F*cking bullet journal.

Seven weeks of painstakingly organised chores, notes and planning - gone. Along with my fragile hopes for a better year this year.

When I discovered that I had binned/dropped on train/otherwise misplaced it and realised it was not coming back I sat at my desk and cried. AIBU?

I don't really know what one is but it sounds like you put a lot of work in and it was important to you? Is it worth phoning the train lost property? Yanbu I hope it somehow turns up.
You're not doing what I would do and massively catastrophising and it's really in your handbag or something are you?

Oh fuck! Really fucking sorry.
Yes give the train company a call really hope it turns up.

Oh, OP, I feel your pain. I live in fear of losing a paper to do list. I am trying to do a simplified version of bullet version myself and feel a bit panicky if it's not nearby.

Definitely call the train company lost property people to see if it has been picked up by the train cleaners or handed in. Hopefully it will - people leave all sorts of stuff on trains so they are well set up to collect everything up and give it back if asked.

In future, I think the Bullet Journal community recommend putting your contact details in it, so it can be reunited if lost and found by a nice helpful person.

Have you joined us on the Bullet Journal thread in Housekeeping? We will feel your pain.

There used to be a therapist in New York who specialised in helping clients resurrect their lives when they'd lost their Filofaxes.
Probably urban myth.

And breathe... I begged the universe to send it back and ...

DD unearthed it in DS's toy box along with a library book and some other stuff he had filched.

I am pitifully grateful

oh, you poor thing - look for the BuJo wankers thread in housekeeping, you'll find people stroking stationary and obsessing over future logs and index pages.

I don't think I will cut it there. If I'm perfectly honest it's just a repository for all the things I amnot going to get done this year
