blemon I'm at much the same stage. I've done through to mid September, including the layouts that I put in between my project life pages. I've never been this up to date so pretty happy with it! I am doing December Daily but the thought of not having December in my yearly album bothers me so I'll try to keep up a basic version with the more everyday things in there and more Christmassy stuff in my DD. I look at them separately so don't mind a few double ups. Here's hoping I can stay up to date for most of the rest of the year.

2025 will be weekly 12x12 for me. It’ll be a momentous year, with my daughter graduating high school, and then beginning college (locally, she will still live at home). Lots of activities already on the calendar. The space will be needed!. I’m already looking forward to it. My daughter graduates in 2026 so I will be watching what you do, for sure! I'm definitely doing a Senior Year album for her. I'm looking forward to that. That's more my style of scrapbooking. I know I will enjoy looking back at Project Life but I haven't always enjoyed this process. |

I’m caught up to last week. I just have two pockets to print pictures from the weekend and journal and then it’s done. PL is my main project and I love it so it easy for me to keep up and scrap in real time During the week and then finish anything the next week.
On the other hand, my 2023 DD is not done. I have some things for every page but only a couple pages are completely finished. Many just need journaling. But there’s plenty of work left in it. I really wanted to finish it by Dec but it’s not looking good (I usually spend my time on PL instead).

Managed to finally take an opportunity to play in my scrapbook area and got all of September completed. I'm hoping to get all of October done today. My challenge is working around 4x6 vertical photos. I just don't have the right page protectors and need to order some. My very favorite were the design G from BH that had 2 vertical, 2 horizontal 4x6 and then 2 3x4 spaces. I can't find anything like that anymore and it bums me out!

needtime2scrap - Do you have the fuse tool from WRMK? Maybe you can make your own page protectors if you have one of those. I've done that in the past and it worked well, although it took a little more time. Also, I've seen people use just a full 12x12 page protector and made the PL layout on a piece of cardstock. I'll look and see if I can find an example.

So I am done for now.
I finished up to Oct. 31.
I plan to go back and do one layout for November sometime in January.
I have a folder for the photos on my phone. Instead of just throwing everything in like I would do for a weekly spread, I am being selective from the start.
If there's a photo that needs me to remember what the heck it is, I'll add a note to it.
I took photos yesterday but accidentally photographed the wrong side of one of the pages so I have to go back and do that again. Ha!
I had a lot of fun playing with my October supplies.
Will definitely go back to an October daily (of some sort) next year.

I actually don't have a fuse tool and not sure i want to put that much effort in for page protectors. I know that sb.com has some similar bit they have that weird long strip pocket at the binder seam and I'm not wild about that. I've got my last 2 weeks of October photos printed and I just have to complete the journalling. I didn't have a lot going on photo wise so im putting both weeks together in on double spread.
