Plan With Me! | Plum Paper A5 Planner!

Hello, my dear friends, and welcome back to my channel! Today, we're diving into the world of planning, and I couldn't be more excited. We're going to map out the week of April 10th through the 16th, and let me tell you, it's going to be a week of serenity and simplicity. Why, you ask? Well, because I've recently made the switch to my new Plum Paper A5 vertical priorities planner.

Now, for the past few months, I've been rocking the 7x9 planner, and it served me well. But change can be invigorating, and that's precisely what I'm seeking with the A5 size. So, what's on the agenda, you wonder? Well, today's planning kit is a gem - a journaling kit by the amazing Hand Can Plan. Let's dive into the wonderful world of planning, shall we?

A Kit Full of Potential

First things first, let's unveil the goodies in this kit. There's a bonus sheet to start, packed with beautiful bonus Deco that's simply too pretty to resist. Who can say no to some bonus flair for our planning escapades, right? Then comes the main sheet, our trusty companion for the week.

This main sheet boasts date covers, torn strips, and some nifty flags. But wait, there's more! We also have the boxes and arrows page and the ever-delightful washi and scripts. Trust me when I say this kit equips us with everything we need to craft a visually stunning week.

A Date with Creativity

Alright, let's kick things off with the date covers, which make for an ideal starting point. As I place these date covers onto the pages, a thought crosses my mind. How do they compare to my old 7x9 planner? Will they fit as snugly as I hope? Well, let's find out.

As I carefully align the date covers, I notice that they indeed cover the whole space seamlessly. But here's where the creative twist comes in. Instead of solely relying on the covers, I'm contemplating embracing a more personalized touch. What if we use the date covers as a template and write in the days ourselves?

This approach offers a unique and personal touch to our planning journey. After all, those little squares don't seem to fit our grand vision, so why not go for the date covers with a dash of personal flair? The possibilities are endless!

Embracing the Week's Simplicity

Now, let's take a closer look at this week's plans. I'll let you in on a little secret – it's going to be a calm and quiet one. In fact, the serenity of this week is almost poetic. The only real plans I have are set for Thursday. So, as we zoom in on the details, you can see that I've decided to keep things simple and efficient.

Monday beckons me to the office for a full day of work, and so I jot down 'work at the office' to start the week. Tuesday and Wednesday, I'll be working from the comfort of my own home. Thursday presents the enigmatic choice of a half day off, but I'm yet to decide – work or leisure? It's a delightful conundrum, isn't it?

As we breeze through the days, we make space for little notes. Thursday, being garbage day, deserves a little reminder with a cute sticker. Oh, and there's another lovely habit I've embraced – tracking the weather. After all, it's essential to know what the elements have in store for us, right?

The Joy of Self-Care

Now, here's something I'm genuinely excited about. Thursday holds the promise of a well-deserved treat - a massage and pedicure. My parents gifted me a certificate for a local salon, and I'm ecstatic about it. Massages, in particular, have always been a form of self-care that I adore.

Have you ever fallen in love with the bliss of a massage? It's a transformative experience. While you might feel a bit tender the next day, the relaxation and rejuvenation it brings are worth every moment. Let me know your thoughts on massages in the comments - are they your go-to self-care too?

Dreaming of Sunshine

Lastly, we can't forget the important meetings and plans that punctuate our week. Sunday night brings a recurring meeting into focus, and a stylish blue box comes to the rescue. I'll pencil in the meeting details and get ready to tackle the week ahead.

As I wrap up my planning for this week, I take a moment to reflect on the array of stickers and possibilities I have left. There's still so much creative potential to explore. I might use the flags to mark my workouts or weave the beautiful floral stickers into the mix. After all, a planner is a canvas of possibilities, and I'm ready to paint this week with vibrant intentions.

Wrapping Up

So there you have it, my friends. Setting up my planner for the week is more than just a routine – it's a delightful journey of creativity and self-expression.
