My Personal Circa Tragedy - Need Replacement bits and pieces
Unbeknownst to me while walking to lunch today, my can of coke that was in my backpack somehow got punctured and defiled ALL my wonderful Circa notebooks, about two months worth of novel notes, my planner (I have no idea how it got into the zippered cover, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the rest), and a composition notebook.
So now most of my Circa paper is ruined. I make some of my own, but I like having some Levenger pages too.
Does anyone have some Circa paper they'd be willing to sell me? I don't need a whole big bunch at the moment (which is why I'm not going to ebay right now), just some bits and pieces.
Mainly:
- annotation ruled (letter and junior, color and white)
- grid (letter and junior)
- project planner sheets (letter and junior - not priority)
- 3x5, perforated preferably (not priority)
Again, I don't need a whole lot. This is mainly a call for replacement bits and pieces.
Thanks y'all.

UGH!!
I am so sorry to hear about this! What a mess! :(
I will check my stash tonight and see what I have!
Hope today is better than yesterday!
sending smiles,
nay nay
I can share
Just contact me with your mailing address and I can stick some assorted materials in the mail. This also sounds like a good reason for a trip to the Circa bar if there is a Levenger anywhere near. I was in a Staples last weekend and they had some smallish packets of paper refills for their Rolla notebooks so you might be able to find some at a nearby Staples.
Thanks to All
Thanks to those who have so kindly helped me rebuild my Circa paper collection. Y'all are awesome.
teh package is in the mail
I sent it out yesterday. Not a lot but a sampling of some Levenger lined paper, assorted Levenger forms (todo list, daily pages, spending tracker, etc.), some Circa 3x5's, and a new pack of FC metropolitan note pages. Hope it helps.
:^)
That is wonderful. Thank you so much.
Did the package show up?
You never know how long the USPS takes.
oh
I'm sorry - I thought I'd emailed you. It did. Thank you so much again.
I feel for you
Although not as catacylsmic as you're coke experince I did once drop my filoFax binder on the ground causing all the papers to burst out and then the wind blow them around. This was my own fault because I carry my filoFax binder in my hand and at the time had developed the habit of hooking a finger through the closer band.
In trying to reassemble my binder I had the opportunity to review how I used it and my method of planning. I junked must of the stuff.
One specific section that went was contact pages. After the drop I realised that I never used any of this information so why the **** was I carrying it around? Phone numbers were all in my mobile phone and archived back home on my Mac's hard drive. If anyone gave me their number I added straight onto the phone (where I'd need it to be to call them) and then I made sure that evening to download the change(s) to my computer.
I also junked much of the pretty filoFax formats I was carrying "just in case". I never used them. They went too. I replaced these with plain sheets, which I found much more versatile in practice. I keep the tabs both those with icons and numbers. So sketches for my novel when in one place, thoughts on new software somewhere else. Drafts of emails had their own section too; when you are deep in the London Underground system where your mobile doesn't work and anyway you don't have a Blackberry drafting on paper wins every time.
Ironically I keep the section for ideas of new planner forms. I sketch these onto the same plain sheets as used in all the other sections.
Perhaps from your Circa tradegy something good will arise just as the need to reassess what was in my filoFax helped me to rationalise and re-organise the contents.
