Free for All Friday No. 720 by Nan

When was your first time? 

I mean, when was the first time Filofax entered your consciousness? Before you ever considered buying one. 

I first saw a Filofax display—a freestanding wooden rack—in a shop that sold high-quality women's clothing and accessories. It was the early 1980s, and apparently this was the latest accessory. I was fascinated by all the different leaves, and wondered who would need to carry around all that information, in a beautiful leather binder, no less. 

Well, me, apparently, since I went back to the store a few weeks later looking for a serious way to organize my life. 

As always on Friday, feel free to discuss anything related to ring-bound organizers.

Decisions decisions decisions…..

September is just around the corner. It is normally in September that I start to prepare my inserts for the next year. 

I take my time doing that. I download the files, pop them on my desktop and start to add extra details. 

I normally add key birthdays, UK public holidays, French pubic holidays, dates when the clocks change and anything else I need to remember!

September might seem a little early, but as I’ve found in previous years as we close in on the end of the year, events and trips start to get planned into the next year, so I like to have things ready to start adding those dates before they get forgotten. 

I will often have next years Year Planner printed out and in my organiser from the middle of the year onwards. That will be sufficient for adding the rough details. In 2022 my Year Planner has seen a lot of use…. Unlike 2021, when we were still in lock down for a lot of the year, so very little travelling. 

In September I will also be ordering my journal for 2023, I will be using the Quo Vadis Daily 21 as usual. I am going to be lost if they ever stop selling that day per page A5 planner that I use as a journal!!

Last year I played with the idea of changing from A5 to Personal size. Once again I’m tempted to try Personal Size again, but last year it didn’t happen, mainly because I had already printed out my A5 inserts, so it seemed like a waste of resources to duplicate a lot of the work. I might take another look at Personal Size this year, but before I do any serious printing. 

Will you be using the same size next year? Different layouts? When do you start preparing for the next year?
