The truth is, I'm getting more than a little anxious about the number of photos that are piliing up and my lack of both organization and time to devote to this effort. I worked on 5 pages this weekend and did a couple of mini albums that I will give as gifts. I usually attend a couple of scrapbooking weekends a year, and at the rate of 5-10 pages per getaway, I am falling behind at an alarming rate. It never fails that every time I return from a weekend away, I have grand intentions of devoting more time to scrapbooking and making it a real habit, scheduling a specific amount of time to it each week. But, alas, I always find myself at the next weekend crop realizing that I haven't touched my stash since the previous weekend away.
My husband, in an effort to help with my frustration, even set up a cropping area for me, so I would have an inviting little space where I could work to my heart's content. But the space available in our house is a sitting room in the bedroom. So, although it is a great space that I know I am lucky to have, I end up feeling isolated up there, so I tend to avoid it. Hubby's new plan is to move some furniture around and create a space in the living area of the house, so I can be a part of the evening's activities while I crop. This is going to take some thought and reconfiguration of a rather small space. At any rate, in some way, shape or form, I'm going to have to figure out how to step up my efforts.
As always though, I had a great time at the crop. I love this time to reconnect with my friends, scraplift some new ideas, get a massage, have no responsibilites for a couple of days, really relax and let my hair down....hmmm...wait.... did I say I have a productivity issue....??
