i am really wanting to scrapbook today, and i don't have any pictures to use. now before you take that to mean that i am all caught up, because i am not, nor will i ever be, and therefore i don't worry about it....
my trouble is i don't have any pictures accessible to start scrapbooking with.
i must get myself together. this last week i have been trying to organize anything "scrapbook" related in my office.
(i am hoping soon to sort out all the memorabilia that i have piled in some lame shelf built into my desk that really doesn't have a good purpose for being there. i need to find a better function for it that holding ticket stubs, christmas cards, cards and certificates.)
i have been putting pictures that have been printed (from the thousands held hostage on my computer due to the fact that i'm all about digital....) into photo albums 12 x 12 albums using page protectors with opening for individual pictures, to at least have a place to look at them. most are xander in his first year.
so yes, i do have something to scrapbook. a beautiful little boy who will be four in two months.
but as i sit here and realize that my daughter's first birthday is only a week away and i have only done ONE page of her i am feeling completely overwhelmed, embarrassed, distraught, and a myriad of other emotions....
one being the intense desire to create something. anything!
but alas, it is after midnight, i have to work in the morning and that requires some sleep.
so, my goal for this week is to print some recent pictures of my two children and find a layout that inspires me and use it to accomplish a new layout!
as for all the other pictures that are waiting to be printed, i will print as many as i can a week (silly budget) and keep putting them in my "photo" albums, they will inspire me to create something for myself!
