Day In The Life Sept 18, want to join me?

[LauraOD]

Even though I don't paper scrap anymore I am still a superfan of Ali Edwards. I just saw that her annual Day in the Life is this Wednesday. I am going to do it. Anyone want to join me?

She has a very comprehensive blog post here and examples of past projects, but really there are no rules. Just document what you are doing through the course of the day. Take a few photos or a ton, it's up to you. Then of course we can scrap our day.

I love these kind of time capsule projects. What do you think?

I love this! When I had my first daughter (in 2008) I was on a pregnancy/baby forum and we each took a day and did this with our babies. I think I might have to participate!

[LauraOD]

Yay, Trina! I knew this group would be up for it

[MrsPeel]

There is one of the CYOA September challenges that is A Day in the life...mine would be terribly boring right now, most of this year I have been bed bound, but will try get creative...

[AmieN1]

Im in! I work on Wednesdays but that just makes my day even more crazy! Would be fun to scrap for sure!

[Brendazzle]

There's a partial lunar eclipse on Wednesday too.

I'm considering doing our day although I'm not sure how exciting it will be (excluding the eclipse).

I love this idea but I can just feel that I'll forget about it already LOL

Yes, exactly what I was thinking!

I am making a Post-It note to join the other eleventy-billion Post-It notes so I might remember. You know, IF I read the notes. Because I really like this.

[LauraOD]

Cynthia aah! I haven't looked at CYOA that closely and I should bc the month is half over. If it's one of the challenges this will be perfect. Sorry you're not feeling well. I'm praying for you.

Amie and Brenda - yay!

Liv and Cheryl lol yesterday I was supposed to send my son to school in an Eagles shirt. It was on the family calendar, on my phone, sticky note on his dresser and still I forgot.

I stick notes on my front door, and on my car's dashboard ... that way I "usually" see them, lol!!!

The dashboard is a great idea!

I'll give it a try.

[LauraOD]

Krista, Lori, Steph excellent! I actually remembered as soon as I got up and am off to a good start.

[tjscraps]

And ... I forgot lol

I will have to pick another day!

[Brendazzle]

I kept it pretty manageable and only did a two-page spread. I also worked on it throughout the day, adding photos and journaling any time I had a chance.

Hahaha! Glad I wasn't the only one!

[stephc777]

I ended up doing it Thursday because I forgot Wednesday lol. Now to scrap it =)

[LauraOD]

Brenda you are fast! And I love your pages

I did remember on Wednesday, I kept a log and took 48 photos so this will be my weekend project. I’m glad it was Wednesday and not yesterday. Yesterday was a day from hell. A day to forget!

[kristalund]

Great spread, Brenda!

[Brendazzle]

Thank you both!

[LauraOD]

Brenda, your speedy scrapping inspired me to get this done right away

[Brendazzle]

I'm glad to repay the favor and inspire you back

[AmieN1]

Love everyone's! Here's mine- it was a busy day & I didn't get pics of everything, but plenty to make a layout! Thanks for the inspiration!
