I keep on trying writing short stories that I also draft in my Filofax. I also use it to keep my calendar. <br /><br />Plus, there is the pleasure to write with a Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670471598588344810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-75673639994813243262010-07-18T08:21:31.758-04:002010-07-18T08:21:31.758-04:00I use old diary pages as shopping lists for my Min...I use old diary pages as shopping lists for my Mini.

They're expensive, they're difficult to use, and they're never around when you need them. They're kind of like lawyers, come to think of it. (Lawyers, I'm sure you resemble that remark.)

You do have to trim the pages down a little bit on the long edge to get them to fit, but at least most of the paper gets reused.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03438320432549065662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-67655239133587120332010-07-16T11:04:11.033-04:002010-07-16T11:04:11.033-04:00JJ, it's not an archive of catalogs per se, bu...JJ, it's not an archive of catalogs per se, but have you seen Filofax's photos on Facebook?

I absolutely hate writing notes on post-its because then I have to save until the task is done, etc.... much better writing in the filo. Well as far as Filo doings this week, today I am finally going to open the three packs of Filofax A5 ruled notepaper I received at Christmas!

Steve, are you up for it? ;)<br /><br />As far as being greener, I have so many notebooks, Filofaxes and inserts I can't be considered green in my habit at all. BUT, for someone who only buys the inserts they need and keeps the same Filo year after year, it uses fewer resources than buying a whole new bound book each year.<br /><br />If only Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550291806241735598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-33769182294405649702010-07-16T01:36:23.097-04:002010-07-16T01:36:23.097-04:00Good Morning
