Project Life, Week Eight

Last night I was able to stay up past my bedtime and finish week eight. That feels really good.

The challenge set by my husband was only to use 6 pages. I also decided to not use the computer for any journaling & to not pull my tweets or facebook posts from the week. I was able to complete in a couple of hours instead of the week it usually sits on my table.

It was also key that I was able to keep my eyes open more than 30 minutes after the boys went down.

This was a busy week for us with almost something every day after school & these calendar journal cards were perfect!

I'm not crazy in love with this week but it is done & that counts for alot!

Jeannette asked if I print at home or somewhere else. I have a HP Photosmart Pro B8350 at home and when I first started Project Life I printed exclusively at home. I would only print the pictures that I knew I was going to use. After one week where I fought with the printer to get to color right on a black & white I started printing at Walgreens. I do print all my iPhone pictures at home.

Since I've been behind I've been printing a few weeks at a time. From my last batch printing last weekend I have the pictures from week nine left. What I love about Walgreens is that they are ready in an hour. So, today I will send to print weeks ten & eleven and then on my way home from the grocery pick them up.

When I print my batches I tend to print more than what will be included in the week. I've been putting the leftover pictures in a bin and will file them away in my 2011 Q1 Storage Binder so they are available to scrapbook later.
