Trying to get through a long week. A very productive week, yet, somehow it just feels like a very heavy week. I can't believe tomorrow is already the first of May. This year is flying by. I wish I could just stop time. Or better yet, just record my time better. It's pretty obvious I've completely stopped my old love of documenting my life through pretty papers with words and pictures glued on. I wish I had more time to create, to document, to remember. But to say I don't have time is just an excuse. I could always make time. I know this. I just have more important things to do right now. I wonder if I'll ever get back into it. If I do, it will never be what it used to be. The obsessive paper buying. The endless hours spent on blogs and websites. Trying to use "cool new" supplies. I realize what a waste of money that was, especially now that all my supplies are collecting dust. And even though I don't think I will ever go back to that level of commitment, I really do miss it my old nerdy hobby.
Try not to give up scrapbooking - it's a great way to document your life for future generations in your family. You don't have to buy everything - keep it simple - and journaling is one of the most important things. Cathy

Even if you aren't scrapping now, you are still taking amazing pics that could be scrapped later. One of the good things about this is that you can always come back to it. :) Happy May!!

Having the same bad scrappin' mojo you're describing. Did you know you can have your blog bound into a book? That's one way to solve part of the problem.

I went on a lonnnnnng hiatus and now, I wonder the same thing... if I'll ever get back to it (I want to really really badly), but life just comes up. I hear you. My poor blog sits out there in the www alone and neglected too, lol :D I'm going to declare it a mission to make at least one mini this year, ahahaahaha!
