I started this in 2015 and I'm still keeping up with it. Maybe it will work for you.

Could you share the template please?
Oliver Rackham (the woodland history bloke in the UK) used small notebooks.
Kept one in his pocket. Went everywhere with them.

I have started and stopped journaling times over the years. When I initially got a smart phone, i started taking photos of mundane everyday things. I’ve now been consistently doing this for many years.
It just takes a few seconds to take out the phone and snap a few photos. I have many short videos and photos of my kids over the years doing them mundane that I treasure with my life.
When it comes to doing something new/memorable, I'd be fine with aspiring for just one thing per month (with the assumption that sometimes/often I'd end up with more than that).
I think the way to make things like this work is to start with a low-ambition target, and then scale up until just before the point where it starts to feel difficult to keep it going. I'm not sure I could keep up a cadence of doing one memorable thing per week. Once a month seems doable, though. But if I were really uncertain, maybe I'd first target once per two months, and then see how much more frequently I could do memorable things before it started feeling like a difficult burden.
