oh, the Mini 5 from Plotter is pretty too!

The notebooks for your inspiration are really pretty as well! I’ll look forward to see what nice papers you find, I hope you’ll post it here in Pen & Paper :)

Filofax is a brand, yes. But it has also become the name for a notebook/calendar with rings. Similar to how Lypsyl means lip balm (at least in Scandinavia). But Filofax is a ‘ring-bound system planner’. The style of notebook can also be called ring-bound planner, ring-bound notebook, ring-bound system notebook and so on.

A similar type of notebook are made with discs instead → https://photon.lemmy.world/post/lemmy.world/40458204

My notebooks are not bound, no. Only the piece of rubber-string is holding it in place, this is so I can use it as both A6 and A7 papers. But the A6 only works from the middle haha. I find A7 to be too small for most use-cases. So when I’m done with a page I move it to the back of the notebook for storage.

And thanks! The cover makes it much easier to write, the leather is way to soft to write on

ooh, neat. A few cards (or pages) are often more than enough! Nice size, do you make them yourself of do you buy them like that?

Do you have a system for the cards at home? Like Zettelkasten or do you just like cards? :)

Thank you!

Neat, you have two? I used mine in the beginning to track workouts. It’s a decent size, but I have better discipline on my phone usage now so I feel more comfortable using an app again.

But if you got one because of the design, where is the photo of it?? I wanna seeee :D Show us!, please ^_

Wow, to use such a small notebook for calendar and project planning sounds like a challenge. Would it be a timeline/agenda style of planning?

oooh very neat! And nice paper, I used to have a notebook with that type of paper. It makes it so much easier to read on. I love that it fits in your wallet!

There are a lot of nice scrap-booking paper you could use, some even have structure. But they’re not very thick so you’d have to glue it to something sturdier :) The cardstock I have are from the cover of a regular notebook, that could work as well, but maybe not as fun.

A while back I saw a small second hand Filofax wallet similar to the image below, it feels a bit clumsy with the rings, but it makes me feel inspired to make something similar myself.

Babylon 5 :)

I prefer no sex-scenes tbh as they extremely rarely add something to the story. The implication or the first few seconds are more than enough. They only time I’ve felt that a longish sex-scene have added to the story is in Bridgerton when Penelope finally finds her love match.

I played Lemmings as a little kid, this is SO cool!

She was a very beautiful cat.

ooooh, now I see it, fancy! 🙌 Nice to have it in a little box like that, they can be quite sharp!

oooh fun little project and very neat sketch! Love it!

What are the tools (?) in the box to the right?

Sure! As long as they’re made with pen and paper :)

Thank you!

I journal on one page and sketch on the other :) The paper is a bit see through, as you noticed and I think it’s easier to read if I don’t write on both sides

If you keep doing these things, you’ll hopefully slowly feel better.

But of course, it won’t work for everyone, it depends on why you are depressed.

At least for milder forms of depression, it can help to pretend that you’re not depressed. Do stuff, get out, meet people, feel the rain, try to be in the moment, etc.

lol, that’s ironic

I dunno if I’d call myself a workaholic, but I easily get stuck in the hamster-wheel when I’m stressed and the longer you are in the hamster-wheel the blurrier your surrounding gets and it gets harder and harder to stop the wheel to get out. I think your note made him step out of that wheel and he hopefully realized what’s important in life. You, and living in the moment. So I don’t think he hates you.

That is horrible

Me and my partner is just staying at home to chill and sleep
