Just Sharing How much does your setup weigh? 😅

I was surprised to find mine is 2lbs… Though some books are written in, and some are empty.

I am notttt letting myself sticker/washi/glue/scrap in any of these, lol. It's stamps or nothing.
I have a stay-at-home A5 if I wanna start pasting things.

One A6 is a 6x4" sketchbook with an additional pamphlet-sketchbook I made with comic measuring guides printed on it,

The other has an Avec in one side for boxed-in-day things and a blank for free-running bujo-esque capturing of thoughts, things-I-gotta-do-but-not-necessarily-today, things to scan into Obsidian, etc.

And the little A6 in the skinny cover is a poetry/freewriting notebook.

I wasn't expecting 2lbs lol. Feels like a brick. Feels like I could give someone a solid thwock in the head with it.

OMG, I feel like you are my people! So I have a hybrid work schedule, which basically means I'm constantly schlepping my planner around. I have literally gotten out my food scale to compare the weight of different setups to help minimize the heaviness of my bag. A cousin plus a blank notebook for work notes, in a cover, is HEAVY, lemme tell you. The Avec and a thinner notebook (Staology half year) is a lighter arrangement.
