This will be our third time joining in with the challenge. Once again we hope to design a set of filofax / planner inserts for our reader to download, print and use. It would be great to have a theme again – we currently have our thinking caps on but please let us know if there is anything you would like to see or like for us to try and include?

N is for… Name Change

atoz of wedding planningNot every bride changes her name after the wedding. But if you are here is a handy checklist to get you started. If you are changing your name after you get married the key documents to update are your ID Documents and your bank accounts. Once this is done, the rest should be easy.

Different places have different requirements so it is useful to check these out and keep track of what you have changed. It is also useful to have multiple certified copies of your marriage certificate otherwise you will have to wait weeks between applications rather than sending them all in one go.

Post-Challenge Road Trip

Post A-to-Z Road Trip [2013]

It is that time again – time for the Post A-to-Z Challenge. I am looking forward to getting through the rest of the blogs on the linky list.

In anticipation of taking part in the post challenge road trip I included a section in my A to Z Notebook:

postchallengeroadtrip

I hope to “check-in” at the end of each month. I only hope I can keep up the momentum.

A to Z Challenge 2013 Reflections Post

survivor_[2013]

First of all I successfully finished the A to Z Challenge (and congratulations to all fellow participants). It was a great month. A big THANK YOU to all the A to Z team. I really enjoyed the Challenge and honestly have no criticisms on how the challenge is run and managed. As always the most frustrating thing is visiting blogs that are not participating – however, the team successfully cut down on the number of irrelevant blogs and when bloggers drop out there is not much one can do about it (and they can still be good blogs). Overall, a great team effort.

My personal reflections…

This year I entered 2 blogs into the challenge: this one and my writing blog Putting Pen to Paper. I still can’t believe I did it – it was intense. Yes it did help that I had pre-scheduled the posts of this blog (mainly because I also had the Filofax Inserts to prepare to accompany the blog post), but it was still busy and continuing to write the posts for my second blog was a challenge.

the good, the bad…

For me the most difficult thing about the challenge was keeping up with my regular writing (my regular blogging went out the window) and I did not work enough on my book. I only visited an average of 10 blogs a day throughout the challenge so I have a hefty post-challenge road-trip ahead of me. Originally I had hoped to use the Sundays to “catch up” with reading other people’s blogs but this didn’t really happen.

I have mentioned the difficult but some great things did come out of the challenge as well:

  • I found some great new blogs to read
  • I gained some new subscribers
  • I boosted my inserts collection for my personal sized filofax
  • I had the inspiration to start a new blog (more on this later)
  • I got plenty of use out of both my A to Z challenge notebook and my Blogging Filofax.

the blogging platform….

Perhaps one of the most interesting things about the challenge was entering one WordPress and one blogger blog into the challenge. I still by far prefer blogging using WordPress, however, the majority of the blogs in the challenge were Blogger. I found it easier to comment and link blogger to blogger  (although I still have no idea how to set up google friend connect  – sorry guys!).

the notebook….

The A to Z notebook has well and truly been used and scribbled over – just like how any good notebook should be:

atoznotebook

atoz2

The Filofax also got pretty chunky pretty quickly with all the inspiration floating around in my head and needing somewhere to land.

and finally… what now?

In many ways I am sad that the challenge is over (although I endeavour to carry on with my post-challenge road trip and finish visiting everyone on the list). Also I will try to check in with updates on the progress of the post-challenge road trip. But the real news is that I am starting a new blog (yes, a third blog is being tossed into the ring) . It will be a companion blog to my Career Development Workbook which I am currently putting together – so if you are interested in career development or particularly enjoyed my a to z theme on Putting Pen to Paper don’t be afraid to head on over and subscribe.

A to Z Round-Up

If you are just looking to download some of the Filofax Inserts (personal sized) the downloads page has now been updated with all the inserts created during the Challenge.

 

 

Z is for… ZigZag

a-to-z-letters-z

Welcome to the final day of the challenge. Congratulations to all fellow a to zer’s we have made it. The final letter of the alphabet (and the final day of the month) is here.

Insert Z

For this final post I have created more colourful inserts with a ZIGZAG pattern which can be seen slightly better in the second image.

The ZIGZAG pattern forms a border round blank inserts suitable for a personal sized filofax. I enjoy using pages with borders as it keeps the filofax pretty without the need to keep digging out the washi tape to jazz it up.

Insert Z (2)

Just print and punch.

Do you think borders are a suitable alternative to washi tape for decorating / brightening up paper? Or what other alternatives do you use?

Y is for … Yearly Goals

a-to-z-letters-y

I tend to keep running lists of things I want to achieve before the year-end. I wrote a list at the beginning of the year, but I am always finding more things to add to it – books I want to read, movies I want to watch etc. I find these lists great for adding to.

Y - cover

Y - read

This lists themselves are pretty self-explanatory and the full set can be downloaded using the link at the bottom of the page.

If there are any additional lists you keep and you would like – add them to the comments.
