October Plan With Me | Trying to Get Back on Track When Life Gets Messy

The Enchanted Planner

October is almost here… and apparently it's going to arrive right in the middle of a messy season. 😂
Regardless of whether I am ready for it or not...

In today’s October Plan With Me, I’m setting up my monthly pages while trying to get myself
and my brain back on track after a rough patch. Sometimes planning isn’t about having everything together — sometimes it’s just about sitting down, figuring out where you are, and finding your way forward again.

I’m decorating my October 2026 monthly spread with all the fall/Halloween goodness — orange, purple, florals, bats and just enough spooky. 🎃🦇

If life has been a little messy for you lately too, grab your planner, a coffee (or whatever is keeping you functional 😂), and plan along with me.

Thanks for hanging out with me. ❤️

I especially like “sometimes planning isn’t about having everything together” for your channel direction. That feels like the bigger theme you’ve naturally been moving toward lately: planning a life — actually living it, including the messy bits.

Love how that turned out

I’m sorry to that you are so exhausted, I feel that way everyday and get nowhere with the doctor. I have always been this way, but since I’ve had vertigo it is much, much worse. It’s frustrating, I feel for you.

Very pretty spread ❤ . I Hope you start feeling better soon.

It is definitely the meds, I hope they are monitoring your levels every 3 months because you can go Hypo so frickin quickly. The weight gain from having my thyroid levels regulated (middle age on top of it) really sucks and also adds to the exhaustion. But the headaches and fatigue and fog are all due to the meds. I feel for you and I hope you feel better soon.

I was diagnosed in 2012, and I still have days when the exhaustion takes over and disrupts my life. I'm not sure if you've looked into Hashimoto's Flares, but they can be debilitating. Adding Liothyronine (generic Cytomel) has reduced my flares. I hope you find a combination that works for your symptoms soon. I understand the struggle.

I am going on thyroid meds tomorrow. Weather and allergies have been bad too. Hugs!! I hope you can get it figured out. Love your spread!!😊

So glad to see you back again! Sorry to hear about your meds situation. It can be a bugger! I just got diagnosed with COPD and I have many of those same symptoms...I'm exhausted almost all the time, but I don't sleep well either. It's crazy. But the bronchodilators I have to take daily are causing me to cough and have extreme hoarseness. So it's a toss-up...either it's wheezing or coughing and laryngitis...take your pick! My Dr. will let me talk about as many issues as I want at one time...mind you they are all interrelated...I am one of his high needs patients...apparently they get paid more for taking patients like me who've had strokes and/or cardiac issues. Besides, who wants to argue with a crazy 74 yr. old pensioner! lol But, you're right where I am...no ambition or energy to do anything domestic. I make a to-do list in my planner on Monday, and what used to get done in one day, now takes the better part of a week...and sometimes stretches into the next week. Such a conundrum!!! Anyway...good to see you my friend! Btw love the florals!

Tiredness is usually from thyroid level too low

I get exhaustion when the dose needs to be adjusted - usually need a higher dose. Make sure you’re on name brand not generic because the dose is not consistent.
