Free For All Friday No 888 by Laurie

I'm yet to find any brand of diary/ planner inserts that include all the information I want, even with customisable inserts. To be fair, there is a lot of information I like to have visible in my day spaces, and some of it is very specific to where I live.

So each year I write the following details in the day spaces of my weekly planner, if they are not pre-printed:

- I write the sunrise and sunset times into each Sunday. Where I live, the daylight hours change drastically throughout the year and I like to see how much daylight I'll have, especially evening light.

- Moon phases

- Solstices and equinoxes

- The usual holidays where I live

- Cultural holidays (Halloween etc)

- Holidays in the countries where my loved ones live

- When the clocks change in my country and my family members' countries

What information do you like to have in your diary pages? Is it already pre-printed in the inserts you use, or do you have to write it in yourself?

As always on Fridays, feel free to discuss anything Filofax related!

Guest post series - 'Filohax' No. 24 - Paul

Thanks very much again to Paul for this twenty-fourth instalment of his wonderful guest post series.
You can find all of the 'Filohax' posts here.       

 

The A to Z of maximalism vs minimalism

I don't know about you, but if you're a Filofax collector you probably have a set or two of the original Filofax A-Z tabbed dividers stashed away. You may even have them in multi colours too. I know I have, and being a traditionalist I've always quietly put the multi coloured sets away in a draw - 'for a time when I might need them'. I've never liked them myself - each to their own - but there's too much going on for my liking, too many letters, too many colours. 

 

That is until a happy accident gave me a good use for them - or I should say one colour in particular - the red one , with the letters E and F in particular.

Because I switch my one diary and a few other sections between work and home binders, the inevitable mistake crept into the daily ritual of swapping them over and somehow the grey 'E/F' tabbed divider went missing. A mystery. A real 'Twilight Zone' moment. I was at work and the only other set of A-Z dividers to hand was a coloured set, so I clicked the red 'E/F' divider in. 

A few moments passed and I suddenly realised I had created another little Filohax - in my work binder I keep Fire/Emergency protocols/info behind the 'E/F' tab, I had even previously made a red Dymo tab to highlight this important section (making it quick to find in an emergency). 

 

In replacing the lost grey tab it was serendipitous that the tab I needed was...RED! I dare not mention this to anyone 'in the real world' as they would suggest I go 'get a life', but I think you lot will understand...
