DAYS OF MY LIFE.....

 

I have set up my new Journal for 2024
Above is the cover holding
my 2024 Hobonichi Techo Weeks
life book
below:

My color for the New Year is
lavender....

My Monthly at-a-glance calendar 
is all set up for appointments, etc.

And below, my weekly/daily 
at-a-glance 
is ready to go also...

It has my meals (L) for each day and 
on the little right square a daily reminder for
my allergy pill and my daily eye drops...

On the 2nd page (R) is just a daily few lines
for things I want to remember...
AND
I also put the time I get up, temp,
and weather on the gray-colored line...

[that little diamond encrusted wing is
left over from an older broken 
charm bracelet-- as is the
little beach sandal...]

Here, below are my actual diary
pages, watercolored and 
"stickerized" :
(this should be a word hahaha!!)

Sections are dated, the moon phase 
is hand-drawn and
colored-in 
for each daily entry...

My spine danglers are
a poodle (blue)
for my little growing up doggie
"Jou-Jou"
and a mother-of-pearl heart with a 
butterfly that a close friend
gifted me...

I visit my Journal 1st thing
each morning....;))))
anchoring my day....
then,,,,,,
I usually do my crossword and
check blogland for
comments and posts...
 

***************************************
As this old year closes and
the "Janus" doorway opens to
2024, I want to thank all
my followers and readers
for the lovely comments and 
 support and encouragement
for all of my projects..

I truly appreciate you all--
:))))))))))))))
💓💙💚💛💜💝

Many many hugs,
Julierose,
La Blageuse
{see-you-all-in-2024-euse}

P.S.  Do any of you remember that
soap opera--
"Days of Our Lives"???
