I've just started my first project 365 this year and would love to chat with others doing it for support and ideas.

My goal is to have it as a chronological insite into our life and a historical document for the generations to come. I used to enjoy scrap booking but don't have the time.

A few concerns I have atm:

Brilliant day yesterday with 3 special photos I would love to include that show important steps in our families life. Do you include all 3 and just put in an extra page occasionally? (Using Bec's project Life).

I live a pretty routine life with fulltime work and kids sports. What do you do to stop it becoming a chore/boring.

How often do you print off the photos. Is your journalling enough for you to remember which photo for which day?

The album is designed for landscape style shots. Have you found a way to still include portrait shots?

I have chosen to already put the inserts in to get some colour co-ordination while I have time. I know once I return to work again, I'll have limited time.

just checking to be sure you know before you label everything but its a 366 this year

nope - one a day.... or if i HAVE to i'll edit several pics into one colagey thing and print it as one
I live a pretty routine life with fulltime work and kids sports. What do you do to stop it becoming a chore/boring.find osme kind of promt list ( google there are lots) or some kinds of weekly theme

How often do you print off the photos. Is your journalling enough for you to remember which photo for which day? if you do it once a week it only takes about 30 mins all up if your sticking to a pre set system/ pattern of LO- that way you remember what just happened and you dont need a big batch of time

The album is designed for landscape style shots. Have you found a way to still include portrait shots? collage would work for you here.... the shot showing the "thing" and a details shot ... eg portrait of kid blowing candles out with details of cakes or streamers in the rest of the landscape area

good luck
eta pic... here's an eg list that can help you with ideas

I am also using BH project life doing 365. I choose one pic per day and I keep aside a bunch of others I love and will do an end of moth re cap with the photos I really love as an extra insert. I purchased 5 other page layouts including portrait and landscape styles so I have options.
Good luck with your I am loving mine.
