Another pen for the graveyard. This one lasted 53 pages and exactly one month.
That’ll do, pen

May
I find these month-long Alastair-esque trackers super satisfying. This was May’s.
Red Paper Boat
The kids a few doors down were setting off firecrackers in the back field a few nights ago. They left their trash, so I grabbed some of it for collage. And also to make a little paper boat.
Another One Bites the Dust
I killed another pen today. This one lasted 51 pages and 28 days.
New Journal
I started the yellow journal in January and the dark pink one in March. I started the light pink one on top last night. They all have about 150 pages. The yellow one has thinner paper, so it’s skinnier.
I’ve also killed a few pens along the way. R.I.P.
Inspector Thomas Is on the Job
I’m almost done Ruth the pink journal on top. They last me about two months, and it should be full by the end of April. So I need to decide which notebook I’m going to use next: the light pink one with white paper or the black one with black paper?
I haven’t used black paper in ages. It might be a good excuse to get some new sparkly gel pens and markers.
Another One Bites the Dust
I killed another pen. This one lasted four weeks and 52 pages. I have no idea why they’re so inconsistent. I only use them for actual writing, and my handwriting is pretty even.
These are all Zebra Sarasa Clip pens. I bought a package of five brown pens, so they all were purchased at the same time. They should be identical. The last two were used in the same notebook, so it isn’t a matter of more vs. less absorbent paper. It’s a mystery!
Day 5 Doodle
Today was the last day of NACO training.
Doodle
Today’s doodle. One more day of NACO training to go.
Stars
Two days of NACO training to go. There’s an area where my pen slid across the paper, because I started to fall asleep.
