Is anyone doing LOAD? Any other challenges? Any scrappy goals for the month? How are you doing on your overall 2019 goals?Why not throw your NSBR goals in here too? Set your goals here and then come back and keep us posted on how you're doing. I've been meaning to get caught up on layouts that need journaling, titles, or dates for so long now. I worked on journaling and dates today and by tomorrow, after cutting five titles, I'll have 33 finished layouts. I feel so accomplished!  So I feel like I'm starting with a clean slate for February. This month I would like to: Edit and order a batch of pictures Edit and order Disney vacation pictures Finish putting together my half finished Disney album kit Schedule and plan a full scrapbook day with no interruptions Hopefully get started scrapping Disney pics! My fave!  Use some unloved supplies Stop by Tuesday Morning once a week NSBR goals Teach DD how to make homemade bread and pizza crust Plan a board game day with friends and family Work out 4-5 days a week Finish the book I started yesterday |

I did not meet my Jan goal to be caught up on current photos because a 2 day crop was cancelled. In the mean time I have accumulated about 100 more photos. New baby, and son send me 32 photos from California, are now added to Christmas, New Year and previously unscrapped new baby photos.
So for the next 2 upcoming crop weekends I am going to make a large dent in these photos. I am going to get Christmas done because that is last year.
I have a 3 day retreat at the end of the month and I am planning to take my years in Arizona photos again. I made a huge dent in those last Nov and while there is no way I will finish, I think I can get another couple of years done.

I didn't do well at all with my January goals... I can't even believe we're into February already! My goals this month are home related... I'm taking a couple of days off mid-month to paint and I've got an electrician coming today to do some work and change some lighting that I've been wanting done for a very long time. Believe it or not I'm actually very excited about painting... not doing the work, but updating my house. I'm starting small, painting the hallway and kitchen first, and then an update to the main bathroom in the spring. Once that's done I can see myself moving on to the master and guest bedrooms... Chances are that by the end of the year my entire house will be freshened up with new paint!
Today I'm going to try to finish up my double page Christmas layout and maybe work on DD's birthday page. Can't do much else with the electrician in the house for half the day!

In February, I hope to complete at least 28 pages, and hopefully all of the 28-4-28 challenges.
At the very least I hope to reach a total of 59 pages for the year by the end of the month (an average of a page a day for 2019).
I also hope to complete the four scrapbooked canvases I have set up in the basement. Have all the photos printed and the supplies collected. Just need to get started...

Oh where to begin... even though I got a lot done at my retreat in January, I still have so much to do. Always...I need to to keep working on my Yellowstone album (I actually finished 1 album now doing second album, so many photos). I need to print the rest of those vacation photos. I also need to organize my photos and get caught up on printing. I want to start my childhood album this year. That’ll be next.

Morning peas! Looks like everyone is keeping busy! I continue on my quest to avoid shopping and scrap instead! Currently on page # 14/100. Have been avoiding the Tuesday Morning and clearance sale threads. That is my downfall. Have a 3 day crop later this month. Scrap scrap scrap!

Looking back at my January goals, I did finish PL 2018. I also started organizing my 9 x 12 stories album., But I'll need more page protectors which are on backorder. I have post-it notes put on page protectors to help me with the stories. I had taken notes when I watched her video lessons when I got the kits originally.
My goals for February include catching up on OLW and starting to tackle a big project for my son's school album.
I am doing a PL style 12 by 12 album with all my sons random School photos. I have some older simple stories snap cards and I've cut up lots of different papers to match and I will divide each section by grade level. I also took photos of lots of the artwork especially the things from preschool which are so too big to put in album. I did this for my younger son and it turned out really cute. But it's a lot of organizing before I can start.
--------------------------------------
2/28
Well, I spent most of the month organizing for my big school project. But I did start the album and finish preschool.

This wasn’t part of my goals for the month but I feel so accomplished that I have to share that I’ve just finished journaling, dates, and titles for 33 layouts AND put them in an album. I’m giving myself a pat on the back!

Scrap related goals:
- Finish December Daily — only 4 more stories left, thank god
- Start (dare I say and finish) my Japan minibook. I have so much memorabilia I am considering abandoning my 3x8 idea and making it a full 6x8.
- Post more layouts regularly on IG

Thought I'd bump this to the top since it is the end of the month. And it was way too short for what I had planned.

A month with only 28 days, too. I feel like I was somewhat successful with my goals. I did scrap a couple of layouts which wasn't on my list. DD and I did cook together - just not bread. I guess the rest can carry over into March. I probably won't add Tuesday Morning shopping to my list for March. In fact, I think I'll go on a spending freeze for the month besides necessities. Cardstock and adhesive only. |

I finished only 3 of the canvasses, but more than the number of pages: finished all 28-4-28challenges, plus some extras. Good thing I got ahead on pages, b/c March is going to be quite a bit slower scrap wise. |
