So I have Hobonichi questions. Um, I have it in a case. This is my first year using a Hobonichi and I loved it. I am completely addicted to this planner. Um, I keep it in this Botany Green, uh, Paper Republic portfolio. I find that the little elastic keeping it closed, um, is hugely helpful. I had it in a plastic case at the beginning of the year and it was okay. This has been so much better. Um, I get why there are so many cases for the Hobonichi, like it works really well in a case. Um, obviously they know their product, whatever. So I'm gonna use this A5 size, um, because the Hobonichi over hangs quite a bit and I don't love that. And, um, it fills it up pretty well. This is as full as the Hobonichi can reasonably go. Um, and I don't love it being this full. My original thought was to use a Hobonichi cousin, just regular one next year, um, because I do need the A5 size. The most important part for me is the weekly layout. This planner for me and that's only available in the A5 sizes. So, um, let me know what your strong opinions are about the A5 Hobonichi options, because I'm not, I'm not going with Hobonichi again. It made sense when I wasn't putting it in a case, like the hardback, but then I put it in a case and it's kind of silly. So, um, I'm wondering if the Hobonichi is the correct way to go. Let me know what your strong opinions are about the A5 options for the Hobonichi because it's never too early to plan for next year.
