What's new

Project Life? Day in the Life, Week in the Life? Virus Life!

I think this will be my one and only, unless I can find photos of the hospital vigils and praise sessions. I still watch that video- it one of humanity at its best!
 
I have done at least 15 virus-related pages, but not day today documentation. Most of mine are more art journal types. I did thing about putting them together in a Blurb magazine, but I like your approach of including facts rather than emotions and fears.
 
I did the first two weeks, but this week I am sort of "over" the whole thing. I may do a final count type page and maybe a collection of memes page.
 
I have yet to really find a good way to document everything. I have been journaling a little in my planner and I was thinking about doing a TN about this time, but I am having trouble focusing long enough to really get things done.
Plus, now I am getting distracted by a bunch of eggs popping up around here :giggle

This month I've decided to focus on the things we do as a family, and the similar things we so as individuals in/around our home.
My page on how we exercise has now finished filling up with photos.
 
I've done various artsy kind of pages but plan to go back now and add a page at the end of each month with the charts from Persnickety. I don't plan to do a specific book for this time because while it is a major part of our lives and in many ways controls our lives now, we do carry on in our own ways with our own lives. I think that page with the Persnickety chart will just take half of the 12x12 and I may add another TN sized photo for the other half, perhaps very light with journaling over it . I obviously haven't gone that far yet.:circles It still is hard to focus sometimes.
 
@cookingmylife Do a page about how it is hard for you to focus!

I've been in a discussion on another forum about long-term ramifications from this. In all reality, there are going to be many long-term ramifications that aren't even health related. For instance, the July 4th festival in my town (this year is #70) may not happen. My neighbor that mows my grass is on the committee and they are already talking about it. This is the major fund raiser for the Catholic Church in town. Other smaller festivals (and there are a lot in my county) are also being cancelled. Those businesses in those small towns that are already hurting may not recover.

I plan to add information in my pages about this as well. I really think this is going to be at least a year long project if not 2 years. But what a time capsule it will be for the future.
 
@HavaDrPepper Not sure if my lack of focus has any thing to do with Covid19 or is it just old age, or as almost all my friends over 50 feel - for themselves not just me! - early signs of dementia? But maybe May will have "lack of focus" as a Topic for one of the Challenges!!
 
@cookingmylife I will admit I sometimes have a lack of focus during all of this so you are not alone. Not often but there have been times. I just think for me it is that so much of the future is actually unknown.
 
So I went from daily pages to weekly after 21 full on COVID crazy days. I was a bit overwhelmed by the pressure of the whole thing, and going with weekly relaxed me.
