I have shopped entirely tooooooooooo much..LOL  I had some free money and pre-ordered everything I was interested in...still waiting on three orders...and just have wayyyyyyyyyy too much stuff ...I need to be scrapping MORE...LOL  but that would mean I need more free time...ugh
 

It's a sickness - I look around my room and know I have WAY too much stuff but then I see all the pretty things in the store and order more.

I agree about the challenges this month - I loved how we switch challenges in April because it brings such interesting perspectives on the challenges.  I know with the Manufacturer Challenge I host, it's really becoming difficult to come up with new / fresh ideas.

ive done more this month challenge wise than I have in recent months...

Well it’s all about how you define “need” Bonnie LOL   I agree, the challenges this month are so inspirational! I’ve got a laundry list to work on next weekend!

My problem is I buy new stuff but think I should use old stuff first and then the new stuff becomes old stuff before I use it!  GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...........

[CarrieG]

I told DH that I very likely might have bit off more than I can chew some weeks this past year............
daycare, personal life and a good friend and I have a shop in a local vendors mall..........seems like I only get to scrap in the weeee or late hours of the day
im ready for the pool weather to stay and me being able to RELAX..LOL

Hi fellow scrappers! .can,t scrap today. Cleaning and doing laundry to get ready for the week ahead! Just wanted to cheer you on! I, too, look forward to retirement. And short term, to NSD, when I plan to put chores aside and scrap all day! Cheers!
 

[StacyLee]

I really try to buy stuff I already have pics for, or know I’ll use...for the most part. I also purge a couple times a year and that helps. My scrap space doubles as my home office, so it forces me to be tidy and organized. The retreat I’m going to has a “giving table” and I’m taking a small tote bag full of stuff to donate. Makes me feel better about buying more.

Speaking of laundry, I’d better get to it myself! See you at NSD!

I'm back and I also cannot wait for NSD here at ACOT.  It is one of my favorite scrappy days!  I love retreats and hate them at the same time, lol!  I try to go to at least one every year.  It is a great opportunity to clean out the stash while packing to go

That is always my thoughts but then I don't scrap the photos right away and my thought process changes and poof!!  That stuff is now obsolete for that project, lol.
