Outings: Kristianopel.

Project Life: 2015 title page.



I've made so much progress with my 2015 Project Life pages these past weeks (hence my absence online). At this rate I will be caught up before the end of the year, which would be great because then I can order a photo book already in January. I'm really looking forward to seeing the pages in print. Since the first pages I made included photos from this summer I've been working my way backwards (and forwards) and I finished the title page only yesterday so I thought I'd start by sharing that. I intend to share some more pages later on, when I've filled in the gaps so I can share them in chronologial order.


Project Life is a memory keeping system created by Becky Higgins. You can learn more about it here.

Trips in 2015: Scandinavia Part 4/4.

Life lately: September 2015.



Watching | I usually only mention the things I actually enjoyed watching, but this month I must include Mad Max: Fury Road which was one of the worst films I've ever seen. Really don't get the hype at all. Per felt so guilty afterwards for making me watch it. As for a really good film, I watched Little Boy which was one of the sweetest films I've seen in a very long time. It might just have made me cry, on more than one occasion. Finally, we went to see the hilarious Vacation at the cinema. On TV my guilty pleasure show Lyxfällan came back and has me gasping in horror at people's stupidity every week despite how predictable it has turned. Also, I've been watching Vem tror du att du är? and feeling jealous that I never found anything as exciting when researching my family tree. It seems like no matter who's on the show they're always related to royalty or other famous people, or at least manage to dig up some juicy crime story.

Listening to | My Disney playlist which I seem unable to grow tired of.

Consuming | Hotel breakfasts galore what with spending ten nights at six different hotels in September/early October + lots of delicious Croatian food, including Ćevapčići and various seafood... And plenty of icecream of course. Oh and my beloved satsumas are in season again! I even bought some straight from a farmer in Croatia.

Reading | Since I was on vacation I had time to finish two books - Little Bee by Chris Cleave and What Milo Saw by Virginia Macgregor. I enjoyed both but I don't think they will stick with me in the long run because I didn't really love any of the characters... Lately I've taken to visiting the library on a regular basis and it's worked wonders for my reading. So simple really... When I buy books I end up not really enjoying I force myself to get through them because it seems wasteful to buy new ones and let the unread ones pile up, and thus I lose interest in reading. With library books there's no such guilt; I can just return the books and pick some fresh ones.

Visiting | Just the parents from what I can remember but I might be missing someone because September was such a long and busy month.

Enjoying | Above all, the sunshine, blue skies and beauty of Croatia (+ Montenegro where we went on a day trip). This vacation was everything I dreamed of & more. Croatia will always hold a special place in my heart and I hope to go back there many times in the future.

Making | Digital Project Life pages for my 2015 photobook.

Looking forward to | Scrapbooking my memories from Croatia. But first I will share the photos on here; it's my rule that I can't scrapbook any photos that I haven't blogged.
