three days into 2013.
are you feeling good?
blake & i decided to re-join a gym for the first time in years & we are lovin' it so far.
[we are more 'do hard workouts at home' people ; but i think the gym will be a great change of pace for us]
years ago, i use to be really into scrapbooking. there is a part of me that misses it. i love the idea of holding a 'hard copy' of your photo & then placing it somewhere where you can reference it for a really long time.
with my SLR & my iphone camera, i take a billion pictures, but never print them. they just stay on my computer.
recipes, love notes, coupons, dinner receipts, a tag from a new pair of yoga pants ; anything, really.
you add photos & journal however it works for you [full paragraphs, bullet points, ect]
blake & i are so busy right now & SO focused on paying down debt and saving for a house that sometimes we can let the little things slip past us [no way i am the only one...]. i want to remember those little things ; i want to be able to look back & smile hard, remembering the night we went for a walk and saw a bald eagle ; or the new breakfast place that serves our favorite food.
i want 2013 to be the year that i find joy in all the teeny, tiny things that are happening around me.
each week, i will be sharing my layouts, photos & products i will be using.
GAH! I am so stoked you're diving in! You will love it lady! (don't get behind. that's my main piece of advice... not like I know from experience or anything...nope...not at all...)
ReplyDeleteI want to start a for real Project Life (like in a binder) this year and am waiting for the Seafoam kit from Becky Higgins to arrive in stores/online. Usually I keep a journal and traditionally scrapbook big events. My problem last year when I started PL was not getting pictures printed in a timely fashion. I don't have a great printer for photos at home and couldn't keep up with Walgreen's orders or Shutterfly or Snapfish or anything on a weekly basis. What are suggestions for getting pictures printed regularly (not to mention the time to edit and organize and then print and pick up)so not to fall behind? I'd appreciate any tips on working that into a schedule.
ReplyDeletehey jess! i am ALSO waiting for the seafoam kit ;)
ReplyDeletei dont have tons of suggestions, just hoping i learn quickly..
we have a really great 'mom&pop' photo shop a block away, so i am hoping to print my photos there. i plan on always being a week or two behind on purpose, hopefully not ever more than that.
also, i have been journaling little tidbits here & there, so i wont forget about small moments in between now & when i am filling up my pages.
good luck!
