 I know the feeling, been the same here.  Didn't even get much done on my day off the other day.  Now I have a 3 day weekend, but the weather is supposed to be perfect, so I will be torn between scrapping and being outside in the sunshine.  Funny thing is, if I had a few hours' worth of scrap time, I'd have zero ideas on a LO!

Whine over here too :winkb:

 Hopefully you can sneak in a little bit of time. Do one small piece at a time. In 2 weeks you'll have a page done ;)

 You? Not scrapping? That seems nearly impossible!!!
Hope you get some time to yourself and can play again!

A lightbulb just went off for me Shannon. I scrapbook the same way I clean house...all or nothing. I do not have any unfinished projects sitting around...mostly because if I don't see a way of finishing them, I won't start them until I have a block of time big enough to get it done.

Sadly...my house looks like pigs live in it because of this way of thinking!

 Laura, I have stopped sitting down with nothing in mind when I scrapbook.  It just doesn't work for me.  I get so frustrated.  So, I think about layouts while I'm doing other things and when I get an idea, I go sit down and do it.

 I hope life slows down for you soon but look at this way - you're making the memories to scrap later on down the road, right?

Boy, if I waited for a block of time to scrap instead of having a million unfinished projects I would never scrap. Every thing I do is unfinished until it's finished - does that make sense? I go in spurts - that's what I mean. :)

 I too am an all or nothing personality. I can't move onto another layout without finishing the one I'm working on and I don't really clean unless I have time to tackle the entire house.

 I hope life stops freaking out on you soon so that you can get back to the scrappy goodness we all love to drool over. :winkb: :greenlol:

 I am so sorry----especially as I have been a scrapping fool. I have finished almost 20 layouts this week. Been home the last 3 with a semi-sick kiddo so that has helped. Also after a long winter of working--my mojo is coming back now that I am back to 3 days a week.  Hope you get to do some scrapping soon.

 I know what you mean!!!  It has been incredibly busy lately... I have had something to do every night this week.  And the weekend is going to be busy too!   I just want a few hours to myself to scrapbook!!
