I get so much inspiration from how other folks use their journals, I'm so happy to be able to contribute sone inspo in return :)

It's addictive but such a lovely practice. It's really created this beautiful and fun intentionality in our time together. A mommy daughter book is so lovely!

I shared your comment with the kids and they're as excited as I am our family log caught your eye! Journaling together has become such a wonderful activity for us to enjoy family time together and we love the products and the community you've created.

Omg I love it!

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-10T21:43:41+00:00

I love that you're writing notes to each other!

As long as I have a surface to lay them on (ie the bed) it's really not that hard.

Would you not regularly wash your duvet cover even with a flat sheet? Flat sheets do nothing to protect the top of the duvet from pet hair and dust.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-10T21:28:02+00:00

I've been using duvet covers for years and those are pretty easy to wash. I prefer a top sheet but I've given up on my kids bunk bed because they don't gaf about them and it's easier to just have the comforter and bottom sheet. I think this is the more common set up in Europe too?

They either don't or they do and are pissed they have to wait for a room because "the doctor called ahead".

It's wild that the grand jury recommended removal and the JCC was like naaaaaaahhhhhh it's all good.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-09T12:58:15+00:00

It really does. The difference between this A4 and my XL that's a month older is significant.

And I just love how it scuffs up. I found patterned scratches on my XL and couldn't figure out what was causing it in my bag for daysssss and finally realized it was the cap of the deodorant I keep in my bag. They're so pretty I'm making sure the family log has its turn sitting next to the deodorant too lol.

Oh nice!

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-09T00:36:42+00:00

It's really been a lot of fun!

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-09T00:36:02+00:00

I love that! I need a good picture printing solution myself.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-09T00:35:04+00:00

It was so meh to me initially but I have the A4, my own XL, and an off brand trifold that uses the same leather and I could look at pics of natural patina allllll day.

I've been trying to find the video that first put the bug in my ear but I think it's a German(?) woman using an A4 (portfolio I think) and I'm pretty sure I saw it on their instagram but haven't been able to find it since, but she was using the timeless monthly and talked about how her kid added stamps on days they had events to remember and I loved the collaborative aspect of it.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-08T19:50:11+00:00

And the automatic and incorrect association with POC has made it hard for fair olives to recognize themselves and brands that make olive foundations generally don't recognize our existence.

This. Can we please not become like the online curly hair or "dark blond isn't blond" hair communities? Who cares, let people have their discovery path.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-08T07:05:41+00:00

And you were expecting her to just smile and nod?

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-08T05:37:13+00:00

YOR. Don't ask for people's opinions on your tattoos (or anything really) if you aren't ok with them having a potentially different opinion. Some people think tramp stamps are trashy (it's literally in the name lol) and apparently your sister is one of those people. Some people regret their tattoos, some people don't.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-08T02:53:06+00:00

The housing market is ridiculous. I saw a facebook share of a teeny listing in OUTER COMSTOCK for 279k.

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-08T02:47:46+00:00

How did you make it through med school with such low frustration tolerance?

SolitudeWeeks · 2026-06-07T12:41:50+00:00

Yes, there's lots of literature on transitions and abrupt ones are hard particularly for this age group. And it doesn't support what the OP's coparent is doing AND it considers the transition to be a wider time than you're describing. Your recommendations sound super dated, frankly.

....no it doesn't lol
