How Does Anything Ever Get Done?

I think that all my progress in organization that I've been making in the last few weeks has officially gone down the drain. I've been sick the last few days and without me being on top of everything nothing gets done! I did force myself to shampoo the carpets upstairs on Tuesday and Kolbi still hasn't put her room back in order. I had told her to make sure her floors were clear and when I went to shampoo they, of course, weren't. So I threw everything on her bed. She's been sleeping on the floor the last two days! All I can say is... 13. I guess it goes without saying that there is no scrap room progress. :( I'm going to dose up on some tylenol and try to do something in there today. We'll see.... I can't wait to start my new projects!

No Progress Today

There will be no time to work on the scrap room today. Got to get to my real job! Our newsletter goes out today and we are starting some major work on updating our website look. Please give me any ideas or comments if you happen to make it all the way over to collectedmemories.com.

The before pictures

I'm almost too embarrassed to post these pictures but I'm trying not to sugar coat the mess that is my 'scrap room'. Unfortunately this is the room that tends to get the brunt of the last minute clean up. Since I do a lot of scrapping at Scrapadoodles (my LSS) it's easy to put off any straightening up that needs to be done in my actual scrap room.


I did get a quite a bit done but I know that there's sooo much more to do. I'm finding all sorts of great papers and embellishments that I need to get working with! It's definately a little inspiring because I tend to be a project starter (but not finisher) and now there are several projects that just need a few finishing touches to complete! Anyway, here's some stage one pictures...
Back to work!

What am I going to do today?

So I just got back from CHA in Anaheim and promise myself to make more time to create! First off I have to reign in that mess I call a scrap room. I will start that organization today. I'm excited to bring in my new Clip It Up that Justin gave me for Valentine's Day. It will magically organize my room with little effort... right? We'll see. I'll be posting some before and after photos to prove my good intentions. Ok - short and sweet, I'm off to work!
