Are Day Planners Art?


I had planned on getting to bed early then be up so I could get so much more done on my day off but I stayed up too late. Actually I was on my way to bed at a reasonable rime when I diverted myself to the computer room, turned on the system and committed to just checking my mail...then I was hooked and I did not finish till 12:30 am!! I am so stupid at times. I ended sleeping in till 9:00 which is rare and did take some real commitment on my part.

I think I was hit by pollen during the night and my allergies are picking up. Feelings like I have a sore throat but I donot have any of the other symptomatology. I have one meeting at 1:00 today then I have the rest of the day to my self. I plan to to one of two things. Either waste my day going to free movies or go to the paperstore and start making my person planner and thought book. I was at a meeting a couple of weeks ago and the director of the a?rt Council was there and had made her own and I was quite taken with the planner she had constructed. I want to try it and see what evolves. I 'm off to the meeting now and will finish this evening ...

The meeting was OK but very irritating. The young Yahoo who who runs the elections accessibility committee is never prepare, calls meetings the day before and is always apologizing. I like the guy enough even though he looks like an aging “young Republican. I mean here I am dragging my sorry ass into the State Capitol on my day off. It would be nice to get at least a lunch even bottled water would be nice. But no he calls the meeting for 1:00. Well, I at least could sleep in.

I was set fee two hours later and I went to the paper store to follow up on my idea of building my own planner. I got in this papere warehouse and realized I did not what I was doing. I finally got some speckled card stock and left after the third sales person asked if they could help. I need to rummage round my room at home and see what kind of binder or such I have to work with. I may end up going to the local DI and see what they have. Usually DI has a good assortment of binders,real planners and all kinds of folders. I have some paper stock in my files. I'll check after House—Part II tonight.


I got a call from Dianne—she is fine. I was beginning to get worried. After she was bumped from her flight—twice. I never heard back. But she is at her mom's and today is the mother's 80th year. I was passed round the whole family. A little awkward but cute. Tomorrow the whole crew are leaving port their cruise—back in four days. I hope they stay away from pirates.
