So in thia case, seems bigger is better!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-89378861934833844722010-05-12T00:30:06.160-04:002010-05-12T00:30:06.160-04:00I have been thinking more about what to do regardi...I have been thinking more about what to do regarding my Filofax and keeping all my lists and info that I want in it. I love the idea of having things alphabetized so that they are neatly organized, but I know that the 26 tabs I would need to have each letter available would take up heaps of room. I have thought of a few other options, like using a plain white Filo page with a sticker or stamped Silver_Elixirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13168603897130780850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-42575639332530419662010-05-10T03:59:46.162-04:002010-05-10T03:59:46.162-04:00@Silver_Elixier: It also depends on your current f...@Silver_Elixier: It also depends on your current filofax size, or if you have more than one? My A5 stays at home. It has a tab labelled Ideas ("Lists" would have been another option), where reading-, movie- etc. lists go. If you have a pocket (or whatever) size that always travels with you, you can enter new ideas/list items on the fly, and transfer them in the "big book" Jotjehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07144301091362704402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-88124222943071211492010-05-10T03:14:56.405-04:002010-05-10T03:14:56.405-04:00Francesca, it is incredible how much information c...Francesca, it is incredible how much information can be cramped onto a single personal size Filofax page.
