Please do not say you're not doing well. You're keeping yourself and 6 children alive, fed, and clothed. You're planning their meals, taking them to the hospital and the doctors, even when you're not feeling good yourself. You're striving to keep your mental health in check with the things you know you love, like purple sparkly things, and all of us who know mental health struggles know what a fight that it is. You know your strengths and weaknesses and you're trying to work around them. You are giving yourself grace, please continue to do so. You are doing AMAZING in the circumstances. Hugs xxxxxx
Dear one, first you've got a LOT on your plate, but you are surely well aware of that. What I really wanted to say is that it was (and is) never about the planners. Last year, I had a similar thing happen to me, although I don't have the family challenges you have. My life status changed, and I just started throwing different planner processes and stuff at it to make it work. It didn't. I realized it was my life that was in chaos, not my planner(s). So, I drilled down and started again very simply with just pen and paper. Also took more time to journal and reflect. It has been a year, but I'm back now, with just the right number of planning materials. I really just needed to think about what's important (again, not the planner). If no one else tells you, I think that you have done a beautiful job with your current planner (especially love the sparkly purple coffee and astonished fox dashboards)! Please have grace for yourself because you are in a challenging place right now, and if you need to take time, please do so. We'll be here when you get back (new subbie, here). Please know that you & your family are in my prayers. Thank you for sharing❣🌹
A similar thing happened to me when I was pretty much pushed to retire (the schools seem to want to get rid of the most experienced therapists (we cost too much, they can get 1 1/2-2 inexperienced SLP’s for the price…). They either convince you to leave or double up your caseload until you can’t keep up, I was devastated)…. But I gradually pulled myself up with simple lists… Sorry, just letting you know that lots of others of us have experienced similar planner breakdowns
Sometimes this is what we need, a good healthy distraction to keep our mind sane. I am new to your channel and I definitely think you could make this channel successful, you 😊
Hugs & prayers for You and Your family ❤ Enjoy Your _Beautiful_ planner ❣️ The decorations are lovely, not childish at all 🥰 You got a new subscriber 👍🏻
Just keep breathing, that’s the first step! Odd that planners don’t help us when the going gets tough - mine failed so I went to a notebook and there I’ve stayed! It works like a dream. However if yours brings you joy then it’s your answer! Take it easy, remember the big picture positives, rest your throat. The stressful times will pass & become memories only.
I would love to see a how to on that heat foiled divider! Prayers for you and your family. I’m a semi-retired speech pathologist and when I worked in the schools, sticky notes were the best way for me to develop a schedule! I have been diagnosed with ADHD/ADD and not dyslexia; however, we share many similar difficulties
Be sure to add some “me time” wellness in your planner, even if it’s a doodle page, coloring, anything you that makes you feel good! The caretakers and Mums/Moms out there need to take care of ourselves and as my friend @Planninglifewitherin says fill our cups so we are able to do what we need to! I highly recommend her channel as well as @theroseylifeplanner as they are not only inspiring and incredibly positive but they have their own challenges that they are handling and learning to give themselves grace! God bless you!
Your handwriting looks fine, to be honest. Most people don't like their own handwriting, just like they don't like their own voice or how they look in photo's 😅
