#listersgottalist

April 10, 2015

I feel I’ve been all over the place as of late. With trying to fix problems with my website to just my busy work days, I’ve been struggling to find the time to do anything remotely creative. Because after I’ve come home and finished dealing with things that need to be dealt with, I’m just really tired to do anything else. A lot of my projects (like Project Life 2015) that I was determined to keep up with at the start of the year, have stalled even before they had a chance to establish some sort of staple routine in my life.

Of course, I found other smaller-scaled things to consume my time. I’ve been slowly becoming a planner girl, officially joining the planner community on Instagram by making a new account solely for my planner/scrapbooking related photos. You can now find all my paper-related photos at createplanlove. I absolutely love this community! I find it, like with the snail mail community, sort of an extension of the scrapbooking community that I’ve grown to love. A lot of scrapbookers are planner girls, and a lot of planner girls are snail mailers and it’s all intertwined that my community of paper lovers has gotten a bit bigger.

I’ve been working in a ring-styled planner for awhile. My Kikki Ks and my Mint & Gold Dokibook hold huge place in my heart. A few weeks ago, I discovered the wonders of making my own Midori Traveller’s Notebook and let’s just say I got hooked. Since making my first FauxDori, I’ve made two more, one of them finding a new home with one of my friends whom I gave it to. I started out making them 6×8 like my junk journals, but something compelled me to make one the regular standard size the Midori’s usually are. And let me just say….I LOVE IT. I initially thought I would have the size, but it’s perfect! I haven’t dedicated my FauxDori to any sort of planning yet–I’m still using my ring binders–but I have joined in on a list challenge on Instagram. It’s the #listersgottalist challenge from Cori (theresetgirl), who’s the same lovely lady who’s video got me curious about the Midori. You can find more information on the challenge at www.listersgottalist.com, and even though it began on April 1, you can start it anytime and catch up quite easily.

I don’t spend that much time each day on the prompts. I like that I can take 20-30 minutes out of my day and site down to make something creatively. This challenge is very similar to 30 Days of List, but geared more towards the planner community. It’s just nice to share what you made with everyone and see how others went about the prompts as well. I just wanted to share a bit of the spreads I’ve done so far. I do hope you consider joining in, either now, or for May, as I believe Cori will continue to do this challenge for as long as she possible can!

I absolutely adore this passage about Spring from Jeanette Winterson.

Happy Astrological New Year! xx

Baby boy is 15 years old today! He's no little boy anymore, but a fine old senior dog (actually I think technically he's geriatric). He's definitely slowed down quite a bit with his thyroid problem and just general old age. C19 has definitely been really hard on him. He was struggling with his hyperactive thyroid all through 2020 and no one could figure out why he was so sad and blah until mid-2021 when he got properly diagnosed. But since being on his meds, he's got that puppy spirit again! He does have some separation anxiety now and literally needs to be with people constantly. But that's a given especially since there's always someone home now for him to be with. But it's getting better though! The absolute highlight of his week though is going over to our neighbor's apartment every Tuesday as I tutor one of the girls in math. He gets SO happy then because he gets to play lol. HBD Joey! xx

Driftwood—documenting the signs and synchronicities I see in my life. I'm paying attention to these little coincidences of life. At the beginning of the year, I took @gabbybernstein's manifestation challenge and she had us choose something to be our sign so that whenever we see it, it's a sign from the Universe that what we want is actually on the way. I chose "seeing hearts" because it felt right and aligned with my guiding word for the year, Heart. Gabby asked us to keep a list of all the driftwood we collect, and my god have I been seeing hearts. And while what I desire might not happen right away, I feel like this is the Universe’s way of telling me to trust—to let go and trust.

Into the unraveling journal it all goes. Happy Friday loves. xx

Oh hey, shamelessly sharing this for #thursday3 because tbh I need a different type of photo to break up the feed...

✩ I've been feeling really lost and stagnant in life lately—actually for the last couple of months. Just going through the motions and the sheer monotony of life. I'm not used to doing the same sorts of things day in and day out (probably why I never had a 9 to 5 before). It's kind of boring and that makes me sad. To be fair, I am really blessed and I love my job, but it's a job and not my life, and while I thought getting my ideal job would make me happy, it hasn't. So I've been trying to figure out why that is and what's missing. (Also still going through old shit, but we won't talk about that again.)

✩ I've been playing around with a test WordPress installation on my server and building a little social network-like community on there. It looks super neat, but I honestly don't know if I'll do anything with it. I'm not very good at community building lol. The number of times I've tried, it just never builds as I hope. But like, I'm just really not very good at it! I'm more of a participant than a host. But this site is looking super cool!! It's basically Facebook but not. It's better and I haven't a clue if I should open it up to people to join. Would you actively participate in it?

✩ While I hate the motion of changing the clocks backward and forward, I'm loving the extra daylight! It's making me really happy to finish work around 6 pm and it still being light out. I can't wait for spring!

How are you loves? I hope everyone is well. Happy Thursday! xx

Documenting my One Little Word in my #unravelingjournal.

I love my word Heart for this year. If you've seen a particular Youtube video of mine, you would know why I chose it, but by documenting it in my journal and simply carrying it around with me I realized it contains multitudes!!! I love how I can visually document it so effortlessly since it's a symbol and a shape. I also embrace its many layers and meaning. I'm just in love with my word. She's a winner. xx

I shared a look at the January pages I made in my unraveling journal the other day on my new website tiffanyjulia.com. I've been working in this journal pretty much on the down low while I've been working on a new project. I quite like how some of these pages turned out. I'll share them all here in the coming days. xx
