It’s been a while, hasn’t it?
I confess, I’ve been out of the planner world for a time. I moved in with my partner during lockdown, changed jobs to a part time role just down the road and ended up using a *gasp* wall calendar in our kitchen.
Then I got pregnant. I should have probably utilised the planner because I was so busy with the amount of appointments I had I could hardly tell what way was up most of the time let alone when my next appointment with the community midwife was or next scan or blood test… and inching into the 3rd trimester, gestational diabetes with even more appointments and eventually insulin. I did try utilising a moleskins but I just couldn’t make it work. I bought a beautiful vintage pink personal Finchley thinking I would start over in a personal size after being in a pocket size for so so so long. But nothing seemed to work for me. I JUST wasn’t interested.
Then once I gave birth, we had more appointments to check her over and we were re-admitted for jaundice. So again, I could have done with a planner.
But still, in my new mummy haze, I just didn’t have the time to spend on setting a planner up in the way that I’d like.
My daughter is now 3 and a half months old and I’m just coming out of the sleep deprived fog now, and I’m at the point where she doesn’t need me every minute of the day so I will be able to get my craftiness on whilst she sleeps in her Moses basket next to me.
So I think I’d like to try something a little outside of the Filofax community for a little while. I’m looking for a Kate Spade Wellesley zip around in either pink or black. I know I’m late to the party on these and I’ve been searching the Facebook groups but nothing so far. Anyone around selling one at all?
