In the middle of ADHD assessment. Never tried the full daily rapid logging page - until today. And I got so much done (on a day off)!!!2wk ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/BasicBulletJournals
I feel so brave: frogged two tops I knit in 2012 that I knew I was never going to wear again - and reknit them into one in a style that's more like my current self. Bad hair day but good sweater day!2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
I have decided to combine monthly covers and mood trackers from now on. Also, how can I be grumpy when looking at kawaii coffee?!3yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
Found all the pieces next to a park bench. I think some friends had a falling out.1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/FoundPaper
Saw a fun mood tracker somewhere (Pinterest?) and knew I had to try one like it! (Also slowly getting my energy and optimism back.)1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
I'm making a book of trackers for a friend. Sometimes life gives you lemons, but when you look at them, aren't they frickin' cute?!2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
OMG! Curbside find: 20cm new & unused vintage Le Creuset with original booklet inside! (Seems like somebody clearing out their relative's house either didn't know what it was or thought it was too small for them.)2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/ThriftStoreHauls
I just spent hours swatching all my ink samples. Finally I get it: having a reference sheet is so good!1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
This is why my bullet journal is a survival tool. (art by Steve Asbell)4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
Whoo, I finally finished this year's crazy project: honsestrik insects!2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
It's probably pretty pointless, but I just finished a whole A4 page of these, and it was super calming.5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
I think my stashbusting just peaked. Best tote bag ever, using as much of every colour as I had leftover yarn. Now I'll either have to retire or open a shop.1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
I'm having the best day! Got the nicest A6 cover from etsy! (It's by Natsumehandmade, and they also sent some free washi and stickers!) 🤩🤩🤩8mo ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/hobonichi

I like to refer to clothespegs/clothespins as crocodiles, and since they go on a clothes horse... this happened. 😆7mo ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/Journaling
Haven't posted yet this time around, but I need to tell somebody that I just ran W4D1 in the rain and wind - and it was the best thing ever! I feel so alive!2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
They're promising us a (slow) return to normality, starting in May. Obvious cover choice: phoenix from the ashes!4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
It's a bit difficult to get a good picture while self-isolating, but I just finished my second quarantine knit: Summer Sailing4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
After a super stressful week I decided to add this to my current weekly instead of a decoration5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
Waiting for ADHD assessment. Sometimes the only thing that works is a daily task list plus a rolling weekly list to pick from. (kinbor Weeks)1mo ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/hobonichi
My gran has always made socks for my brother and me. Now that she can't knit anymore, I've decided to make socks for her in return.6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting

Hi, n00b here. These days I usually bullet journal, except when I'm checking in with myself about twice a year. Hybrid Balance Wheel / Level 10 Life spread with self-assessment and planning ahead. (Censored some stuff about my boss and friends.)1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/Journaling
It's the simplest idea, but I had to try it: tiny glitter stars and sellotape!5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
It arrived! And it's beautiful! Thanks to u/lastspringdays' de-stashing, I now have an Archer & Olive undated planner that I could aford the shipping costs for!2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/notebooks
I'm having a really hard time (grief, stress, migraines) but I'm in love with this intuitive spread in my self care journal, so hopefully it will help me to look after myself and get through this.1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
My friend was sad because she couldn't get all the One Piece stuff she wanted, so I made her this shitajiki for her Weeks. (Now with rounded corners and blotting paper pasted on the back.)1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/hobonichi
Got some new supplies, so I set up next week! Have almost found my perfect weekly layout (only I'm still in the notes pages of my 2023 Weeks).1yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/hobonichi
Started an experimental top with some random cotton blend I got from a friend who de-cluttered her stash - and check out this pooling!3yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
[WIP] I needed something calming, so now I'm binge-watching Bojack Horseman while knitting a sock from scraps on the general theme of purple.4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
I started my first bujo in February, and back then I thought I didn't need/want monthly covers. This insanity just happened. I'm still too scared to put the month in the big yellow circle. Inspired by a piece of SF comic art by Mike Hinge from 1975.5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
Oops, I did it again! You convinced me that doodles can be art, so I did a whole A4 page vaguely inspired by Klimt.5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
Knitting some quick ankle socks as a thank-you present for a friend, and WHOA do I love this yarn! Every new stripe is a lovely surprise.3yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
I realised I really enjoy writing on the slightly toothy paper of these cheap Flying Tiger journals. So with a little washi personalisation and some added tabs, this is my 2022 bullet journal.2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
Thanks to u/devsmess and u/alexisrambles I now have a real weapon in the fight against overthinking and anxiety!4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bujo
I told my brother, I'm not your sister; I'm your sibling, and he said, okay!, and later his partner told me that my nephew (in kindergarten) loves wearing his sister's dresses and that they fully support this.5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/NonBinary
I was looking for a gift for a friend (who loves both journalling and this shade of blue) - and they had Clairefontaine notebooks for 7 Euros!2yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/notebooks
OMG, it has arrived! It's so beautiful! Only downside is the super thin paper, which feels very much like Moleskine paper.4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/notebooks

