2014 Project Life : weeks 20 & 21.
I struggled with this week – the main event was my trip to NOLA with Barb, and this smaller format doesn't lend itself to big stories. So. What you see above is the bookends of the week – and then I added another page that included snippets of NOLA on both sides.
On the second "bookend" page, I added a small flip pocket with the tag from my Trader Joe's bag – yes, THAT'S how excited I was for that opening!
Week 21 took an abrupt turn when my Grandfather died. While I do have a handful of photos of family, I opted to simply add a picture, and the lyrics to "Peace in the Valley"…one of the songs that was played at his memorial. The program from the service is tucked behind that card.
I'm slowly, but surely, catching up on Project Life. I'll add June to this album, and then move to the next album. I've already decided that I'll switch back to the 12×12 albums for 2015. More room to tell stories, more room to include quotes/lyrics, and more room to include ephemera.

I think we could be friends… Not just because you love trader joes and wine and chocolate and friends and your grown up children and project life, just because you live one day at a time trying to suck every ounce of joy out of each day. .. Just sayin.

Love. Just love. Thanks for always keeping it honest and real. You know you continue to inspire me each and every (very hard right now) day… Love you and your family.
