Shimelle (of shimelle.com) has a class running this month called Learn Something New Every Day that I decided to sign up for. Evidently she runs it every September but this is the first time I've taken it.
I haven't decided yet what format my scrapbooking for it will take but I have been writing things down every day, except for last Friday and Saturday when for the life of me I know I learned something but can't remember what. Hopefully they will come back to me. Most of the stuff is pretty mundane and some of it is re-learning but there is the odd really good thing.
We're now almost at the end of the second week and I thought maybe I better post about how things are going with LSNED. So here's how the first week went.
The month started out with me learning how vitally important it is that I have breakfast. Now that doesn't sound like a big thing but since I've recently been diagnosed as being pre-diabetic it is. I discovered this while driving home from the grocery store when all of a sudden I was having issues with my eyesight - not a good thing when you're driving. Luckily nothing happened and I got home safe & sound.
Day 3 found me finally learning what a hashtag was. I kept hearing the term and finally decided to find out what it was. I also found out, klutz that I am, that I need to wear shoes in my scrapping room after painfully stubbing toes on both feet on the feet of my chair. DUH!
Day 4 had me relearning that I need to come up with a system to know just exactly what is in the spare fridge after discovering strawberries in there that one of us had put there. By the time I found them they were fit for the compost bin. Lesson learned!
Day 5 had me discovering that I really need to keep up with class prompts and handouts after discovering purely accidentally that I'd missed out on some digital templates in last year's Library of Memories class I took. They're no longer available so I now know to at least read the prompts everyday that they come out so that I don't miss out on anything else.
On day 6 I learned that until the car dealership service department finally figures out what is wrong with the Mustang and the vibration at highway speed that I better not make plans for the day until the last minute as they are tending to get changed so that I can take it in yet again.
Day 7 was one of the super mundane things - I learned of a quicker way of getting to the car dealership. Pretty lame but I didn't know of it before. :)
After writing this I came up with an idea of how I wanted to do my scrapbooking for it and immediately set to work - oh oh - where is my tool box? The last time I saw it was when the kiddos were coming to visit and I put it away someplace safe so that they couldn't get hurt if they came across it. Now to just remember where the someplace safe is. :)
