I am a serious list maker.
I have a to buy lists, photo's to order list, to do list, to organize list- and I think it's getting out of hand.
Basically, my scrap room needs to clean to start, I need to order way more adhesive then I think I will need, and I need to order basically every picture I have ever taken. What is on your list?

- finish organizing the scraproom
- prepare groups of photos that I may want to use
- get lots of snacks
- clean the house the weekend before
- buy wine

I like the buy wine.
Make sure you have lots of adhesive. If you have a family, cook stuff they can heat up or have the pizza delivery number handy.

I already made a lasagna froze it, I plan on having lots of sandwich stuff on hand for DH and I too have clean the house the weekend before. My first ACOT crop was a disaster, I had 2 month old twins I ran out of glue dots and tape runner despite buying what I thought was more than enough....

No list just yet, making one is on my "to do" list. lol
My dh laughs at me when I make a list because I always forget and leave it at home. I have my chocolate got that today and I am pretty sure I have enough adhesive but might pick up a couple more just in case. I got dh to go out with the guys on saturday evening and sunday he has to work. I am ready!!!!!!!!!:-D
I can't get my food until the day of or the day before the crop as I have no willpower and it would be gone before the crop got here!
I was planning on attending every minute; but my lovely DS who was supposed to be tucked safely away at college has decided to do a bike race on Saturday and I have never missed a sporting event yet, so how could I now? Anyway, hopefully it won't last all day and I'll just miss part of the morning and afternoon. Luckily I am a night owl, so I'll be able to attend the rest.

1. Get adhesive (done)
2. Get tons of photos ready (almost done)
3. Get drinks and snacks
4. Print out Crop schedule
I was supposed to be here for all of it (but a couple hours on Friday), but now I am going to miss out on a big chunk of Sat as well. I am part of a committee for the upcoming Disabled Veteran's Wheelchair Games (coming to Denver July 2010) and we have a meeting on Sat to put together goody bags for our golf tournament fundraiser, which is the following Monday. So don't have too much fun without me!

I hope and pray i have my new workbox, and everything organized and ready to go by then, but it will be pushing it. I havn't done a crop on here in a couple years so it will be fun and i'm looking forward to it.

Em, you are not the only one with a change of plans. I have been planning this for months, and now my son informs me he is entering his first bike race. How could I miss that? So, I'll be around as much as possible, but do have to spend part of my day watching my son race-wish I had a wireless laptop!

I need to get cracking on my list. I have to order pictures and buy supplies and food. lol I have not even started.
Since I have never attended a crop before, I had no idea what to do. After reading all the messages, I'm beginning to see that I'm not ready at all! Now I'm getting nervous.
