Bullet Journal Update

Well, I have been at the bullet journal for a week and a half and I'm still undecided if I will continue with it. I mentioned before I have used planners/journals off and on for a long time. Sometimes it is hard for me to keep it up, I don't know why. I am intrigued by the bullet journal and the adaptations people are making to it. I love the creativity and keeping track of everything in one place. So maybe with a little more time I will really get into this, especially as I add more things to do/jobs to my life.

Here is a look at my journal. It isn't fancy or decorative...yet.

I am just using a simple composition notebook for now. If I really like this I may buy a better journal, but for now this works. I am going to put a Bible verse or inspirational quote on the front to cover the white part.

My index page. I may cover the inside of the cover with some pretty paper and quotes.

My month-at-a-glance or future planning page. I used colored pencils but may change to a fine-tip marker or pen of some sort so it is easier to see.

My first week of dailies or I suppose this could be a weekly. It is broken down by day, but you can see the whole week. I copied this from Boho Berry (I think). I like the days like this and the little weather symbols. I may also add high and low temps if I remember to look them up.

I left one page blank. I don't remember why, but I will probably doodle on it. This page is my doodle practice which if you follow Kari Denker at Stone soup for Five she has a Wednesday practice page of doodles you can download. I love her Bible studies. If you haven't tried one, you should.

This is the tracker for my Bible reading. I like to read through the Bible every year. This year I am following Bible In One Year 2017 on YouVersion. There is a commentary by Nicky and Pippa Gumbel. Nicky Gumbal is the Vicar of HTB in London and pioneer of Alpha. (taken from the YouVersion introduction to the plan). So far I am enjoying the commentary and then the daily readings. It does of course track what I have read, but this gives me an at-a-glance view.

And, this is a my second week of dailies/weekly.

Well, it isn't fancy or pretty but I did get started and so far I am enjoying it. I hope if you are looking for something this at least inspires you a little bit.
