What's Your 2015 Planner And/or Journal?


CharlieTurtle

Recommended Posts

I'm using a 'Berry' Leuchtturm Large Weekly Planner as my planner / diary, and a no-name A4 notebook (cream paper!) that I was given for Christmas as my journal.

 

I plan to get a Raydori soon though, and will probably journal in that.

 

You?

In 2015 I will be using the same planner I've used since 1995, the Franklin Covey Classic Planner. For my journal, I recently got a leather journal cover that holds B5 sized notebooks. I plan to use a Kokuyo notebook in the year to come.

The 4"x6" Rhodia Webplanner is what we use (bought from Goulet):

And I journal primarily with the Rhodia Reverse Notebook:

I use the Midori monthly calendar and a Midori with the really thin paper as a bullet journal. Together, these do what I need.

This will be my first year trying out the Hobonichi A6 planner, it's a page per day and it's main feature is that it's made with Tomoe River paper.

 

For journaling I am currently using a spiral, clairefontaine notebook.

I am using a hybrid Levenger-ARC-Erin Condren-Martha Stewart-Filofax amalgamation for my 2015 household planner along with a pocket size Louis Vuitton agenda for my personal planner. My Midori TN will continue to serve as my journal. I have also incorporated my TWSBI notebook - the one packaged with the Micarta V2 - as my everyday note-taker. I think I should update my avatar since I am no longer using the Filofax personal size Osterly

For the last 4 years, I've used the moleskine every-page-is-a-day planner. They look like ice cream sandwiches. Small, but super chunky. They work well, but now I'm considering trying to utilize a midori passport size as a wallet/planner OR maybe a leather cover w/Field Notes 58-week planner.

 

I'm trying to find a reasonable one that can hold cards and a few bills. Any ideas?

This will be my first try with a Hobonichi Techo for a planner. I have been using a Seven Seas Writer for a journal for a while.

For the umpteenth year, I will use 3x5 cards combined with an old standard metal card file box, monthly dividers and a set of 1-31 dividers. I use/carry an old leather man's bi-folio that holds a supply of cards - for the current day, for random notes and journal entries as well as to be able to start future dates. I won't go into the actual method of recording on the cards other than to say it has been developed over a number of years and it is perfect for me.

 

Type of 3x5 cards. I have tried just about all of them, from Crane to no-name dollar store brands, lined and unlined, colored and white. In 2015, I will start out with a supply of Oxford lined white cards. Inexpensive at Staples and have been fountain pen friendly for me and the the inks that I use.

 

I do use the g-mail calendar that syncs with my phone and laptop for appointments - as well. Yes, it is a double entry to records appointments on phone/laptop and the index cards but it works well for me and I enjoy the alerts from the phone and laptop to upcoming appointments as well as the ease of scheduling.

I love the Hobonichi, but I have resisted buying the 2015 model because I found it last year to be a little too small.

 

I will probably give bullet journalling a go. Not sure in what yet. Probably a template printed from the internet in an A5 ARC. The problem is that is too heavy in daily planner format.

 

Oh woe is me! :( :)

For 2015, I'll continue using my Lily Pulitzer academic agenda for college...it takes fountain pen ink surprisingly well and it's colourfull enough to keep my interest when I'm writing down sometimes tiresome school assignments. Plus, it's hardcover and has an easy to wipe-clean surface!

 

For a journal, I'm trying out a Seven Seas Writer (for the first time). I bought a Harris Tweed cover on Etsy for the journal, but it hasn't arrived yet.

I'm using the Hobonichi Techo planner for the first time this year, since the planner I used for decades is no longer being shipped to North America. I think the Hobonichi (A6 size) will be excellent compensation for having to change my system after all those years.

Papyrus 2015 Weekly/Monthly. Lined note pages, cream paper, address section, ribbon.

 

Very pleased so far. The paper looks like Moleskine, but much heavier, ink friendly, with no bleed through. This planner in black leatherette has an understated appearance of fine quality, imho.

 

I actively sought out the Rhodia Weekly/Monthly, but as of the last two weeks of December, still could not find one. I do see them listed in 4 online locations as of this past week. I also see outdated 2014 Rhodia in clearance, frustrating since I diligently tried to find a 2014 last year through December/January with same no results. I liked the ink friendly quality paper of Rhodia, as of 2013, and will try again next year. But the Papyrus, if consistent, could win me over with its appearance, extra features, And Easy Availability.

Baron Fig Confidant Dot grid used a a Bullet Journal, year 3 for bullet journal for me. Rhodia Webbie in reserve for when this is full. approx 2 months into 2015. Baron has worked well, it and webbie equally excellent for this purpose. Baron lays a bit flatter easier.

Grace and peace to you

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
