Thats why I havent even attempted them. I couldnt even remember to take the pictures everyday- there is no way I could keep up with the weekly LO's.

I journal everyday, but don't take a picture everyday and my weekly LO's are usually composed of whatever was involved that week...sometimes it is 15 pictures, sometimes 6-7.....I am over posting them and I thinnk that is what was discouraging me, I just finished like 6 of them in about an hour cause all I had to do was embellish....

Yeah, while I admire all you ladies who take on this commitment, I knew I could not meet it personally. Angie, I say keep plugging away at it. In the end you will be glad you did. Good luck Sweetie!

if you have the photos and journaling I'd complete them. I think you'll regret not having it down the road

Yes, Angie - don't give up!!! I haven't even started scrapping this year's project life.... (when I get the never up to start - I see someone's pages and I'm like, mine just can't compare to all the others... I'm not crazy about the project life format, but still going to try to give it a go) and I'm still way behind on P365 for 2011 AND 2010... so starting this month, every weekend I try to do at least a few weeks of 2011 because I know that slice of everyday life is what is going to be so neat to look back on in a number of years.

You can do it, Angie!! I know you can!!

Don't give up! I think having the pictures and journaling all there is the easiest part. If nothing else, simplify your embellishments and just go for it!

I spent all yesterday afternoon catching up on 6 weeks worth of layouts. During my 3 week gallbladder ordeal I didn't take a photo every day..but I managed to patch in most of the holes with phone pics and then some days on my layouts I just left a black image..believe me those days didn't deserve more than a black image lol. I'm glad I spent the time catching up though b/c my p365 books are so special to me.

Here's my page from the week I was in the hospital...

lol i find myself scrapping project life like i scrap everything, completely out of order and when inspiration hits....i'm ok with it for now...but I'm hoping to be so much more organized about it if I take on the project again next year (which I probably will).

Angie that's awesome that you're getting caught up!

I am way behind too, but LOVE what I have done so far. I do journal and take pics still, so will plug away at it when I can. Life is so busy, but I want to remember why, so... I will DO IT! (eventually!)

Stick with it Angie! I have loved seeing your pages. Even if you just place your journalling on the page, and pop the photos in there, then leave the rearranging and embellishing for when you have time. At least the photos and text are ready. (Says me who isn't doing P365 this year )

this is totally what I do and it makes it so much easier to just go back and embellish!!! It takes me the longest to decide WHICH pics I want to use on my LO, so if I have that already done, then it is so easy for me to go back and just embellish off to do some more....come on the rest of you gals, get to it...find a GREAT template (I used Traci's 10,800 mins templates and a few different packs of her slip ins) and that narrowed my choices down to how many pics I used....so much easier than last year Next year I think I am just going to do journlaing and photos and simple wordart...super simple and easy!

I find I do best when I have a weekly time set aside to work on it. For me, that's Sunday mornings because my week wraps up on Saturday. So every sunday, I sti down and plug away and finish that week's layout, and work on stuff from pervious weeks if needed. Once i get in the groove, I can get more done too, and I find it easier to catch up.

Even though you might have quite a few weeks to do, if you keep it simple, you can get a lot done in a short time. Don't worry about it being photography ready, don't worry about it being gallery ready. Just go for something fun and that makes you happy. And then, like others have suggested, later you can go back and decorate it up all pretty. You may just get caught up and then never have time to go back *or you might* but you will be so happy to have those pages. Then you can make your pages going forward either in the simple style or embellish them as you would like! Definitely don't give up.

I got behind when we went to Indonesia for 2 weeks, came home for 2 weeks and then moved to the Philippines. This month I decided to just focus on being current, so I have weeks 1-24 finished and weeks 33-37 done. Fortunately I have the photos picked out and the weekly reviews written out; I just need to put it all together.

I'm so glad you decided to stick with it, Angie. I love your pages!
