Look, it is not NEWS that I don't know how friends work

[spindizzy]

So today I realised that I might???? Have made work friends???? Like, I made a bag for one of my coworkers because she was just like "Susan. What. How do you have time to make all these things?" (The secret is ADHD and not giving a fuck if you're busted sewing at work!) and she counter-gifted me cute earrings and a little purse! ;______; And this is after we had a chat about how much I love cute earrings and keep a stash of stud earrings in my handbag because I always forget to put them in when I get dressed! So it feels really kind and thoughtful! And one of my other coworkers, who I keep showing my crafting stuff to, specifically brought in a cute little christmas tree she'd knitted and decorated so that I could see it! I THINK that means work friends!

I think my chill-out activity this afternoon is going to be hunting for a diary for next year, because I still don't want to take my filofax into work, but using my notebook as a diary flat-out isn't working. I know what I want! Just need to work out what format I want it to be in (bound, filofax, traveler's notebook, whatever) and see whether I can find it.

(I want an unlined diary/planner that's A6/B6 sized, starts weeks on Monday and has dates pre-printed, has a month on two page calendar, and ideally some form of week+notes. I'm giving myself a few days to just SUBMERGE myself in window shopping, should find some inspiration that way.)

[ETA: I HAVE FOUND A DIARY THAT I WANT! Courtesy of tambourine and marybethdecker making recs and showing me photos of a Muji B6 Monthly/Weekly diary which fits pretty much all of my criteria! And it even starts in December so that I can start using it as soon as it arrives!]
