100 Happy Days – 2022 edition

Well we’re back again for another year of 100 Happy Days. I’ve been doing this project since 2014? & I love taking a little snapshot daily of something that has made me happy. I start my 100 days on March 26 and go through until July 3rd. I use the Collect app to collect my images and at the end of the month use the collage feature.I originally had it posted on my main blog but moved it here in 2019 and I try and share my photos monthly.

What is the 100 Happy Days project? It’s a photo project that challenges you to post something that makes you happy, daily, for 100 days.

Day in the Life 2022

Playing along with Ali Edwards and doing Day in the Life.
I take my pictures and do all my journaling in the Day One app (I seriously love this app for memory keeping). I’ll most like make a fold out to add to my 2022 memory planner, similar to last year.

Week in the Life 2020

Week in the Life is a week-long documentation project from the amazing scrapbooker/memory keeper Ali Edwards. You can see previous years by clicking the WitL tag.

This year I ended up doing much more journaling than picture taking but the beauty of it is I can always go back and take photos later.

Most of our days were taken up with work (the joys of being your own boss and an essential service) and schooling from home. Or should I say the battle to get the eldest to do her schooling. 

I decided to add a little something new this year to my journaling and at the end of each day  filled in the answers to the following questions:

Today I:

  • watched
  • went
  • read
  • wore
  • listened to
  • ate
  • got up. went to bed
  • weather
  • made
  • on my list

Really apart from the schooling from home and not going anywhere unless really necessary, this year wasn’t all that different to previous years. Now to get my pages done in my Covid album.

Documenting December for 2019

It’s nearly that time of year again.

And…. last year didn’t happen and I ended up doing what I did for 2015-2017. A calendar and a bunch of 2×2 pictures.

Also, hadn’t shared them, so here they are…..

Plan for 2019??

  • 6x 8 album (this year will hopefully fill out the album I’ve used previous years
  • Pockets and full pages
  • 2019 Calendar from The Red Wren

Worst case scenario…. a calendar and a bunch of 2×2 photos
