Finally added an agenda PM back into my life. I had one a few years ago, but had a difficult time finding inserts in the last country I lived in as I don't use it for a calendar, just tracking things, random notes, and lists.
Debated going with my beloved monogram to match my other SLGs, but as I use notebooks a lot in front of a lot construction guys/contractors (just had a contractor ask if we were house flippers! Noooo- we just move and renovate a lot
) and at doctor's offices/hospitals, figured DE was a little more discrete. Retiring my Ulysse in favor of canvas/easily refillable rings/card slots/etc.
Now the MM and Desktop are on my wishlist since for the first time in 6+ months, I will have my desk again (bouncing between 3 hotels, 2 AirBnBs, 2 homes as we searched for our *hopefully* forever or at least our 5+ years home)!

. Much nicer than the H imho. (Not that I don't like a lot of things H). I hope you have finally found THE home. We moved 3 times in 11 years. I hate moving.
Congratulations! I love it
Aw thanks!
I hear you. In the last 10 years, we have lived in 4 different countries and moved 5-7 times (and that's not including short term stays/hotels, ack, I can't really keep track any more).
I like a lot of things H too, but sometimes.... Had a lovely experience at LV boutique today and then we went to H. Even my teenage daughter was turned off. I was asking about a non-quota bag and got a lecture on how difficult it is get an H bag and how popular they are (mind you, I have bought a B/K/C and five other bags at H boutiques- I was even wearing my Constance! Yes, dear Hermès SA, I am aware
).
I purchased a second hand (but looks almost good as new) agenda pm in DE. Here it is inside the larger pocket of the Boétie pm. I didn’t wanna spend big bucks on the inserts, and I just wanted plain sheets of paper instead of the calendar-thing, as I like to take old-fashioned pen and paper notes sometimes. Sadly couldn’t find totally plain paper but did get these little grid pages from Amazon for €3, iirc it’s the A7 size. Just need to find a teeny pen to slot in the side.
Agendas I think will always be relevant! I shared mine earlier in this thread and was happy to see this article online in Salon. Here’s a link in case anyone is interested! And I love everyone’s agendas. I know I said it earlier but Filofax makes a variety of inserts that fit the LV pm agenda and I’m betting they might have some for the larger sizes. Enjoy writing and checking things off!

You can pry my paper planner from my cold, cramping hands
In the digital age, why do we persist in using paper planners? Writing goals down may help

Yes, definitely relevant. I use the following:
1. LV Graffiti Auguste Notebook Cover (with Take A Note A5 planner and Hobonichi Notebook) for work

No Lv, but I love my H agenda. It’s the perfect size for everyday as it fits into almost all my bags and coat pockets.
Like a lot of members have already said, there’s something special about the tactility of putting pen to paper. Helps everything sink in more.
Agenda = necessity

Agree and love that it fits in all my bags and lab coat
What pencils/pens are y'all using in your agendas? I have a very skinny Muji mechanical pencil that works perfectly in the agenda PM, but moved to an area with no Muji and these aren't available on-line. 
I use the LV gold pen DH bought me 20 years ago that was made for the small agenda. When they stopped making refills, I went to Laywine's in Yorkville and the gentleman who served me found a refill and made it workWhat pencils/pens are y'all using in your agendas?
