Default Anybody who did Ali's Week in the Life Project?
....I did and Im so proud of myself I actually FINISHED it one week after I took the project I am a HUUUUGE procastinator so completing a book is one big accomplishment for me Im especially proud of this one too!

And more, I even had enough pages to make a Shutterfly Book.
Here is my blog post about it.

Wow Aggie! This looks amazing! I want to try this now but it kinda looks overwhelming! I have bookmarked it though because I would really love to do it. Your book looks fantastic!

Holy moly- you did an incredible job with this project!! I just knew I wouldn't be able to keep up with it right now, but I definitely want to try it. I keep thinking I can just make my own date stamps instead of purchasing them, LOL. But they'd never look as good! Your book is amazing- congrats on finishing such a big project!

This turned out so great! A great inspiration for me...I've always wanted to document my everyday schedule, but each day is so different that I wasn't sure how to go about doing it. Super job!!

Aggie, that is FABULOUS!! What an inspiration! I might have to do that... after next week... I have exams and I think it'd be bad for my grades. And then I had to go add all those Ali goodies to my Kaboodle.... lol

I knew last week wouldn't work for me to document. But I'm REALLY tempted to start tomorrow with this project. Whether I do it this week, or in the future, I DEFINITELY want to do this project. I LOVE documenting little, every day things like that.

Aggie you did SUCH a fantastic job with this!!! You should be SO proud!!!

Your book looks great!!! Good on you for doing it - I always have great plans but quite often they don't happen! (Life gets in the way!) This project looks like fun - a great way to capture the everyday detail in our lives - I'll have to check it out!! .... Love those days of the week on each page - did you make them or purchase them?

Really great- thanks for asking! Still haven't gained a pound, but definitely have that bump that's "here today, gone tomorrow" in this stage. LOL It just needs to stick around already!

Thanks for all the nice compliments! It really IS a huge project quite overwhelming at first but I found that it is easier to assemble if you really took the assignment daily - meaning, took pictures, downloaded them from your camera, weed out the ones you don't like AND most of all, if you really write/document what happened at the end of the day.

I also made sure I finished it up as soon as the week was over, LOL. I know that I will never finish it once I started it late.

Now I want more books LOL