It's getting cold - but I did W5D2 (again), and I could feel a glimpse of my old self returning!5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
This is what I can do with a non-padded, small-sized sports bra. No painful compression! (Autocorrect suggests I'm going for an Android look.)5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/NonBinary
I'd underestimated the effect of snow days on a healing nerve. Did tons of leg & core yoga, and today I completed the infamous W5D3 without pain, and with energy to spare! I feel so alive again!5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
Irish stew with homemade seitan. There's a splash of beer in it for the flavour, but that's still healthy, isn't it?4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/HealthyFood
W1D3 in the bag. It's getting hotter, but I'm also getting more confident that I can do this! Even managed to run a little further today.6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
W2D3. Managed to add a whole 2 minutes of running and didn't feel like I'd collapse at the end. Ready for week 3! We can do this!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
Found a beautiful slim Lamy pen that I got about 25 years ago. Its matte finish had turned into a sticky coating covered in pencil shavings. After a hard clean it looks a bit scuffed, but it still writes well and I'm so happy with it!3yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/fountainpens
It's just a tiny doodle, but it's my favourite so far - and I needed some way to mark my birthday. :)5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/bulletjournal
I look as if I've been through the rain. There was no rain. My hair is dripping. W5D2 (+5mins) complete! PHEW!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
Serious winter weather, so I can't get better lighting - but I finished my first Xmas present: Bubble Hat for a friend (in the perfect colours for her!)5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
I'm back! Had to take a month off to heal a (running-unrelated) injury, but I can't have lost too much muscle! Re-did W2D3 and ran through the last walking cue again!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
My Aliexpress A5 cover arrived! It's very different from the description (different inside colour, different bookmarks, pen loop closure replaced by an elastic band), but it's still really pretty and useful. Might have to get a pouch for my pens now. 😉4yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/hobonichi
Corduroy trousers in two different styles! it was 50% off day, so I got both for €5,50!5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/ThriftStoreHauls
Clif shoes, red leather, almost like new, including their original red beeswax polish.8yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/ThriftStoreHauls
Finally finished my Rumpus Recipe Shawl (with a little design element because I ran out of the teal yarn).5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
This is me in glitter mode, featuring the maximum amount of makeup I ever wear (and which is making me feel a bit weird). I don't know what my hair is doing, but I'll roll with it.5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/NonBinary
W4D3 done - halfway through the programme, and I'm no longer scared of week 5! (Well, maybe day 3...)6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
W5D1 revisited after surgery: started out in misty weather, I'm a more intense yellow than my phone's camera can handle, and I don't give a damn! I'm running again!5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
For my birthday, I baked myself some pumpkin cupcakes made with coconut milk and chopped walnuts with a Sacher style chocolate ganache5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/dessert
Stucco face on the wall can't even! I just did W2D1, and now my return run starts at the end of a slope. I can run up a hill!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
I liked the Bubble Beanie Hat so much I learned how to knit the pattern and ended up making two hats!5yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/knitting
Didn't really sleep well last night, but went out and did W2D2. Covering a little more distance with each run.6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
W3D1 went well! After the short (90 sec) runs I kept thinking, WTF? That was it?!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
W4D1: Tonight we run! The sky was till bright when I set out but the bats were already out! Running after dark with Dio on the earbuds rocks! Reach for the stars - and you'll fly!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
We're expecting rain later, so I got up and ran W5D1 before breakfast (but after coffee)!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
Got a bit impatient waiting for my seedlings to grow, so I experimented with kitchen scraps and yes, my pak choi is growing back! :D7yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/IndoorGarden

My C25K app updated overnight and kept crashing on me today, but I finished W6D2 anyway, without voice prompts and without music. I want my stats though - so I'll try again ASAP once my sciatic nerve is okay again!6yr ⋅ giant_squid ⋅ r/C25K
