Been a while
Been a while since I blogged, probably because I feel guilty that I haven't scrapped lately. I am going to challenge myself to at least a page a week. I promise that I won't buy anything until I scarp at least three pages : ). Well unless I really need it. Maybe that way I'll get with the program.
I would love to hear from more people about how they motivate themselves!

Feeling Lazy
Not too motivated still, but I have made a date with some friends to go scrapping. Should be fun. We'll go to a scrap night at a local store...can't wait, I have lots of "ner" thing to try out. I also want to get jump started again.

Journaling
Do you like to journal. I do, but sometimes its hard to get started. I just recently bought a Creative Memories journaling template. I hope to put it to good use.
Usually I tend to find poems that I think are appropriate for the pictures. But I really think it would be nice to get into journaling and write more descriptive explanantions for the pages that I scrap. I plan to start this weekend by finishing a book that I have been working on for over a year. I want to move on to other things, but I feel compelled to finish one first. Just three more pages to go. Lets see what happens this weekend.

Ebay Revisited
As mentioned in the comment on Ebay it is indeed a dangerous place to go. As for myself I do keep a mental checklist of items that I want or am interested in. What is nice about Ebay is that you can factor in shipping and place a limit on how high you'll go. In addition you can use strtegies to get at the best prices.
For instrance I wanted a Creative Memories Corner Rounder. I bid and watched several for sale, but let them go when they went over $5. Then I caught several ending at 5:00 in the morning and watched the bid for a while and finally won it for $.15. Granted the shippiing is about $3.50, but I still come out ahead.
Easy to get out of control, but you can get some good prices.

Motivation
Greetings All....
I wonder sometimes where people get the motivation to scrap. Much as I like to do it, I find that I somtimes lack the motivation and energy to do it.
What inspires you!

Getting Organized
I really need to get better organized. I have lots of pictures that I would like to pull together, but never enough time. I figure if I work it long enough I will get it done. But I am not at all consistent.
I could really use some good tips on scrapbooking time management. Guess I need a game plan. I'll get there one of these days.

So this morning I was thinking about pulling together a book covering the time span between my husband and I meeting and getting married...any ideas for organizations?
