A Few Too Many

It's possible that I might have made a few too many stickers to add to my planner. (I talked about buying a machine that--among other things--can make stickers.) Here's a picture of my 2019 planner, I've flipped it to the front section so you can see the way the year bulges.





It's not supposed to do that. :-/

But I added a deco sticker to every page and then I made stickers for my 5K training--I'm doing a 10 month plan. After that, I decided that I wanted to keep track of the temperature because I'd like to knit a temperature shawl. This is where the color you'd knit is dependent on the high temperature, so say the temp is 70 degrees, then I'd knit a row in green. If the temperature is 30, I'd knit a row in blue. Of course, I needed a sticker on every day to keep track of this, and then, I thought, well if I'm keeping track of the temperature, I might as well keep track of whether or not it's raining or sunny or whatever. More stickers!

I also made stickers for my free weights and the weight machines I use at the gym and stickers for the elliptical and for blogging and for trash day. I'd already bought stickers for when I work from home and have an appointment and for watering the plants, so of course, those are in there, too.

Basically, I'm stickered up the wazoo and I'd like to make more. I want to make airplane stickers with Delta aircraft--I work at Delta--and I'd like to make my own deco stickers and social media stickers and, well, the list goes on and on.

But now, when I try to write on my planner, it's hard because of the wad of stickers in there. As much as I love having my pages decorated, I'm going to need to rethink this for my 2020 planner because gah!
