While January took its sweet sweet time, February came and left like it never happened! We're already halfway through March, and all I can say is, "where did the time go?"

I know this Plan With Me post is very late, but I still wanted to post it because I'm pretty happy with how my spreads turned out even though *spoiler alert*, they look a little gloomy.

January felt like it dragged a little too long. Anyhoo, today's post is one of my favorite Plan-With-Me posts because I love how my theme turned out even though my roses and leaves look like they were drawn by a 4-year old.

I'm going to be honest with you all! I haven't touched my bullet journal for almost 2 months! My pregnancy just drained all the willpower inside me to be productive, and I'm not even sorry.

I listened to my body and understood the importance of resting for the baby's development, so for almost two months, I did absolutely nothing which explains my silence on social media if you are one of the few who follow me closely. But the other night, while I was on the treadmill walking, I suddenly felt the weirdest urge to be productive! My juices started flowing again that night, and so here we are.

It's been a while since my last bullet journal post, and I am so glad to be finally back!

If you guys don't already know, I switched to an Erin Condren planner a few months ago after I used up all the pages of my first bullet journal.  It was great while it lasted, and sadly, I didn't last at all! To say that the transition from my bullet journal to a planner was challenging is an understatement. Don't get me wrong, the planner was really great, very cute, and the pages worked, but I have learned a few things about myself, and one of the things is that PLANNERS DON'T WORK FOR ME.

I'm nearing the end of my first bullet journal!

This notebook has changed my daily life, and I don't think I could ever live without one.

I kept all the layouts the same because they all still worked for me! I made the color theme green, because it is my birthday month, and Emerald is my birth stone. Also because I don't really have much variety when it comes to pretty color combos with my Tombow pens. And because I don't know how to draw jewels, I decorated my spreads with green vines, and leaves. How basic! 😂 🌿

I've decided to start doing this "Plan with Me" things every month. So basically, I will just show you guys the spreads I create at the beginning of the month, and a sample of my current weekly spread. This will also be the place where I update you guys on the materials I've been using, the new spreads I've added, and just all things BuJo! I hope you enjoy this new segment of the blog.
