The first half of 2020 and how to keep track of all this craziness
I realize that we are well into the second half of 2020 now, but I stumbled upon this resource last night and just had to share it! This is from CNN and it gives a really thorough overview of the first 6 months of the year with some great photos. It’s also fascinating (and sad) to watch the Coronavirus numbers change each month. This will definitely be something that I will use for a year-end recap and to add to monthly roundups.
If you are looking for other resources to help you keep track of what’s been happening in 2020, here are a few more:
Have you been doing anything to keep track of the events of this year? My Mom writes down a few headlines in her planner each night. I save social media links and news stories to my Momento App (see this post for more details). Here are a few screenshots from various days. In the app, I can click on each image to see the related story.
Also, because I’ve been doing monthly roundups all year and turning them into scrapbook layouts. I have a really great record of what my world has been like in the year 2020.
If you haven’t been doing roundups, it’s never too late to start! We are getting close to the end of August so start now by making some notes of what your life has been like this month. You are the historian for your life!
