Still alive and kind of kicking (were it not for a sore leg muscle and way too much overtime at work), guuuurl! The parcel is still MIA. However, it looks like its non-identical twin is on its way to me. Katie stepped up and went hunting for some DD goodies to send me. Since most of what I ordered is sold out, she put together a lovely replacement parcel which contains a partial Paislee Press mini kit (if you hear the echoing sound of a scream in the distance, do not worry: that's just me being overjoyed from this side of the Atlantic ![:laugh:](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Ivm7lm0DayrhoRpwvCeH.jpg) ). I'm going to get this DD project done, darn it!

Ok, so it's not exactly DD-related, but since we often scrapbook when we're sitting at a desk, let's say there's a connection What is the best, comfy desk chair you found please? I scrapbook and work in front of a computer most of the time. It's time to invest in a good chair now.

@millefeuilles I'm an active sitter so unlikely to be of much help, I'm afraid. I absolutely love my IKEA NILSERIK stool but it's not for those wanting to recline and rest their back (and some people even find it incredibly uncomfortable, go figure).

I scrapbook and work in front of a computer most of the time. It's time to invest in a good chair now. Pretty sure the brand I bought isn't available in France, but I looked for a chair that was rated as suitable for 8-10 hours of computer work and with 3 levers to adjust seat height, angle & depth and backrest angle. It's much more comfy than my last chair. I do some work from home as well as a lot of crafting sitting at my laptop or desk so something with good lumbar support is essential. At work we have Formway 'Life' chairs which are very good. Knoll distributes them in Europe. www.zenithinteriors.com/nz/product/life-chairThere's also has a model called 'Be' which I'd love to try out. www.zenithinteriors.com/nz/product/be-task-chairSaveSaveSaveSave

I have this model in another color. www.ikea.com/fr/fr/catalog/products/00237578/ Useless for my use but what can I say, I went for aesthetic first.

So I posted earlier that Felicity Jane has started shipping the December kits...turns out, even though FJ has made NO announcements about it, only orders without the album are being shipped. According to Jen Schow, FJ hasn’t even received the albums.
There has been zero communication from FJ about this. Just an Instagram post celebrating that Joy kits were shipping, while conveniently failing to mention that orders with albums would NOT be shipping.
I am beyond fed up with FJ at this point.

Ugh that's frustrating. Doesn't she understand it's practically the middle of November. Soo glad I didn't order anything - would be useless for Christmas this year. SaveSave

I'm surprised and not that Shimelle's kits haven't shipped yet. I think she had this problem last year too. People didn't get their kits until right around Dec 1st and the only thing unique to her are the stamp sets. I want one of the sets and forgot to pre-order. I feel better about it now.

I checked this morning and the 1st chair you mentionned is about 1000 euros. I can't find the second but I'm sure the price is about this too. I'll have to find something else, but many thanks for helping me.

Do anyone have a screenshot of what protectors are supposed to come with Ali's albums? They took it off the site and I think mine is jacked.
Thanks

Yikes @millefeuilles didn't realise they were quite so expensive! Hope you can find something cheaper which is comfortable and has good support.

Someone posted a picture of the problem about 6 hours ago. The 3x4 cards are just as tall/ stick out of the page protectors. I've had this problem on all 3x4 pp. Looks like she has the same one with 3x4+4x6 pp configuration.

I got two albums and they have different qtys.

I believe there have been in previous years, though I might be thinking of the WITL albums. I have extra 3x8 pp so I wasn't worried about it.

So I have been gone on a trip since mid-last week and came home to my FJ DD goodies. I opened the box and I am so glad that a) I did not order the full FJ kit and b) I had no plans to make FJ product the 'guts' on my album.
I am seriously under-wowed with the stuff I did get. Its just so 'blah' in real life. The nicest thing I can say about what I got is that the acetate is nice and heavy and the vellum is good. The color scheme is so drab.
