May 2023 Planner Stack Update | Moterm, Stalogy, Discs, and Sterling Ink!

[@gidgetgetscrafty]

I hope you have gotten some answers and your health is doing better. 💕 I hadn't been good about using the Happy Planner (classic dashboard) I bought for this year, so I'm switching to a half letter (junior) system. So far its mostly Tul products. (Going to try a more minimal planning style too.) It has 1) planner section with weekly/monthly inserts, 2) a notes & list section, and 3) my budget. I'm hoping having notes and lists in my planner rather then random legal pads, will help me to actually transfer those things into my plans.

I like the term brain drops and I am in agreement concerning the commonplace book. Your definition is spot on!

[@mrsdudeandkids]

The tab idea on your stalogy is so smart! Might have to try it in my next notebook.

[@adhdoneplans]

Thank you so much! The custom tabs are on the site if you're interested!

I feel all of this video. I don't have a doctor diagnosis of ADHD, but I consider myself having it due to all of the things that happen on a daily basis. I also have a love hate relationship with the Week's, but more importantly the 4mm grid. I just don't like the way my handwriting looks on 4mm grid so I use B6 and A6 stalogies for various things. I love TRP - the feel, the fountain pens, the pure beauty of it, but I struggle to sacrifice my grid size for it. Create with Pen has TRP notebooks with 5mm grid so I snapped up some of those. I'm a fan of the term "open tabs" for brain dump. I'm constantly all over the place with the planner/journal system and I like to create some spreads, but I don't have the mental capacity to do too much of that right now so I'm transitioning back into my TN's so I can use some pre set inserts and just plan, journal, and create what I want. My boyfriend is going through a major health situation right now, which I've shared more of on IG, but life is a struggle at the moment so trying to make it easier where I can. Love/hate with trackers over here... I love seeing stuff checked off, but it does nothing for me in a productive way. The dimensions for A5 are 8.25" x 5.83" I believe. I'm gonna have to agree with you on the common place books, I don't think they are for journaling either. I have one- not much in it at the moment, but I consider it a place for songs, poems, quotes, research, anything I want to remember and reference without flipping through a bunch of journals... I hope the docs figure out what is going on soon! Woah this got really rambly! 😂🖤

[@HoneyStyleJoy]

Hi boo 🥰 Lol I have that many tabs open on my computer as you have in your planner 😂 I felt so much of what you said, you should definitely use them for Journaling! We gotta set it up for how our brain works. WHAT ARE WE DOINGGGG? The gold pages on the TN is so pretty! I didn't think I was a multiple planner either but I'm using 3 - an hourly a daily and my little notebook and my workflow is almost the same, except I have to get my locked in appointments laid out before I can decide what my to do lists are and when I can get them done. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤

[@bubblepuffs]

I too am having health issues, both mentally and physically, since many many years. However I am really starting to get a lot better and I am gonna start work practice soon 😊 I hope they can figure out what is going on with you so that you can get the right treatment ❤ I'll be here whenever you post a video, no need for a schedule 😊❤

Hello My name is Diamond ! this is a Half letter disc bound As fAR AS I KNOW its comparable to a5 paper size. I will keep u in my prayers for your healing

[@JustScribble]

Loved this video. I have to watch it again without kiddo distractions so I can make all the comments. But was gonna say A5 is similar to half letter but not the same. A4 and letter are slightly different size so their halves (A5 and half letter) aren’t identical but you can usually use inserts from each in each bc they aren’t too terribly different. I believe junior = half letter.

[@adhdoneplans]

oh that's so helpful!!! Thank you! I was so lost!!

[@DesertGal]

@ADHDone if you haven’t decided on what to use the pink sterling ink one for yet how about a spending log? Use it horizontally like a checkbook and keep a running tab of different expenditures or savings.

[@adhdoneplans]

I love that idea! That's so genius!!!

[@chantallennox1201]

Mind sweep is an alternative to brain dump

[@krystalmuller4673]

Download, brainstorm, think tank, all the things, free your mind, inner monologue, parking lot, mind sweep instead of a brain dump.

[@kimcas865]

Oh I LOVE "parking lot"! My boyfriend suggested "Thought Trough" Hahaha

[@ParisLeShea]

I'm always torn between sparkly, decorative beautiful planners and the elegance of minimal/simplistic and functional planning. My eye is drawn to the sparkly planners but my brain loves minimal aesthetic planners. Also, half letter is literally just a piece of paper folded in half (a typical sheet of printer paper). A5 is 5.8 inches wide x 8.3 inches tall while half letter is 8.5 inches tall x 5.5 inches wide. I hope you feel better and that they can get to the bottom of what's going on

[@beenspired]

I would love to see how you create your lists on sticker paper. Half of my issue having adhd is my memory! I would love to put my bills on a sticker that can be put with the month and checked off.

[@adhdoneplans]

I'll add it to my list of videos to make :)

[@beenspired]

Thank you!!

[@natalgratea2365]

Hey I hope you're doing well, seizures are no joke.

[@adhdoneplans]

Thank you so much, seizures are at bay for now!!

[@isabelm3636]

Love the tab idea on the Stalogy! What paper do you use to print your inserts for the Disc planner, is it TR paper? it looks pretty thin.

[@adhdoneplans]

Hi Isabel! I have three paper options: Vellum Bristol, 32lb specialty, and the one that's shown in the video--which is also specialty paper, but it's 64 gsm and fountain pen-friendly! If you look through any previous flip-throughs, it shows both the 32# and the Vellum Bristol!

[@isabelm3636]

@@adhdoneplans by any chance do you have a link to the specialty paper 64gsm? I'm looking for a thin paper that can handle watercolor like something similar to the Stalogy paper so I can use in my HP

[@LisaBeetsKS]

“Inbox” is the GTD term for Brain Dump

[@adhdoneplans]

Yes! Genius!

[@Uncomplicated_plans]

[@adhdoneplans]

Sending you an email!!!
