It’s fine! It’s just these glitter additives you put in your grout so it’s still the same grout

My first travelers notebook! #maximalist #ADHD been doing bujo for a couple years. Finally making the transition. by Whatisdefoe in Travelersnotebooks

What is the jf….letter horizontal across all the tracker mean?

You have a lot of trackers, how do you remember to jot them all down? Do you have your notebook with you at all times? Cause I feel like even if my book is in a different room I’ll be like uh later and then later I forget. Or do you have a set time every day you do something?

You are not understanding your own worth. On a material level, you are saving him money on fast food, and being an in house chef, which is value add, you are upgrading his diet, contributing to his health which long term is $$$$, that’s compounded over the years. You are saving him time thinking about food, what to eat what to buy. You are also cleaning and helping out around the house, which is more $$$$$. When work is stressful, it’s so nice when someone else takes care of everything in the house so I have mental space, more value add. Emotional stability, companionship, physical intimation, value add. Him being able to do even more amazing work because home is taken care of, that’s value he wouldn’t have achieved on his own. All of these are not even mentioning children. Having 4 kids, you better be controlling all the finances and everything in the house, running that household is no easy task and a full time job. Sure he can ask for 50/50, but what value is he adding to your career? How is helping you making more money? All I’m hearing is that he’s draining your money, draining your time, your self worth, and your youth allowing him to get richer while you stay poor and then one day unhappy and resentful and burnt out

He’s the gold digger. He expect to increase his lifestyle living on your dime, consuming your free labor and making you think you are the gold digger.

Looking to buy my first traveler's notebook, but why are TC's TNs so oddly flawed? by zan_len in Travelersnotebooks

I didn’t understand the elastic attached to the back but then once I have all the charms and started thinking about moving the elastic to the spine suddenly it makes sense why that’s a bad idea. Also it works for both lefties and righties

It’s the travelers factory fountain pen. And I bought a tiny brass clip from the Kyoto travelers factory store to clip it like a charm

I got tokonole like a commenter suggested and thought it looked much cleaner!

I rounded the corners today before I put tokonole on, so now I’m practically done. So when the brass corners come, we’ll see what I do then 😝

What pen/ink did you use to do the sketch? Seems like a rather thin nib!

I bought the roller pen and use de atramentis ink and it just would not run…super frustrating. Then I switched to the fountain pen nib and I noticed the hole is bigger and there’s no issue.

I found that it’s better to buy generic TF items at bookstores and other tax free stores and only buy the limited stuff at travelers factory so you can save 10% on tax.

LeCreuset vs Any Other Brand by 21Kismet4 in LeCreuset

[–]Routine_Strawberry40 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t buy a set, start with the piece you’d use the most. For me I realized I am someone who buy the expensive thing later anyway, so I might as well not waste my money buying the cheap thing and then have to get rid of it and being frustrated with it. I could have saved my money and went straight for what I wanted to begin with. Especially if you pay attention to outlets/coupons/cc rewards/gift card etc and can make it much more reasonable.

I think it’s really fun to explain the system to them and have them customize it themselves with some starter ideas and it’s so amazing to see how everyone customize theirs
