WEEK ONE This week I discovered air fryer bacon! Not only does the bacon come out just as deliciously as pan frying but the grease goes to the bottom so they’re less fat and it doesn’t smell up the whole house!! WEEK TWO I binged a Netflix show this week, Firefly Lane. It was really…

Monthly Memory Keeping-February Project Life
Let’s review the memories I preserved for the month of February. WEEK ONE February is Black History Month which means that many tv stations and organizations focus on the accomplishments of African-Americans. Because of the “racial reckoning” that started last year, many organizations who wouldn’t normally participate in Black History events are doing so this…

Monthly Memory Keeping-January 2021
Welcome to the first memory keeping month of this year! As I mentioned in a previous post, I am now doing my monthly memory keeping digitally. I am using Photoshop Elements 2020 (PES 2020)to create the layouts. PSE is a light weight version of the full photoshop experience which I don’t need. PSE has so…

Monthly Memory Keeping-December 2020
Today, I present the final page of my 2020 Project Life album. For this year, I used my HP sprocket printer and did a more traditional scrapbooking type layout. The photos that print out are 2×3 and adhesive backed. I enjoy this project and really enjoy looking back over the years. I started this project…

Memory Keeping-October Project Life

Memory Keeping-September Project Life
Once again, I’m running a bit behind of getting this month’s memory keeping up. I was not feeling creative and just kept procrastinating-printing the photos, laying them down, doing the journaling and taking the photos for the blog. In spite of the fact that sometimes I don’t feel like doing it, I do still enjoy…

Monthly Memory Keeping-August Project Life
For the first time in a long time, I’m posting this month’s memory keeping on time! It’s really no big deal other than to acknowledge that it is always my goal to have this up on the blog by mid-month. We continue to be in some form of quarantine-wearing masks in public, restaurants serving food…

Monthly Memory Keeping-July Project Life
Documenting daily life during this pandemic is rather challenging right now. However, it’s also really important to document this very surreal time in our lives. I sometimes think about what future generations will think when they look back and see these photos and read my words. Will they think that this wasn’t so bad or…

Down to the wire but still getting it done before the month is over! Here is my Project Life spread for June. I’ve added in a little something extra this month as I want to document the pandemic a bit more completely. WEEK ONE One of the highlights this week is that I received some…
