I have a piece of paper that I slide into the front of my book with reminders on which days need journaling- it helps me feel like its ok to move on when I am not in the mood to journal. Then when I have free time I can quickly come back and add some words.
My daughter once told me that “Comparison is the thief of joy” and it gave me so much clarity. It was what I needed to hear that day and I have never looked back ( or around at others) since!
The lack of notes and/or photos can sometimes mean you are fully living in the moment and soaking up memories. (but I also want evidence🤣) Love all your design ideas and thank you so much for sharing them!💚
And you are so welcome. Isn't it funny how we do indeed need permission sometimes? Find that to be true a lot. Thanks for being here. Thank you for watching!
As usual, I’m never disappointed by your videos. YOU inspire me with your creativity and encouraging words. I love the intentionality of Sunday being a day of rest. I believe that God is really speaking to me about the importance of resting as well. Don’t feel bad for doing what you do. God bless you , Jamie.
Well then, I just have to say, if He is speaking, ya have to listen. It's been a process for me. I learn something every week about what this day should look like. Thank you so much for your encouraging words, Phyllis! I hope you can take the time to process and think about and establish. God bless your efforts.
I can tell your May was pretty crazy…some months are like that and that’s ok! I loved the tag with ‘be patient with yourself’! A perfect message for me right now! Loved the peeled paint page! As always, thanks for your encouraging and HONEST words! We’re all in this together my friend! Remember to BREATHE! The picture of you sitting in the sun Sunday a.m. was beautiful! Speaks volumes as to what is most important.❤
Jamie, I absolutely LOVE your videos, especially STB! You have great ideas and I love your encouragement! That “yikes, boom, whoa bye-bye hooray” STB May 2022! I grabbed that kit when they were on sale for $10-$15.
OH I knew somebody way more organized that I would know where that set came from. Thank you! Why the need to know its origination is beyond me. 🤷♀ But it does make one feel better. LOL!!! It's a great stamp set! Thank you for your kind words. Here's to lots of stopping the blur. 🥂
Sounds like you are totally on it. Love hearing progress reports Yay for you. Hope these videos provide some inspiration to keep adding to those stories. Have a great day!
I had tried Collage Medium which usually works like a charm and does not show when it's dry. Maybe all the rain has turned this place way too humid and now I don't know how to use adhesives . 🤣 All things are possible. Thank you for the suggestion.
Hi Jamie! I recently subscribed to Heidi's Stop the Blur Class and Kit. I currently do a memory planner, but am so intrigued by Heidi's approach that I wanted to try it out. I like to keep up to date on my planner (I work on them weekly, so I'm usually pretty current). I noticed that the new products are released on the 15th of the month. I'm not sure how to phrase this question, so please let me know if it doesn't make sense...do you use the current month product on the previous month? (Example: You would use June's product to document May, July's product to document June, etc). If I wait to document July using July's product then I'm instantly 3 weeks behind by the time the July product hits my doorstep. I loved getting a peek into your memory planner. I'm actually binge watching your videos right now, soaking in all the inspiration!! :)
Ah. That's a great question. And my answer might be a bit of a dilemma for you...because you sound like you are on it! Sounds like you are keeping up with the documenting weekly, so that would create a bit of a delay if you want to use that month's kit on your pages. My answer is that I use June kit for the most part on June's pages, that's because I wait a few weeks before I begin June's pages. BUT...that being said, I do not stay exclusive to a monthly kit. I use other parts and pieces of older kits. If I were to keep up weekly (which would be a wonderful thing), then I would use e.g. June's kit on July pages. But I'm not doing that. Not sure this is helpful, since it takes 3 weeks for you to get your kit. Are you outside the U.S.? Thanks for the question. Glad you are here.
@@JamiePate thanks for the reply, Jamie! I am in the US, but I’m assuming I’ll get the product the 3rd week of the month since the product releases on the 15 & the order doesn’t process until the 18th. I’ll play it by ear & see how it all goes! I am SUPER excited to give this a try!

That's a fantastic tip! Love it. Thanks for sharing. Plus a great place to brainstorm what you might want on those pages too. Thank you!

Wow! Wise daughter. Love this thought so much. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful one.

You are not wrong. That is a true statement. And has happened a lot too. And...it's OK. Thank you for your words. Have a good one.
THANK YOU for permission to do some things simply and not re-inventing the wheel on every page. And as always, thank you for the Seinfeld bass!

Thank you, Robin. You said it all so very well. Thank you for YOUR encouragement. One day at a time, that's all we got. Have a good one!

So beautiful and creative!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your words. Have a good day!
I’ve finished January and 3 weeks of Feb. I’ve finished April and one spreed in May. Um loving the process
Sounds like you are totally on it. Love hearing progress reports Yay for you. Hope these videos provide some inspiration to keep adding to those stories. Have a great day!
Try glossy accents for your velum butterflies. Beautiful spreads!!

I love seeing your memory keeping journals! So much good stuff! ❤
Thank you very much, Heidi. How long have you been a memory keeper?
Wonderful pages Jamie! Thanks for sharing 😊
You are so kind to watch, Martha. Thank you.
Oh loved it all Jamie!!
Hope you found some take-aways and some do-ables. Have a great one.
Great ideas!
Thank you so much! Hope you can put some to good use.
