I got a few pages in my March TN done and I finished that book, which was HUGE because I wasn’t a fan of the kit color scheme.
I started using the April kit to continue the “ronacoaster” documentation (LOVE that term!)
I’ve also made progress in my December Daily album and I’m *almost* finished with it. I can see the finish line—I just gotta keep on keepin on with it!
This month has been strange. I’ve been lucky enough to work from home but it’s almost harder with a grade schooler who has limited at home school structure. Trying to continue to work full time plus help a grade schooler with at home assignments is hard. The last day of school was last Wednesday, but still trying to work full time and take time to keep him busy/fed/entertained is hard! I spent most of the long weekend relaxing and wanting to rest!
Although, I have to admit I cleaned out a hall closet and got rid of a bunch of clutter in my home office/craft room—to the point I was standing at my craft table today and it felt like there was so much extra room because there weren’t boxes/stuff stacked behind me and next to me. I’m going to have a clutter free office/craft room soon—at least I hope so!! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

This month has been strange. I’ve been lucky enough to work from home but it’s almost harder with a grade schooler who has limited at home school structure. Trying to continue to work full time plus help a grade schooler with at home assignments is hard. The last day of school was last Wednesday, but still trying to work full time and take time to keep him busy/fed/entertained is hard! I spent most of the long weekend relaxing and wanting to rest! Keeping a kiddo on task, entertained, and/or safe, happy and fed is a big job! Being able to do anything else, let alone a full time job and/or homeschooling them, that's a big ask. Good for you for getting anything else done. Our county was just approved for Phase 2 today. That means retail opening back up, limited in person dining, some/most services like dog grooming and barbershops opening, basically a good sign that things have settled down here. Our state has been pretty strict with allowing things to reopen. I'm high risk and not terribly confident in people doing the right thing so I'm not in any hurry to leave my bubble, but hopefully its a good sign. I do feel like I'm really "behind" on my virus diaries now though!  In some ways I know that's dysfunctional. I got some new Trinity Stamps supplies to play with, some slimline dies which I think will work well with some other supplies I have that haven't had much use, and I just ordered some stamps from The Ton, trying to support the little guys, so I should be crafting up a storm soon. |

Wow ComplicatedLady you are rocking it! My son is trying to work full time from home with his 5 yo and it's hard! Fingers crossed for your craft room! My city went to phase 2 today as well. The rest of the businesses and bars can open at 50% capacity and keeping patrons 6 ft apart. That will last until July 5th. Our mayor said that was deliberate as he doesn't want us to be the next Lake of the Ozarks disaster. He's done such a good job of handling all of this. Much better than our governor. SMH. joblackford, I'm not too anxious to get outside of my bubble either. Especially after last weekend. I haven't started my rona documenting since I'm still waiting on the papers I ordered. Back in March I was ready to document this, but now I'm so over it all that I have no interest in documenting. I know I will once my papers get here (Monday!). I'm not ready to get out, but I also wish we could go back to 'normal'. Even though I don't ever see that happening again. I think the weight and the emotional drain of it all is finally hitting. I hope everyone is having a great week. I can't believe it's almost June! Time to start gathering totals for the month already! I have a couple more LOs to get posted just under the wire lol. |

How's it going everyone? Got my last 2 LOs posted just under the wire. Today has been a bust. My sewing machine came the other day. I had great intentions of setting it up and playing around with it today. It's out of the box and I've watched the DVD that came with it lol. Not much else getting done here today. But I have to say that even though I tell myself I'm such a slow scrapper, I'm averaging a LO a week this year which is pretty huge for me. If you have your points tallied, you can post them in this thread, pm me with them or post them in the general challenge thread in your spot. If you're anything like me - I claim a spot, and then never update it!  I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! |

I did 16 layouts, which is pretty good for me, but I only got a total of 341 points. There weren't as many challenges this month, so my layouts were not very high scoring.

I started the month out strong and loved the scrapbook weekend, but then I didn't do as much as I hoped after that weekend and shared very little and commented very little. Bummer! Hope to do better in June.
My May points - 575

I started out the month strong with the crop too, then sputtered out. I always seems to sputter out around mid month anyway lol.
I did at least manage to post on the crop weekend for double points.
Did everyone that took part in the crop remember to double the points for anything you shared that weekend?
