That's funny, five dollars at TRU doesn't go too far!! I scrapbooked until 2am, it was great!! I am trying to finish scrapbooking my WDW/DCL trip from September!

How many books have you finished?! Wow!!! I will NEVER be caught up, or even within a few years of being caught up.

Some in our area closed a couple of years ago, as well as the Kids R Us. I used to buy the kids' clothes there. We have 2 Toys R Us left, and one Babies R Us. Around here I think competition with WalMart and Target is too great.

I wish Target was closer to my house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CONGRATS ABBY~~She booked with my TA and got a WONDERFUL onboard credit. Nikki/Steve transferred tooo...Congrats..Just think of all the extra OBC you both got.....

If anyone is interested in getting in touch with her about transferring I can send you her information..If we get enough together then we can get a group rate and the group ammenties..(Palo's Brunch, or a welcome cocktail reception.)

The OBC is great. We have a group together for my Oct. cruise and we all have gotten a GREAT rate and AWESOME OBC..~~~Just an FYI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Anyone got TLC channel??Check out the show that is on right now. The man on is eating 33,000 calories a day...............

I just turned TLC on. I think it will be more informative/interesting than Drake & Josh, which we've been watching for the past 1 1/2 hours.

Your TA and I traded e-mails three times yesterday and got everything taken care of. Actually I e-mailed her early yesterday morning and she responded to me by 7:30am. I didn't expect a response until tomorrow! Anyway, glad we transferred to her. Looking forward to the extra OBC and ammenities.

I have about 15 creative memories albums scrapbooked- (they have triple sets of pages in them). A huge WDW album(not CM)from 2005(it is attached with cable ties and has it's own case ) Also my wedding album (not CM) was my first one. I have a couple of vacation albums, and also a beautiful CM album for my DD's 1st yr. I just went on a scrapbooking cruise with my DS and 147 other scrapbookers from a local scrapbook store and did alot of drinking...errr... scrapbooking too. I love it!!!

Kritter- I watched that show, all I could say was WOW!!!

I am watching Holby and as its the first day of diet no Choc's!

I thought I'd let it go for New Year's Day, Andrew! TOO many leftovers in the fridge... Started properly today - drank a bottle of water first thing, switched to decaff coffee and later I'm off to the gym for a personal training session!!!

WOW!!!

I really want to scrapbook my 25th Anniversary/Vow Renewal cruise but just haven't got around to it yet... Actually I've got piles of stuff from various trips that should be scrapbooked - it's a little daunting... Ah well, someday, someday!

That's ALOT! Way to go! I have two non-CM, and 3 CM in progress. I did complete a 5x7 Mothers Day CM album (only two sets of pages) for my mom last year. My Disney cruise is the one I just started in Nov. It is non-CM and I am not happy with it at all. I bought the album on board and forgot how much I dislike the non-CM albums. Plus there is no way I will ever fit it all in one album. So I am considering switching it all over to a CM one. I only have 26 pages done on it. Also in Nov. I bought one of the kits for pets, so sometime this winter I'll do one just for our dog. That'll be an easy one though.

Do you have a place in your house you can leave everything out? My mom has a huge craft room, which I would die for!! I have a closet, literally.

I also watched that show. How sad. Did you watch the one after, about Manuel? I had seen that one before.

Have a good day everyone! It is about 0 degrees here, snowing, and wind blowing. We have to go back to work this morning. UGH. These past two 4 day weekends have been wonderful! Back to reality..............

We shop at Target more than Wal-Mart or K-Mart and fortunately they all are close by! Kohl's is my absolute favorite for clothes though.

If a large album is too daunting then why not try a mini album for your anniversary cruise, or choose yourself a colour palette and buy co-ordinating collection packs of papers etc so you have kess decision making to do - then you can just get on with the pages. Have you looked at www.ukscrappers.co.uk for inspiration?

Other than that, It's a day to generate the month and yearly reports.

I scrapbook in my attic, I have a 5 foot table so I can leave it out all of the time. The walls are slanted, but I have a couple of bookshelves to put everything out. My DD's playroom is up there and we go up all of the time. I wish I had a room(with regular walls)for shelving and decorate it scrapbook style. I have so much stuff though.

I am so jelious. I wish I had a space where I could set up and not have to worry about it. I would get so much more done!

I have one non Cm scapbook done and about six CM books completed and three that are in progress. I have a school book for my DD, my cruise book, and my yearly albulm. I am about a year behind since I just finished my daughters last b'day party and her birthday is next week!

TBH I really don't know what my problem is - when we took my DH's niece to WDW in August 2006, I made her a scrapbook of the trip as soon as we returned!

Thanks for the website link - I'll be sure to check it out...

Out of interest, what do you ladies like about the CM products?

I like their tape runners, and albums. That's all I really buy from them now. I went to a Creative Memories class in 1995, (that was really all that was out there scrapbook wise) and have been scrapbooking ever since.

I know very little about CM so am interested too. I just like playing with all sorts of lovely paper and stuff! I am very lucky that I get to use lots of stock from the store to make samples and online classes with so I get a nice lot of freebies!

Well as great as I can being at work
Since I support part of the Web environment, I do get to go online in between real work

 

[CustardTart]

How are you feeling today, Kristin???

Today I went to the gym for the first time in 2008 which was good but my gymwear seemed tighter than my last visit which was bad! Ah well, at least I was in the right place to do something about it sooo I worked hard and thoroughly enjoyed the session! I'm seeing my personal trainer again on Monday so I'm hoping to get back into shape asap...

Spent the afternoon dismantling the real tree in the conservatory and collecting together all the Christmas decorations displayed around the house. Will box those up tomorrow and concentrate on dismantling the faux tree and all my Disney baubles in the hall at the weekend...

Have discovered that there'll be a Pirates & Princesses Party at MK when DD and I visit in May so we're booking tickets for that!
