Not sure if my job search activity counts

The certification asks how many work-search activities I did and I do not know what qualifies. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. My state says to keep records for a year. What do you record?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 5 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I was asked for my log once, after six months. Having it in a spreadsheet made it painless.
