January 2018 Layout

Who’s ready for the new year? I’m so ready for a fresh start and to make this into a good side hustle. I also am so pumped to see all of you accomplish goals and become better human beings this year. (Not that you were horrible humans in 2017, but we all can improve.) 

I tried something new for this month’s layout. I made a title page for once and I honestly really enjoyed it. (The bucket list is not part of my January layout.)

As always, I have my goals page. I try to have at least ten goals each month because I’m ambitious and love challenging myself. I also have my period log which is super important to me for my health and wellness. 

Here is my empty month layout. I apologize for the color I used in my icons box. I didn’t realize how hard it would be to see it. I put a quote at the bottom to inspire me to get motivated and not to worry about the upcoming year. 

Each of my weekly pages are the same for January because I’m trying to see if consistency works for me. Each day has its own tracker for water intake, brushing teeth, washing my face, making my bed, and showering. 

On my last page, I put a fun coloring quote page. I figured I can color it in throughout the month. I also have a challenge page ready hiding behind this quote page. Be prepared for my January Challenge post! It will be a difficult one for people, but I think you all will enjoy it. 

Good luck journaling! I am always here for questions, suggestions, and submissions!

started my period today

[finagle-a-bagel]

This morning I bled through my bedsheets and my sister woke me up due to her exercise. So naturally I was pissed and so I've been being aggressive and I didn't even fucking say anything to her when she was like "what's your fucking problem???" And she was acting very rude to me and then I had to do my online women's history class and now I'm thinking about my grandma who's dead and I know today is gonna be difficult. Anyway, here's a picture of me from a month ago when I put on makeup and had a breakdown and started to just blend the eyeshadow out to my fucking jaw.

Self-Care: A Journal Exercise: Working In The Period Log. Ira Progoff PhD ©

If you were to see your life as naturally dividing itself into a dozen or so periods—in the way an art historian might look at a painter's life—what would the periods be? More specifically, what would the present period be? What are the characteristics of this current period of your life?

This period may have begun very recently, or it may extend back many years. It may have started with a new relationship, a new job, or a move to a new city. Perhaps it began with an idea for a new project, a marriage, or the birth of a child. Or it may have begun with a loss, a separation, or a death.

The current period of your life may be a time of hard work or a time of fallowness, of satisfaction or dissatisfaction, a time of ending or a time of beginning. Perhaps it began with an easily-identifiable event—a marriage, a birth, an accident, a change in employment. Or it may be a period characterized by a general quality of feeling—a pervasive enthusiasm or a cloud of depression.
