March is ending, and it’s a great time to do a monthly review and/or get caught up on your memories from this past month.

Roundups. Recaps. Reviews. You can call them whatever you like, but the general idea is the same. Just take some time to write down what has happened recently, add some pictures, and call it good! That’s what I do at the end of each month, and I plan to keep going strong with this practice as long as possible.

March has been quite a month for me, so I haven’t been able to get around to my February roundup until now. That’s okay; it’s never too late to work on recapping memories. Sure, it’s easier when they are fresh in your mind, but my roundup prompts help me keep track of my daily life. I make good use of my calendar to jot down the things that happen each day.

Chances are, if you are reading this blog, you know of at least one of these four women. They were all extremely influential in the field of scrapbooking as it rose to popularity in the 1990s and 2000s. They each played a big role in bringing personal documentation to the forefront of creativity and memory-keeping endeavors.

We have an extra day this month because of Leap Year, but I wanted to post the roundup prompts now to help us all think about how we want to wrap up this month.

I don’t know about you, but I started craving some chocolate once I realized Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! Thankfully, chocolate is a treat that still works for me. Being gluten-free can be tough on holidays! I’m definitely going to treat myself to chocolate-covered goodness, though!

I started working on my January Roundup and ended up designing a new template set! I envisioned a framework that would allow me to easily change heading titles, as I don’t always report on the same categories each month. I’m excited about how this turned out! Not only can you swap the wording, but you can even change the color of each heading background. There’s plenty of room for written details and spaces for accompanying pocket cards and photos.

After choosing my word for 2024 (enjoy), I decided that creating a vision board would be a great way to get started on the new year. My daughter Riley has taught me the importance of this practice, and she has been really great about leading the way for me to get motivated.

Well, hello there. It's been a while. The longer I wait, the harder it gets to start this whole thing again. But I've been blogging since 2005, and I still love it. So I'm still here, and I'm glad you are too! Are you ready for a new year? I know I am.
