I am following along with Caylee’s Habit project. I remember reading Andrea and Olya’s posts about creating a new habit. I just needed the extra motivation to start….motivation provided by this:
The beautiful and practical Pretty Documented Habit planner. Find it here :

What I love about this planner is that you print off the pages you want/need on the paper you want to use and in the format that works for you. I love that you can choose. I went for the floral planner (because it’s so pretty). On the Pretty Organised blog, Caylee has a great tutorial on how to print and bind your booklet. I decided to have mine be half letter size. I printed on 32msg paper, so it’s nice and thick/smooth to write on.
After doing that, I folded the pages in half
I placed the pages all in order and then bound them using my usual pamphlet stitch. I LOVE how it turned out. I took to work today and started writing out my plan at lunch.
So what is the habit I want to create? I want exercise to become a part of my life again. I am a working mom so my time is very precious to me. Whenever I have a little of it free (after the lunches are made, homework is done, supper is prepared, kids are clean and sleeping) I usually just want to play in my art journals. But I have noticed some new back pain (probably from working at the Museum) and general loss of flexibility.
So here we go : I want to do my pilates workout three to four times a week. It doesn’t have to be the 45 minute one at first, but I want to have my core be strong again. I do a core training session at work on Fridays, but I want to have at least two other sessions at home during the week. Maybe even sneak in a weekend one!
Accountability is important so I’ll be checking in here at the mid-point and at the end of my 30 day stint. If you want to play along, check out this post by Caylee.
You go girl!
yeah!
You are awesome. So happy that we are taking this journey together ♥
me too!!!!
