July 2017 Bujo

As we start August I come to the end of the first journal I ever finished....and I have been trying off and on since I was a teen.
Here I am trying my weeklies as a month view.  I have many appointments that happen every week and I don't want to keep rewriting the same thing over and over.  That defeats the productivity of the whole bullet journal system in my opinion, plus I want to draw and doodle other things.  This months doodles are inspiration from #365doodleswithjohannafritz.

Then I sort of ran out of space for my running type list and I don't like where the check boxes are, they became confusing.  So I gave this up in search of a dutch door solution.



It moves in 2 places and the dates are just a thin strip which I taped down with a tiny piece of blue glitter washi.  Underneath I have running lists for the various projects and businesses I am part of and need to track.
The flowers and leaves are some things my mom cut out for me using her cricut I expect.  I am going to use some of them in the future for stencils.....

Week 2: Monday-Thursday

Day 5:  NO spending day.  It was a quiet Monday. Day 6:  I spent approx $6.00 to fill a prescription. I should probably update you on another goal I had for this year.  I have been trying to make it to the gym twice a week since January.  It doesn't seem like a big goal but some weeks it is tough. Truthfully I haven't made it even once in the last  two weeks but I got back on track today with a bootcamp class at the YMCA I go to.  Although I am not noticing much difference in my weight or how I look I have noticed a substantial difference in how I feel......GREAT!  I am also hoping it will translate into an improved softball season. I may never be in the shape I was at 20 again but I can certainly try and be closer than I am now. Today was also lunch date day.....my coworker brought pulled pork sandwiches with carrot stick and cherry tomatoes.  She also made chocolate peanut butter squares....ummm delicious.  I will have to get that ...

My Cup O Tea

Over the years I have become a fan of tea.  My favourites are non-caffeine.  Green Teas, herbal teas and rooibus.  Almost any loose leaf tea will do.  I once got chamomile tea from a friends parents and it was really just a whole baggie of chamomile flowers.....it was from a place in Sarnia, Ontario but I am not sure exactly where.  It just seems so much fresher when you can recognize it by sight.... In June while on vacation I found a tea store selling hand tied leaves.  What a fantastic aroma of jasmine.  It is the Madame Butterfly tea by Capital Teas (www.capitalteas.com).  It was very expensive and I just couldn't afford it but they certainly had lots of great teas. My most recent vacation in Florida found me in the Spice and Tea Exchange (www.spiceandtea.com) where I purchased a small bag of loose leaf hazelnut cookie tea.  Ceylon black base so not my usual herbal but wonderful smell and tastes very rich.  An enjoyable tea....
