Week in the Life 2011: Days Two through Five

Well, I started out the week well with posts and then completely disappeared.  Here are a few of the Instagram shots I'll use for one side of each day's section -- you can see what a down-to-earth week we're having, but of course that's part of the point of this project!

Fixing waffles for my daughter's breakfast

Arts and crafts at the library every Tuesday in the summer

Our betta fish, Swimmy

Little girly's ice cream sundae

Pretty scrapbooking embellishments in my $2 garage sale find -- love it

The children's play place doesn't allow shoes, hence the sock feet.

In a bit of a slump

I've been a bit tired here at the beginning of this week and haven't created anything since the weekend.  I was on a bit of a roll, which I think was fueled by having some pre-chosen pictures and journaling ideas on a 3 x 5 card clipped together to just grab.  Now I'm in the mood to scrapbook things for which I don't have prints (last Thanksgiving, Easter, vacation).  Lesson learned: keep up with getting prints! 

I have accomplished something -- I've been working on editing our vacation pictures.  I still need to do some cropping and decision-making: some I will get printed as 4 x 6 and I will choose some special ones to print at 8 x 8.  I got the idea from something I saw on Cathy Zielske's blog.  The album I chose is 8 x 8 and I'm going to have each right-facing page be an 8 x 8 picture.  I'm kind of excited about this.
