I just printed up the sheets to keep track of everything... tho, I suppose I could use the Day One app on my iPhone too :giggle

so... how are you keeping track of your photos and what's going on for the week?

are you going to add it to your PL albums or keep it separate?
 
I'm going to attempt it. I usually forgot about it by mid-week, though. :) I'll use my Photo365 app and Day One app to keep track. I have my Day One app set to remind me at 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. I just need to remember to take photos throughout the day... that's where I go wrong!
 
I love the idea but next week is a horrible week to try it for me. Maybe I'll just do it on my own some other time.
 
I really love the idea of this (and the day in the life), but I never follow through! I might give it a try this week... it'd be a great way for me to use up some of my leftover paper PL stuff. Well, maybe. I'll have to figure out how to make that work.
 
I should have done it this week, LOL. Busiest. Week. Ever. I should do this, right? Maybe I will...
 
it will be crazy busy for me too... since it will be the start of a new homeschool year :)
 
Maybe?! I've been behind with life lately, but I'm this close >< to being back on track. I'll see how I feel between today and monday. If I do it, I plan on it being separate from PL>
 
I love it and will try to be more mindful to take pics. I think I'll just include it in my PL. Maybe as a special insert.
 
Doing it for sure. It is a BIG commitment and I'm so sick of my camera by the end of the week, but I did it in 2008 and 2011 and those are my very favorite albums to look at. For me it's worth it- but I don't do it every year. I should though.
 
I plan on doing it again...I am going to try to finish my last year AWIYL and I always insporporate it with my PL :) but 2 years ago I printed my album seperately :)

eta I am totally not caught up with this year's PL :)

this is exactly why I do it too... I just get the cheapy free Shutterfly albums normally... but this year I'm gonna do a Becky Higgins' mini album... I'm so excited :)
 
oh tell me more, I think this sounds extraordinary, and I usually make a week of something and quit, so this could be the thing for me!!
 
I want to do it, but then I remembered how far behind I am with my scrapbooking projects....adding another project just doesn't seem very smart. Plus this isn't a good week for it since we are going out of town this weekend without our son. :woot

I have done it twice before and love the albums I ended up with. I think my last one was in 2011, and it was while we were living in Belgium. So it's definitely time to do another one! Just need to get caught up on a few things first. :thumbsdowns

Being the great enabler that I am... http://aliedwards.com/a-week-in-the-life. That'll give you an idea of what it's all about. You could read about it for days. I'm a bit intimidated by the project, LOL. But I may do it... PL style :)

Okay this totally convinced me to do it. I think it'd be fun to look back on a week in 2013. :)
 
I'm going to have a good read up about it tonight but definitely something I would find interesting!
 
I forgot it about til I got home from my walk, but I will take the camera with us for tomorrow!
The kids were actually kinda excited about a book about us for a week.
first pic..
doggie poop behind the couch! bhahhaha..that about sums up my morning..b.hahahaha
 
that's what journaling cards are for... in case you forgot your camera or don't have many photos that day :)
