I’d seen the idea in a variety of places (oh, thank you, pinterest) and decided that this year was the year to give it a go.

Each day. One card. A sentence or two about the day. Same cards year after year. Simple. Easy.

I already do so much documenting. Here on the blog. Through the copious quantity of photos that I take. But something about this line-a-day perpetual journal is different. Something about it feels so much more real and concrete. More personal.

While this year is the least rewarding, I imagine that next year and in the years that follow adding to the journal will be such a treat. Getting a chance to not only document a short line about the day, but also having the chance, at a quick glance, to see what I had been doing in years past.

Right now it is just me and a small stack of index cards. I’d like to pretty it up soon, like they showed over on design sponge:

And, actually, I’d really like to get Ewan in on the daily journal action. I’m just not quite sure how to include him yet… Any ideas?
