Unbridled Excitement

I’ve recently been looking into purchasing an A5 sized ring bound due to needing more space with changing needs, and the fact that portability is no longer a limiting factor while I’m stuck at home.

I planned to buy a Gillio planner already, but I was stuck debating between a Compagna or Mia Cara. I wanted the Mia Cara for sure but color options were limited, and a lot of them were factory seconds. While the Compagnas had better color options, I already own a couple in a different size.

However, Gillio happened to announce on Instagram that they will be restocking a product that was last restocked in 2017!

I strongly believe it is the A5 Mia Cara, and I’m hoping to grab one in the Epoca undyed or rust or gold.

Monday and Tuesday already seem so far away, and I don’t know how I’ll manage.

My A5 sized inserts from the Filofax website are due to come within the next 3 days, and even though I’ll have the paper, I won’t quite have the planner yet to start using them.
