If you are on Facebook, you’ve probably seen someone post something like the entry I’m going to include here. People are realizing that they should document these unusual times and then when they are reminded about them on future anniversaries of this date, they will be able to feel grateful for where they are at. Sound at all like a roundup? I’ve been a fan of this idea since 2006! I’m happy to see the emphasis on recording these memories and even finding some gratitude for the challenges we are facing.

I’m ready to share my March 2020 roundup page and show you how I used the new supplies I posted about this morning.

More than ever before, I’m grateful for my routine of rounding up the month. Although I have to admit that this one is going to be a doozy! I’m going to use the resources I posted about yesterday to help me recap the news.

I usually love the month of March because it’s my birthday and wedding anniversary month as well as the start of spring. This year March brought a lot of terrible news as well. Nothing like a worldwide pandemic to scare us all!

We had an extra day of February thanks to Leap Year so I almost forgot to post the roundup prompt! You think I would have been extra prepared with an additional day on the calendar. February has been a good month in our family as we’ve been settling into our new home, but it’s also been a long and tiring month as well. Just like any other month, it’s been filled with good and not-so-good. That’s life and that’s why I love doing roundups to keep track of all of these details.

Do yourself a favor and start (or continue!) to do a monthly roundup this year. You will be so happy with the end result!

I started doing monthly roundups in January of 2006 and I’ve been going strong ever since! This tool is easy to use and is the most useful way to keep track of everyday life. Think about all that has happened in the last month. Do you really think you will be able to remember it all? I always kid myself by thinking that I can remember such details, but it just isn’t possible. I’m always amazed when I read back through my past roundups to realize how many tidbits would have been forgotten if I hadn’t written them down.

Do yourself a favor and start (or continue!) to do a monthly roundup this year. You will be so happy with the end result!

Can you believe we are almost done with 2019? Crazy! Roundup time is a great way to reflect back on the memories of the holidays and the entire month. I also love looking over all of the roundups for the year to do a full recap for our scrapbooks. This is when regular documenting really pays off!

If you’ve been following my Instagram account, you will know that I went to Belgium last week and came back with a bad bout of bronchitis. That means I’m behind on everything - including own personal roundup of the month’s events. I didn’t even remember to post the prompt! That is the first time I’ve skipped that since I started this little routine in January of 2006! I hope the faithful roundup followers went ahead without me.

Before you get caught up in Halloween celebrations tomorrow, take a few minutes and start your memory roundup for the month. Just copy and paste my simple questions and you will thank yourself later! This is such a great way to keep track of your life. I refer back to my own roundups all the time!

Well September… it’s time to say goodbye! This is the last day of the month and that means it’s a great time to answer a few quick questions and gather your memories. I love Roundup time!
