Kat's life in Cali

Very old and beat up Midori Traveler's Notebook.  This is before the name change, thus the embossing shows "Midori" As some of you may know that I am reading the Bullet Journal Method book.  In one of the chapter, the author discussed how he fills in the monthly page after the fact and reflects what's actually going on on the day.  I have adopted the same, but instead of writing it in my A5 ring notebook , I use my cut-down Midori Traveler's Notebook paired with A6 MD notebook .  A5 ring is for my work notebook and it gets use and open in the public quite often.  I don't feel comfortable to have my daily reflection/journals in it with the possibility that others may see it.
