When a planner size starts to feel different

I printed my June inserts yesterday and somehow ended up thinking about my planner size again.

FCC has been with me for years, especially my Gillio. I used to take it on every holiday, which is actually quite funny, because I never used it there.

It always came with me anyway and then spent most of the holiday sitting in my bag. On my last holiday, I left it at home for the first time, and looking back, maybe that was already a small clue.

Now that June is printed, this size suddenly feels different. It still feels familiar and very cute, but also a little small now.

My work looks very different these days than it did a few years ago. There are more projects, more notes and more things that need a place before they make sense.

I have even started using Post-its for bigger topics because simple to do lists are not always enough anymore.

So I think it might be time for a different setup. And honestly, I am looking forward to it.

I am curious which sections I will choose, which inserts will end up in there and whether I will finally find a place for all those Post-its.

I also know I am going to have way too much fun looking at planner inserts from other shops. Maybe that is part of the fun too.

And looking at this vacation photo now, I am pretty sure my planner spent more time in the sand than being opened. Maybe that should have told me something.

Let's see how long it takes until I start missing this little size again and come back to it.
