Do you remember those spring break goals I posted a few weeks ago? I figured it was time to update you all on the progress since spring break is done and gone.
First and foremost, spring break was cold and wet. I took full advantage of the dreary days to enjoy a blanket, book and coffee and I read. I finished my book club book and started a new book! It was great.
Second, Joshua, Nate and I went through their clothes; cleaned out the winter stuff as well as summer stuff they had out grown; made a trip to Wal-Mart to purchase anything needed for the summer. There was also an order placed on Amazon for the stuff we couldn't get at Wal-Mart (like Tall size Small Shorts - there really is such a thing!)
Third, my main focus was photos/scrapbooking. I went through and figured out where I had stopped uploading and ordering photos for the years I still needed to finish and then proceeded to upload and then order everything through 2020. I put completed pages into scrapbooks. I also cleaned out my file drawers and pulled out the last of the memorabilia that needs to still go into albums. I also was able to scrapbook over two weekends! It's been since November so it was nice to get back into the groove once again. Finally, I got all of the photos off of my phone, out of the cloud, and off my camera into my computer. Then, I sorted them into folders by month/year. It doesn't seem like a big deal until I state that all of that photo organization, downloading, uploading, and then uploading to Snapfish to order took about 30 hours total. I still have to order a few months in 2021 and then January-March 2022 to be current but that is budgeted into May. At that point, I will have everything ordered and ready to be scrapbooked so I can then just (hopefully) keep up monthly with ordering photos. WHEW Now I can focus on scrapbooking the photos instead of ordering them all.
