I had always wanted to document my day (or week)-in-a-life scrapbook style. I agree that it'd be great to look back years from now and see how my current day was. But the idea of starting it from the moment I wake up to the moment I sleep overwhelms me. It feels like a huge paper project so I never got to start it.
Last week, I thought of making a simpler version of it by having a running list of everyday activities & stuff photos that I wish to take instead. I thought of making a checklist because a checklist makes the project "bite size", by completing one item at a time.
Without further ado, here are the items on my list:
- a part of my morning routine
- my usual breakfast
- my stacked journals
- my favorite toiletries
- clothes, stuff or activity for child's school preps
- latest kiddie art
- a daily routine for baby
- baby items
- start of work rituals
- notes on the fridge
- preferred coffee blend
- child on her school's waiting area or child from school
- favorite snacks
- staples on the pantry/fridge
- book/s I'm reading
- open planner on desk
- our filled grocery cart
- a household chore
- our laundry pile
- clothes folded on our closet
- meal preps
- family weekend baking
- craft stash
- my cork board/vision board
- craft project with child
- family at the car
- my work desk
- a treat from a favorite shop
- go-to accessories
- favorite lounge wear
- favorite outfit
- room with toys on floor
- child's favorite meal
- family/child napping
- bedtime stories
- husband from work
- working on a cafe
- tea time with husband (or smoothies after gym time)
- a view from our window
- summer/hot weather stuff
- rain gear
- a nicely made bed
- a part of my night routine
How about you? If you wish to capture your daily life, what will be on the list?
