Know Your Numbers

When did you last have your blood pressure checked? Do you 'know your numbers'? Having your blood pressure checked is quite a simple thing to do on a regular basis. 

If you don't have your own monitor to do the check your local pharmacy will have one or you can buy one, they aren't too expensive. 

High or low blood pressure gives rise to lots of other medical conditions. I'm no medical expert, but there are plenty of on-line help pages that explain the conditions and how your blood pressure can be controlled. 

However, this isn't by any stretch of the imagination an on-line medical blog! If you are doing regular blood pressure checks on the instruction of your doctor, then this insert will not doubt help you record the numbers, there a lot of them! 

Doctors vary, but mine asked me to do three measurements spaced by a few minutes twice a day, so three in the morning and three in the evening. 


I have created this insert in A5 size and Personal size, it might scale ok to A6 size as well depending on how neat your hand writing is.

Summer Reading

During the recent hot weather I have been doing a lot of reading. Catching up on my 'To Be Read' stack of books!

I'm not a fast or as fast a reader as some people. I often get so absorbed in a book or a series of books I forget the title of the book I'm reading. 

To take the strain out of know what books I've read or haven't read yet I created a few different Filofax inserts which I hope you find useful too.

Yes I know there are websites and apps for this sort of thing, but a Filofax insert removes the privacy and data sharing concerns.

A4/A5 size inserts:

Personal size inserts:

Personal size on A4 plain paper:

Personal size pages on pre-punched A4 paper:
Please note these should also work on plain paper and then cut and punch to size. 

What books are you reading at the moment?
