I had a productive but somewhat lazy Saturday.  I ran 8 miles, enjoyed sweet potato fries and avocado burger at the Counter in Roseville, thought about next week’s rocket project, worked in the yard, made Vietnamese crepes for dinner, and finished my Week in the Life book.
Here’s a look at Monday, 04/19 : Opener page

Today is Furlough Friday and I am content sitting at home scrapping and snacking.
I started the cover page last night and finished it off this morning once I picked up the photos.

This is how I’m handling some of the artifacts :

I am very close to being done with my Week in the Life book.  I [...]

The school day ended early due to STAR testing so I spent the afternoon/evening putting together the rest of my book.  I cropped all of the photos, inserted them into the baseball card sheet protectors, and made the photo collages for all seven days.

In putting together the collages, I realized that I need to re-size [...]

Last night, I spent about an hour picking new pattern paper for my Week in the Life book.  I shopped at home and [...]

I finished uploading all of my photos to Costco this afternoon and picked them up this evening.  I spent $27.49 — not bad for a week’s worth of photos.  For each day, I printed 1 8×10, 14-16 3×4 , and 8-10 4×6 photos.  (Costco is currently having a 9 cent sale on 4×6 prints.  The [...]

It feels strange now that the week of hyper-photo documentation is over.  I woke up this morning thinking of grabbing my camera, but then realized that I’m done. Done with the actual documentation.  However, the journey isn’t over because I’ll be spending this week printing photos + putting the book together.  (By the way, I’m [...]

This is my 400th entry!!!!
7:22 am: Awake.  To run or not to run.  (Oh, what the heck!  Just get out of bed and go.)

8:02 am: Pleasantly surprised by the sidewalk art and messages at McKinley Park.
8:20 am: Happy running 5 and 1.  Slow and [...]

7:40 am: Awake.  Potty.  Check Words with Friends for updates.  Play words with MatisseNorton, Julievill, Finney and Jim.  Want to run but am hacking like crazy.  Shower.
8:25 am: Breakfast (waffles and coffee for Jim, bagel with cheese, blackberries and cranberry juice for me).  Read the paper.  There’s an interesting article about a man who received [...]
