Whew! I'm exhausted and it's not because I've been up late scrapping either. Nope, it's from spring cleaning. John's on vacation this week, we're cleaning out the house and we're having a yard sale on Saturday.
It's amazing how quickly stuff accumulates. I feel like junk just multiples in my house like bunny rabbits. We live in a house with only 900 sq feet of living space. I think 750 feet of it is filled with non-essential stuff. I was daydreaming yesterday that it would be nice to get a fire hose and just wash everything out and start over fresh with so much less.
After this week I have to concentrate on organizing what I want to bring with me to my Maine scrapbooking weekend retreat. I can't wait! Three whole days of non-stop scrapping with my sister. I haven't been to a weekend crop in over a year. Things have been so crazy and hectic here that I really need it.
I've been trying to figure out what I want to work on. My Europe album WILL be done by then. (Positive thinking and fingers crossed.) I really would like to get my album from last summer's 101 Summer Things to Do done. I wanted to make it a quick album so I made it in an album that has all 4x6 photo pockets. All I had to do was print the photos, organize them, slide them into the pockets, journal, and add some embellishments. I had the photos printed, organized and into the album by last October but just need the time to do the journaling. I have 101 different things to talk about so every page is going to have journaling. I love to journal so that's not the problem. The problem is I just need some uninterrupted time to get it done. If I can get Printshop downloaded onto my laptop I'm going to plan on bringing this and my printer so I can get it done. I only have two months left before 2012's list of 101 Summer Things to Do and I can't still be working on last year's or else my stories will get all mushed together.
