Ah! I love this! This was so fun to watch.

Ugh travel delays are the pits!! I’m glad you’re safe though and didn’t end up traveling into the storm. I really liked your thought at the end of the video regarding “writing history books” that’s such a great analogy.

Ye, hello, of course 31 days! 😂 Love that others have sticker ' buckets'. The blue numbers looked great when all done. Fun to see you trying your planner 😊🧡

Hi Allison hope both kids have a great year at college👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 my older brother loves Dolly Parton's💜💗💛💚 going have make the Blueberry muffins with The grandkids they love💜💗💛💚 baking with grandma 👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 thank you for sharing🤗🤗🤗🤗 have a Blessed day 💜💜💜💜

You have inspired me to do a monthly view on the calendar in the front of my hobonochi and it’s been fun and added to the creative process for sure.

I agree!! It's a little peeve of mine, when things don't include 31, for longer months! It is so limiting.

I was staring at that “feet on the ground, head in the clouds” sticker willing you to use it bc it would have been perfect. 😂 canceled flights are the worst!

WOW beautiful journals👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 thank you for sharing🤗🤗🤗🤗 have a Blessed day💜💜💜💜

Hope you would able to go see Axel the next day. Hope both kids have a great year at college. ❤ Great journal session as always!

One of my favorite quotes for when I run into a delay and get frustrated is, "Sometimes a delay is a blessing.". I might have to repeat it to myself multiple times but it eventually settles me because it is so very true! I was wondering about your trip during Debby's trip up the coast. I feel blessed to live on the east coast but i can't say it isn't nervewrackimg when these storms are predicted, especially since I lost my husband.

We love Tennessee and Portland My husband wants to move there. I work from home so it’s okay with me. He has not pick wish one . We are still working on it .

Oh, wow! I started watching some of your videos from 2020 because I’ve been meaning to go back and watch some and you being away was the right timing but now… I’ll watch both as I’m also in the middle of setting up a new area in my craft room, backing up pictures to an Ext HD and thinking again about starting to post videos on my channel. Hard for me to start posting as I overthink everything and I’m a little on the shy side. I would really like to do it to make some crafty, memory keeping friends. Not so much that I have that much to bring to the channel that’s not already out there. 😂 If that makes sense. Interesting that you bring up 2020 in this video. My son is also class of 2020! Different situation here with the kids in our lives and all they were and still are reverberating from. The after shock and new reality. I’ll say no more here but just wanted to share that we have a son graduating high school in the same year. Have a great week!

Oh no! I didn't realise you'd had that delay to your trip. Ah! The curse of gluing preemptively in your journal! Hahaha. Hope you've had the best time with your kids. ❤

Beautiful pages👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 love all the stencils👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 thank you for sharing🤗🤗🤗🤗 love and hugs 💜🤗💗🤗you and your family take care have a Blessed day💜💜💜💜

Oh no, how frustrating. 😆 Debbie was a serious storm. Question : would heat remove stickers / card. Great recovery. A fun page / memory.

Have a great trip Allison!! I look forward to seeing you when you are back. I’m sad that summer is ending, but this will be my last school year before retirement-

Yay!! I’m so glad you decided to take your journal. But did you find time to use it? I hope you’re having heaps of fun

Hope you're getting organized & ready to go on your trip. It's hard to decide. Have a great time & prayers for a safe trip.

Lovely journal with so much life in it and captured. Love that sketch girl about wearing shorts. Thank you for sharing your creative journaling and your days. 😊 Big big hug for missing your dad. 💜💜

WOW beautiful pages👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 love it💜💗💛💚 have a Blessed day💜💜💜💜

Thank you for flipping your perfectly sweet June journal. My heart still aches for you and I cry right along with you, I feel it too friend ❤

I have been so busy with August since my mom sold her house and moving to Mexico to retire. I did t or have not done much 😢. I will get ready with September and start so I stay on top of it

Great video👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 our youngest son used to work at Texas Roadhouse he was a cook 👍👍👍👍yes they do have good food👍👍👍👍 thank you for sharing🤗🤗🤗🤗 have a Blessed day💜💜💜💜

You're doing better than me! Hahah. I journaled almost nothing in June. I just gave up. Hahah. June got away from me. Your journal is just beautiful. I love it. Sending you love always my friend ❤

I'm glad that you had a great school year. We get out in May after we start. Loved the memories about your dad. ❤ Hugs my friend. Great flip through as always!

Great job. I understand the sad that goes along with no more soccer. My daughter played from age 5 until 19. She decided not to play in college. I was really disappointed, but her choice. Love your journal. You are so fun to watch & listen to. TFS

Love this journal, Allison! Thank you for sharing - and I'm so sorry that you still are so sad about your Dad; it's the worst, isn't it. Lovely way of honoring him though, and giggling at the Victoria's Secret bag!! My family always says that humor is our coping mechanism....and thanks for the shout out, so glad you liked your shrimp!!!! xoxo

I love this junky junk journal! You always have fun bits to put in. Did you finish the challenge?

I think the journal harvest idea is brilliant. You asked what we do with unused journal pages… I don’t think I have any like this. I tend to make a whole page at a time, in other words, I don’t really prep pages ahead of time… but if I did i would definitely pepper those pages through out a daily journal.

Wrote the other comment before I got to your emotions about your Dad. Thank you for being vulnerable with us. Sending you strength on your grief journey. It’s long, isn’t it? ❤

Hate wasps but the would love to make a bee journal one day. I know we’ve talked about that in the past. On the big to do list….😊-- Melissa.

Hi Allison love💜💗💛💚 watching your video👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 beautiful pages👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋 have a Blessed day💜💜💜💜

This was fun to watch you go through your old journals but couldn't believe you actually ripped the pages out of them. Love the two journals you made. You are so good at matching pages. I love the front covers on each if you leave them as such!! TFS

Fun journal. Love watching you stumble through your journaling but it turns out cool!!! TFS

Recycling ♻️ the recycling ♻️!!!😁

Thanks for sharing, Allison - it was so fun to see your old journals (and scary to see you rip the pages out!!!) I adore the two little journals you put together; made me wanna dig out my paint! xo

Oh so fun Allison! I think this is a fun idea!

I think what you're doing is smart. I bet we all have a lot of unused pages in our journals. I know I do because I love starting new journals . I think one of them should be a new art journal and you should give us prompts for a month. You asked.😊

I did this a few years back and it reduced a lot of clutter from unfinished pages and created a lot of new beautiful pieces/journals ❤️

I think you are at the beginning of a fun journal. The pages would be a great background for photos. Maybe of you doing art with kids

That journal is beautiful. Could you use it for a current daily journal? It’s the journal that didn’t have any writing. I didn’t watch till the end before i commented. I love the journal you made!

WOW beautiful happy👍👍👍👍🌼💐🌷🌺🌻🌹🌸🦋🦋🦋🦋 mail 📬📬📬📬thank you for sharing🤗🤗🤗🤗 have a Blessed day💜💜💜💜

Great haul. Generous share by Franny. I'm super jealous of the napkins!! I can't find any that are that pretty & super expensive. Your kids will be so happy. You too!!

I have to say, I admire you for trying so hard to make the sticker basket work. I just don’t think I could do it. Mine are in a basket, but they stand up instead of lay down. Just seems so much easier to me to flip through. I hope you are having a really great time on your vacation. Thank you for leaving us with videos so we don’t miss you too much.😊😊
