There! I said it. I admitted it! I'm hopelessly addicted to scrapping! I think I'll blame it on my Nikon or maybe Katrina. You see, ever since I got my camera and took Katrina's class, I take photos galor! And those photos just HAVE to be scrapped, right? As well as my vintage and heirloom photos of family that need scanned and scrapped. And I haven't even mentioned all the classes I'm taking. I spend waaaaay too many hours in front of my PC. I THINK if I gave up Facebook's games, I'd do alot better!
Somebody help me!!

If you wake up in the morning and head straight to your PC to check email and forums...............you MIGHT be addicted.
If you let the dogs out and FORGET to let them back in.........................you MIGHT be addicted.
If you notice that's it's 5PM and you haven't even gotten anything out of the freezer for dinner...................you MIGHT be addicted.
If your husband threatens to divorce you because all you do is scrap......................you MIGHT be addicted.
If you go on vacation and HAVE to take your laptop....................you MIGHT be addicted.

So......do you gals have some kind of schedule for scrapping?

Oh my! I checked yes to all but the dogs, . . . I have 2 cats and I do forget to get them inside before dark . . . . sometimes . . . I think I could add to the laptop one . . . you have to take your own laptop and refuse to let hubby use it! So he bring his own too! But really, I download my photos each day and write a diary entry covering that day . . . I'm too old to remember anything . . . that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

I LOVE the diary idea for the photos. I can't remember anything either.

yep to all but the dogs :) I don't have a schedule. I usually scrap on the weekend - in fact, this is the first weekend in a long time that I didn't get any pages made! :pout:

Since I still have many projects to work on around the house after my recent "retirement", I use scrapping as my reward. When I finish my tasks for the day, I get to play! Just like a kid :cheerleader:

My son always says,"If Mom had gotten addicted to drugs...it would have been cheaper."
Yes, I am addicted to this hobby. From inky fingers to organizing my scrap area, love it all. Whenever I can, I scrap- otherwise you will find me with a art/scrap magazine, camera taking pictures, or on a borrowed computer when away-checking this site!
And yes, Sherelm, addiction is not funny- and THIS kind is the only one to have. :cheerleader:
