Video summary

In this weekly planning update, the creator Yoshida from Norse Cove revisits her new planner insert to demonstrate how she organized and executed tasks from the previous week while preparing for the current one. She explains that although Sunday is designated as a rest and recovery day within her 30-day wellness lock-in program, she still prioritized getting in her daily steps despite oversleeping due to a busy mind filled with creative ideas. The video highlights a mix of completed achievements, such as attending doctor's appointments, making oil change reservations, paying car notes, and successfully logging weight training sessions, alongside items that were postponed or missed, like decluttering and following the meal plan strictly. She also shares her process for transferring late-night thoughts into actionable tasks in her phone's notes app before integrating them into her physical planner. The core of the video focuses on setting up the week ahead with a detailed look at her fitness routine and administrative goals. Yoshida outlines her specific workout schedule, which includes running on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, lifting weights on Tuesdays, walking on Wednesdays and Fridays, and resting on Sundays. She details her approach to meal planning, noting that she is adjusting her diet to include more carbohydrates and fiber-rich foods like beans after realizing her previous carb intake was too low. Additionally, she discusses upcoming appointments for lung screening, blood work, and orthopedic consultations, explaining how she will need to wake up extra early for the blood test which requires fasting. She also mentions personal events like her son's birthday and a best friend's birthday that will be noted on her calendar. A significant portion of the content is dedicated to showcasing her creative customization of the Happy Planner system with various stickers, clip art, and decorative elements. Yoshida demonstrates how she has created custom kits for fitness tracking, including larger "fitness dolls" or icons to replace tiny ones from previous planners, making them easier to use on the go. She shares her excitement over new sticker books arriving from a creator named Anika and shows off her latest Hobonichi cover design, which features a black magazine-style aesthetic inspired by 90s movies rather than vintage Vogue covers. Throughout the process, she admits to forgetting that she had already purchased certain fall-themed stickers in April, leading to a humorous realization that she now has even more cutting and organizing to do. Ultimately, the video serves as both an accountability check-in and a tutorial on maintaining a balanced lifestyle through strategic planning. Yoshida emphasizes the importance of flexibility, acknowledging that while she aims to stick to her trackers and meal plans, life happens and adjustments are necessary. She concludes by encouraging viewers to subscribe and turn on notifications for future updates, promising to continue refining her systems as she moves into October. The overarching message is one of mindful productivity, where planning allows her to manage a busy schedule involving work, fitness, family obligations, and creative projects without feeling overwhelmed.

Hey friends, welcome to or welcome back to Norse Cove. If you're new here, I'm Yoshida and here at the Cove, we like to budget and plan in confidence using a planner. Today, you guys, we're going to revisit last week in that new insert that I was raving about. So, let's see what got done. Today is Sunday, so we're just prepping for the week. And I was just going to do it by myself. And I was like, you know what? Let me film a video so that I can show y'all how I am loving this insert. So, this was last week. Let me move this to the side. And we got a lot of stuff done. Like I told you, this would probably get a little busy and it did. Um, so I just do go in and check things off as they got done. My tracker, I stuck to my tracker. Now, today is Sunday, so after I film this, I need to um go get my steps in. Today is actually a rest and recovery day, but because I'm doing my wellness and my 30-day lock in, I need to get my steps in. I didn't get up till 10:30 this morning. I had planned to go walk in. So, I slept in not by choice, but I just couldn't sleep last night because I had so many ideas, so many things just going through my head, y'all. That's what I've been doing all day. The reason why I don't have no steps, I've been in this office because I've been creating things for you guys. I've been uh just working my little self to death because all of the things that was going through my head last night up until like 4:30 this morning, I wrote in my phone. Well, I put in my notes app and I've been transferring those things and getting them done. So, none nonetheless, I didn't I overslept this morning. Way overslept. So, I haven't had a chance to get my steps in. And like I said, today is really a rest recovery day where I wouldn't do anything, but I'm just trying to get at least my steps in. So, let's see what else. We've added some more affirmations. Um, we made doctor's appointments. We made our oil change appointment. I did do some filming last week and the decluttering I did not. It was kind of busy. So, we're going to move that to next week. Um, I did order some paper. I didn't order sticker paper, but now that I've came in and created so much stuff today, um, I need to order some sticker paper. Let's see. We made our radiology appointment. We paid our car note. This was a weights day. I did do weights this day. I just didn't get my run in. And that's another thing. So, looking at the habit um tracker, I some days I don't run, so that's fine. But I did not really follow the meal plan last week. So, I'm going to show you guys a little snippet of my workout planner that I talked about my last video and how I planned and like what's to come um with that. So, I did my weekly highlights. I I wrote in that I PRD um my three mile time and then I said I finally figured out my Strava app. So y'all probably been seeing some of my um if you follow my social media and I put a little bit here on YouTube, you've probably seen um my mileage in my videos and so I put Wednesday I made it to the gym and then also which I forgot to put down. I pred put it here. I pred my first two mouths on Saturday. So, did that. Okay. And then, so here's what we have going on next week. We have my son's birthday, one of my besties birthday. We got a oil change. We have a lung screening, blood work, um a doctor's appointment, an ortho appointment, and get back to my program and healthy eating, and I'll show y'all how I do that. All right, so let's get into this week. So, let's just go ahead and move some things over. Now, I've already come in here and put some things down, like my work schedule, these doctor's appointments. I just needed to get that in. I've gone in and put in, you know, the days that I walk, the days that I do weights. So, that's there. And what day we have the oil change is Wednesday. So, that's there already. Um, I'mma put over here in the task is to order sticker paper. And I did order some new sticker paper. I'mma test out some washi paper and see how I like it. I really don't want to fool with it, but you know, hey. And so we also need to declutter. Like that's what I also been doing today was breaking down Amazon boxes, but um yeah, I didn't do that. And over here I put follow running plan and menu plan. So we're just going to we're not going to put that this week. And then our habits, let's follow those. So I'm just going to put walk I'm going just put walk and then steps as one. Then I'mma put weights, run, and then follow plan. Follow meals, meal plan, and then social media. And you guys, I have a mic. I look, that's what I was doing up four o'clock in the morning. I'm on Amazon. And after like re-watching my video, I was like, "Girl, the audio sounds terrible. The lighting is off. Let's Let's finally get a mic." I had one, but let's get a better mic. Okay, close rings. Yeah, my brain was going crazy last night. All right. So, up here, I think I've already I'mma put Monday, Tuesday. Okay. So, we got our habits. Now, weekly highlights. We'll come back and do that later. And then next week, let's look at the calendar. Next week is will be the first of the month. Um, I don't think we have anything. Oh, I'm going to get gifts. get girls trip gifts. Okay. All right. And then let's flip back over. And then on Monday also, I need to make a note to um put some money in my high yield savings account and or accounts. And then I'm going to put slash CDs. Okay. And y'all, this is pretty much it. I don't know what kind of deco I'm doing, but let's do some type of decoing. Deco. So, I just have a few little stickers here. And I want to get back to my reading. I don't want to add too much on my plate, but I have a little foul stickers. This is kind of what I'm into right now. And then I was on Etsy because I had this great idea. I was like, "Oh, yeah, my you'll see it later." But I was like, "Yeah, my planner. I need my um I need some fitness dolls." If I told y'all how my brain be working sometime, works overtime. My brain was working overtime last night. So, I go on Etsy to order some, you know, clip. All right. Well, this morning I get up and I see that um here, you know, of course I I waited till this morning to do my files to download the files. Well, why had fall stickers already bought? I bought them back in April. I bought them in April. Totally forgot. And there's something else there that I ordered some more clip art that I bought and I totally forgot. Totally to listen. Totally forgot. So I'm like, "What in the world is wrong with you, girl?" Like, "Oh, Jesus. Just just really pray for me because my mind I said, "So now I got more to do than what I originally thought I had to do. So now I got to get all these stickers down and cut." Oh, that's pretty cute. And then we're going to take this. I don't know why September and October. I just think orange. Maybe because you know of fall. We're not going to do too much of the highlighting. Thursday. Something is going on Thursday. I know I work work Friday. H I'm going to put this here Thursday so I can kind of log my miles. I'm going to put it right there. So, that's what I'll do. And then I'm supposed to run tomorrow, but I have to be at the doctor. I have to do the blood work. I didn't know that my appointment was this week. I was thinking it was next week. And so, I thought this was the week I do the blood work, but it's not. So, I'm going to have to get up extra early and do blood work. Um, so that I can at least get my run in. And I have to fast. So, I have to figure that out. So, I'm going to put my mouths here and then I'll do another one here. I really didn't want too much color on this because I just really wanted to um I have weight in right here. So, I'll write that there. So, that's that. All right. We got a couple of florals. We got this. And I I think I want some dots. Let me see real quick. I got some dots in here. Oh, and I'm going to take this. I'm going take this. This is from Ana. And speaking of Anika, I have some sticker books coming from her. I am too excited. I can't wait to show you guys. And I'm just gonna log my weight right there on this. Okay. And these are from Pretty Press. Love her stickers. Okay. And I'll probably add more things to the test list, but I'm just not certain of everything that I have to do. But this is what it's looking like for right now. Big difference. Well, from last week, but you know, just the point is to just get everything done. So, I'm going to cut some slits in here. Okay. So, let's pop these in and then let's see what it's looking like. All right, there we go. So, that's what this week is looking like so far. So, basically, I run Monday, Thursday, and Saturday. I lift weights on Tuesday, Wednesday is a walk day, Friday is a walk day, Sunday is a rest and recovery day. Okay? And so, I'm going to show you guys the big bigger picture of this in my fitness planner that I talked about yesterday. So, I kind of played a little bit. Put that to the side. So, while we're just, you know, doing a little show and tell, this is the pocket. I changed her up. Isn't she cute? So, I just went on P I was on Pinterest in the middle of the night. I'm on Pinterest, so I'm downloading stuff. And so, this is just a quick little flip of her. I'm going to put a full flip on my Tik Tok. So, if you are on Tik Tok, um you should go on over there and follow me. Norris Cove on Tik Tok. And then here here is the the workout planner, the happy planner. So, I was going to change the disc, but I think I'm going to leave them. I don't know cuz I'm just getting the feel of it. So, let's get to September. And so, I decorated the monthly like this. I'm going to add some more stuff like once I get my stickers. I ordered some stickers from the planner spot and then when I get some stickers from Anika, I'm going to add some more. But right now, this is really kind of cool with me. And then this was last week and I didn't want to kind of backfill it because I probably will later. I'll back fill it later. But this is this week in my fitness planner. And then what I'm going to do, and it'll probably be Tik Tok content, maybe not necessarily content over here, but it could be. So, what I did was each day I've already wrote down the workouts I'm supposed to do. So, Monday is an easy run, 3 to four miles. Tuesday is strength, strength, a lower body plus pushpull, and then I'll be able to go to the gym. And then Wednesday is a recovery day, walk 30 to 45 minutes, and then a 10 to 15 minute walk after dinner. Thursday, quality running. So, it's more detailed over here. So quality running, excuse me, quality running day and this should take me about 40 minutes. So I'm doing 10 minute easy run, a three minute moderate run, a 3 minute easy run and then I repeat that four times and then it's on my thing that said 5 to 10 finish 5 to 10 minutes easy. So a 5 to 10 minute easy part run. And then on Friday is strength B. I already know what that is. I didn't have enough room to write here, but I know what it is. is pretty much um full body. And then Saturday is my long easy run and it's an endurance day. So like last week I did four miles. The week before I did four miles, but because I wasn't stuck on my food plan, I just did the four miles plus I waited too late to get out the house. So this week I definitely need to try to get 4 and 1/2 to 5 miles. And then Sunday is the rest recovery. And then I just put walk and get 8,000 steps and close rings. And then that's why I have the doll here because this is fitness. So I have no reason to put anything else here. Okay. So this is what I got going on. So I created like a menu sticker, a grocery list sticker, excuse me. And then these were the dolls. So this is kind of what it looked like before. They was just tiny. And I was just like, Yosha, they're too tiny. So I like tiny stickers. I'm not even going to hold you. But I was like, for since we're using the Happy Planner, we need a bigger. So, we do have the fulls size boxes and quarter boxes. As you see, I did two. So, I had these little tiny ones. So, I'm just going to save them for like my regular planner. Um, okay. And then this is the black one. This is the grocery list in black. And then here's the So, this is what they look like now. But they're actually a little different because I added some dots. but they may go on the site like this and you'll just get some little dots. And then um this is the black version. So, we'll probably be using her next week. And I didn't switch up the deco. You just got a different doll. And then this is this kit right here that I'm using, but like I said, I added like some little dots. And so, yeah. So, that's that. And so, I'm waiting. I need to actually pay for this commercial license cuz I was just going to use it for myself. And then after I made the grocery list, oh, and then I made this right here. I said, you know, this needs to be a kit. We just need to make a kit. So, I'm making a kit for this. The boxes will be for Happy Planner, but you could buy, you know, each page separate. So, this page is just good enough. Really, it's good for me. This is all I need. But you can just purchase this page or you can buy the whole kit or just the boxes, all that great stuff. So yeah, this is it. But I'm still kind of tweaking like the boxes. I feel like they're too big. I did the correct measurements, but I just feel like they're bigger than this here. Unless this ain't supposed to be like this, but yeah. So this is what the um fitness planner is looking like. And I am not going to hold you. I am loving it. I'm loving it. Now, the personal, she's definitely good for like on the go, but this does not need to come out the house, you know. So, what I can do is look in here. I can see and then I have my meals in here as well. So, I can look and say, okay, today, tomorrow is a run day. I don't need to know the meals because I'll this will be at home. You know what I mean? So yeah, but I'll still be logging the stuff in here because I want to, you know, I just want to. But this is it. So day by day, I'm going to kind of do out the meals. I haven't decided if I'm going to do it for the week yet. But I just think day by day, I'm going to put the meals in, add to my grocery list if I don't have anything. So I'm going to be checking my pantry. I'm setting up a whole new system so of me, you know, making sure that I have the things that I need for this so that I don't do like I did last week and don't eat the foods that I'm supposed to eat. Now, chat did say I could eat what I want. I think the meals that I was eating before chat gave me some of this stuff were good. It just wasn't a lot of carbs. So, um, but I've kind of looked and used the menu enough to know that I got to incorporate some type of carbs and that, um, I need beans for fiber, which I wasn't really eating a lot of beans. Um, but I did eat some fiber richch things. I can have apples, stuff like that. And so, this is kind of like my snack area over here. That's what I use the little weekend thing for was to put my snacks. I'll put any type of notes or, you know, whatever or whatever snacks I decide to put. That way, I can just I don't have to put snacks on the pages. I can just come over here and pick a snack. Okay, so that's that. I'm really loving this. Like, listen, I'm loving it. So, this will stay on my desk. I can e even take it upstairs to the kitchen if I need to. And then I think next week, there is no next week. So we can plan our October and which we'll probably do um either next week or one day this week and then we can just do October. So yeah, that is it. That is what I got going on. And that's me planning for the week. Oh, one more thing before I go, y'all. I'm so sorry. So, look what I did. The cover came today for the Hobonichi 86 Techno. Um, so I just added these covers. I was just going to leave it blank, but I had already printed this. This was going to go in here or I was just going to make it as like a tip in. But then it was like a perfect fit. So, I was like, you know what? This is what we're going to do. So, I love the '9s. You had to be there. You just really had to be there cuz it was a time, honey. So, I just wanted to do like a little magazine cover, a black magazine cover. And Love Jones is my favorite '90s movie like of pretty much of all time. So, I just did that. And what else? Oh, also thinking of covers. I was on TikTok and this guy was doing like vintage Vogue covers and they were nice and I said, "Wow." And he used like washi tape to add it to his Hobonichi. I didn't want to do that, but I did order the washi tape. But I was like, I don't really want to do that. But I just slid it in and I said, "Well, I don't really want Vogue. I want something black, you know, black excellence." And so this is what I came up with and I love it. I just left the spine exposed. And yeah. Oh, and then for this one, this is just what I got off of Pinterest. It's just I love music. So, I just did that. And anything else I updated in here? No. And oh, also this is my next week in my TN pocket TN. Again, she's like the grab and go. She's going to replicate what is or duplicate what is in my weekly. So, let's just see if everything lines up in here. She don't really get too much deco, but she will getting she'll be getting deco here on the side. So, everything I don't need to really put like my walks and all that stuff in. But, as you can see, I have weights and those. So, I just need to add those stickers. So, I don't really need to do much over here. And this is just things that I come up with. I can actually take this with me to the doctor on Tuesday. I also have an ortho appointment on Monday, but I think I'm going to cancel that because it's for my thumb, but I think they're going to tell me to get surgery, and I just don't want to do that. So, I think I'm going to cancel that and just hold off as long as I can. But that's what we got going on this week. This is kind of updating the things that's in my planner.
