About these pages, Heather writes:
"I love these overview spreads at the beginning of each month in The Happy Planner™. They help me organize various activities that otherwise are just swimming around in your head, waiting to be remembered two days too late. For my month of October, I have lots of weekend trips planned, so I used some various patterns of washi tape to mark off each trip. I used little arrow stickers to signify what days we were leaving and coming home."
Heather continues:
"One thing I did on this spread that I LOVE is use a little symbol key. I marked the days that my fiancé would be off of work with some orange stars and asterisks. Then I put a little key on the left "notes" column to remember what all those stickers meant. This is so much easier than having to write on every single day that he is off, plus it makes the whole spread neater and prettier. you can mix in different color of symbols if need be -- I only had one event I was marking this time. To finish the spread, I added some different stickers. Those leaf stickers just make me so happy -- Fall is coming!"
