I love the fact that you have a log book. I kind of started doing one, but haven't quite got the dinamics of it all down pat yet. Holding a book and pencil in one hand and keeping the object you are viewing in the filed of view is sometimes very challenging. Trial and error will prevail and sooner or later it will all come together.
P.S. I noticed your Gluten free comment in your signature. I too am a ceoliac. Lucky for both of us that Stars are in fact gluten free  .

I'm still trying to get the ergonomics all sorted out so it's easy, because if it's not easy, I can't be bothered (sad, but it's a fact). I start with a list of objects I want to find on a sheet of paper. My "logbook" is really a notebook and bullet pen, so I can jot notes at the eyepiece. If I feel like sketching, I'll take a clipboard outside too. That, along with the Pocket Sky Atlas and a headlamp, seems to work for me. I write it up when I get inside.
