I will keep working on my monthly book. If I do one month per week, I have three weeks to spare before the end of the year. That will be catch up time. I'm sure I will need it. Monthly 2022 - June- July- Aug - Sep Less Important - fun pages to play with pretty supplies. Ideas: audiobooks, reading to Diana. - maybe look at Halloween stuff again. - Don't buy anything until black Friday if at all. I am a week behind because my daughter had pink eye and it wrecked my sleep too. I am done June and July and I made a couple silly pages about my dog. I was tempted to buy during Ali Edwards digital sale but resisted.

I want to: * finish the last sketchtember sketch, I've only got one left to go * make and send cards for the Christmas card swap * sort and put away all my recent purchases which are currently everywhere they should not be * do some pages for my PL, either pocket or 12x12 I haven't done as much crafting as I hoped this month, although I have made progress on the last three on my list. All my recent purchases are sorted and put away, and I've been working on the Christmas cards this weekend, currently have around half of them mostly done. That last sketchtember sketch is still on my to do list, I'm just not inspired by the photo/story I have that would be a good fit for the sketch. I expect I'll get some other photos as we head into Christmas that will work so I'm going to sit on it a while longer.

I'm going to try and get through most of my cutting die backlog this month. I have two very big orders incoming late November/early December and I need to get my basket of shame under control! Polished up four sets of dies today, ready for use and storage. 19 left to go! Six more sets down, but four new ones arrived (early!) in the mail. So not as much progress as I'd wish. 10/27

This month, I hope to: 1. Work some more on my wedding album. I don't think I will be able to complete it by the end of the year as I had originally hoped, but I would like to be close to finished. 2. Repair some layouts my toddler pulled apart. 3. Move my scrapbooks to their new home. 4. It is a no spend November for me as well! A few updates for me: 1. I was supposed to have Saturday to myself for scrapping purposes, I even had plans to have the kids spend the day with grandparents, but everything fell apart. Ugh. Hopefully I will some scrappy time soon! But next weekend is for Thanksgiving/Christmas decorating... 2. I found the layouts! I did not fix them though. I did a major reorganization in my scrap room last week instead. 3. 100% complete. 4. Officially chilly now, as I apparently have no control this month.

It's not quite the end of the month, but I got all my cards made and mailed today. That leaves me with the last sketchtember sketch, which I'm still determined to complete.

I am done June and July and I made a couple silly pages about my dog. I was tempted to buy during Ali Edwards digital sale but resisted. So my husband got pink eye but the viral kind. Not the bacterial kind my daughter had. I have had a horrible cough and chest pain that refuse to go away. Still I got 3 more months done. I track my progress by week in a spreadsheet and I just missed week 45 this month. I was going to buy some templates, papers and elements from IACB but I didn't. I can't decide on a size for December Daily and if I do hybrid or photobook. I didn't want to buy both the TN and 6x8 sizes. Plus a 10% discount is not enough to cover the tax. (I wonder if this is a Canadian thing to compare tax rate 15% to the discount at a store?)

Horribly! But I am the proud new owner of some pretty Christmas paper, so no regrets. 😉
