B6 Slim. I’m struggling. Leaning toward b6 slim, wish it had more colors? Maybe I’ll just cover it lol

I'm so happy to see your beautiful face pop up in the notifications. I've been checking and checking and hoping you were ok. I'm sorry to hear everything you and your husband went through. But I'm happy that God led you to a better place. I hope you will continue on this great path. I'm excited to see all that you will create with your new found freedom.

I have the same one mint condtion

Your face and gritted teeth talking about your new b6 planner made me LOL. Girl I feel you..😂🎉 Its like baby toes and how you just want to gobble them up 😂😂😂😂😂

Ali will you have your 2025 flatlay prints in your shop? I have your 2024 flatlay framed and I love it so much, it brings me so much joy 💜

Maybe if your main issue is concern over having not enough or way too many leftover pages, you could try dividing up your book into months (using little tabs?) and then divide each tab into 4 so then you have a chunk of pages for each week that you are free to fill? Or working out what your ideal number of pages per week might be and choosing a book with that number of pages. Might be sort of like writing up a budget, it gives you the freedom of knowing how much you can spend. With dividing up however many pages you want to use each week, it gives you that freedom of knowing that you'll have enough AND that you'll use up the book :)

LORD, I ask You to show Ali how You want her to use her planner for the ensuing year. Show her she has enough room for ALL she needs to write out. Help her to realize in You that she is complete. Help her to focus on You and her commitment to be more to You and less on herself. Help Ali to recognize that life is all about You. Love her fully and completely, that she is so enough in You. Thank You for the new place You have put her husband and her in life. Help her to bloom and grow in this new walk in life. Show her great and marvelous things in You. In Jesus, Amen.

I almost stop watching because i thought it was a B6 slim size of the original common planner. Its a B6 slim size weeks! Love it.

I'm B6Slim all the way. I have a B6 TN that I occasionally use. I have several (ahem....) A6 TNs and a few Pocket and Passport TNs, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the B6Slim. But I pretty much make my own inserts. My calendar pages are a comedy of errors b/c I always forget how to print on the reverse side. But it's Tomoe River paper, so I'm gonna use it, doggonit!!! I have no idea how I missed your Up from the Ashes video 🤔

this looks so gorgeous, im think about getting a B6 too 😊😊

I love the b6 slim as well but I use the vertical. So for 2024 I got the standard size and had staples cut the bottom part of it off and it was a perfect b6 slim. I was happy when she came out with the b6 slim for next year. I did add in my spiritual notebook into my planner to use these extra pages.

The struggle I had this year was I need a planner that can fit my home management, budget , my personal stuff, my kids stuff. But it needs to be portable and act as a journal. I picked the week’s size this year and hopefully I can fit it all. I feel like a crazy person. 😂

I bought my B6 slim common planner too!! I’m a fellow B6 slim gal! 🥰

Wait where did you get the leather covers?

I LOVE Seeing ur face again.! Thank you for explaining Sterling Inks B6 slim planner/journal. I would love an in depth show and tell from you.!! You turned me into a B6 Slim girl (well woman, I am old, lol) Years ago.! I went from Wide to Standard than to B6 Slim (in Chic Sparrow covers) to then adding Hobonichi Cousin and Weeks, still always using my B6 Slims… Cafe Notes or right now I’m in Midori. Now that I’m retired, all I really need is my Weeks and B6 Slim, but darned it I don’t keep trying the size a6 because its so cute. But I never stick to that size.! Oh and I also have Travelers Co.! I may have retired from work, however I still need & love my journaling, paper, fountain pens, inks, water color …. It’s Who I Am.! 💖💖💖💖 I have you to thank for a large part of that. Jesus and Journaling.!! 🙏💖 You Blessed me all those years ago, I can’t thank you enough.!!! 💖💖

Thank you for sharing. Does your B6 Slim fit in your cover?

I like the darker lines but I also had sooo many pages left at the end of the year. I started tearing them out writing letters on the extra pages-it is such nice fountain paper.

Yes please in depth flip through!!

I just love you!! I will watch your videos all day errday you are a joy

I would love to see your system! ❤

I'm so happy to see you smiling and thriving and loving God thru it All❤❤ You've always been such a beautiful light for Christ no matter what you do for "work." Big hugs to you Friend from Napa Ca❤

I am looking forward to haveing the B6 slim in my hands. Then I will purchase the B6 when that launches. Also, I am super excited for the only slightly darker lines and numbers.

Please show a walk through, i would love to see how you use it.

I think I started watching your videos 10 years ago! So glad to see you again! You are such a blessing. 🙏❤️

It's always a happy day when I see you post my friend! ❤ I've been worn down with Rona for the First time Ever but seeing your excitement for a new common planner made me smile. Hugs from Napa Ca❤❤❤❤

I remember watching you way back in the B6 slim. I got into the cafe notes thanks to you 💚. I’m now trying to plan for wanderlust and looking at different notebooks that I can use just for it 😊

So happy to see you back! I love that your kiddos are getting married and I’m sure soon will begin to start their little families! ! It’s such a fun season of life!!! My story has always been similar to yours (I’ve been watching you since 2016 or so!) and this new season of life with the hubs and myself is just truly amazing!!!! I’m excited for all yall have to look forward to! Can’t wait for your journaling videos again! 🤍 Jen
