Keeping Up with Our Memories

How do you keep track of all of the things you do on a daily basis? Please share below. 
The world has us all super busy right! Many of us can’t remember what we ate for dinner last night let alone what we watched or ready last week. I am trying to work on that for myself. One of my big goals for 2023 is to create my own process for memory keeping the day to day activities, specifically what I’m watching, eating, reading, doing, etc (or as I like to call W.E.R.D.).  That’s why I created a blog called “Currently Scrapbooking” as a way to keep track of these things. I’m hoping it will help to hold me accountable to not only myself but to my audience as well as allow me to share some of the things that you might also want to try like the books I’m reading, the podcasts I’m listening to, and more.  Check out my blog here:

Write It Down Wednesday

WriteItDownWednesday As we plan our lives, what are you taking the time to write down today? Are you feverishly sending emails, are you old school and writing letters or cards to people, are you updating your planner or journal, or are you utilizing your creative side and writing a book or poetry, are you creating or checking off a to do list, or are you writing down that recipe you saw in a magazine? Whatever you are writing, documenting things in writing, helps us remember them. Please share. #HappyWriting #coworkandcreate #blackgirlhappyplanner #planning #writing

daily writing planner

Recently, I made the commitment to focus on my writing, especially for the rest of 2020. Since this pandemic has been so stressful on us, I figured it wouldn’t hurt to do something I’ve been waiting to do for a long time. I found this Daily Writing Planner on Etsy.com

Creating A Photo Legacy

I’m excited. I recently signed up for a “5 day photo legacy challenge”, a workshop being taught by expert librarian and genealogist Taneya Koonce. The first assignment was to create goals for your digital photo organization.

I’m attaching a photo of my goal setting worksheet along with a legible list of the goals here:

WHO? Myself, My older relatives, My cousins, and any future family members
WHAT? Photos will be organized finally and easy to access
WHERE? Shutterfly, Photo Albums, Storage containers, smartphone, scrapbooks
WHEN? Right now, I schedule Sundays as the day set aside to work on photos
WHY? Because I don’t want to keep putting this off before it’s too late, the elders of the family are getting older, 2020 has allotted me with lots of time on my hands so there’s no excuse, and before I start forgetting info
