Hard to believe another year is almost over. December is a busy month for many of us so let's try for small, realistic goals this month  And perhaps look at your 2023 yearly goals and start considering 2024 goals - I'll post a wrapup thread towards the end of the month for 2023 and then a new 2024 thread as well. link to 2023 yearly thread 2peasrefugees.boards.net/thread/136178/2023-goals-plans-focus |

December is busy here although not as busy as I had originally planned since our trip had to be cancelled.
I want to get my Christmas cards mailed ASAP
I would like to finish the Atlanta trip album
I need to cut, layer, and frame a sewing machine cut file for a gift
I hope to figure out vinyl and cut a design for a tumbler...that one might be a reach

Last month I rearranged my craft corner so I could reach almost all my stuff without getting out of my chair, it's a little tight but I like the layout. I also made DS (10) his own little area and table so he can make his projects on his desk and not mine. I am going to have fun in December tweaking my new space. I've already knocked my pen cup off the back of my desk three times, so I need to figure out a solution... I ordered photos, arranged them in chronological order, and scrapped October 1st. I will be working on the other 30 days of October Daily this month. Trying to decide if I'm sending Christmas cards this year or not... if I am, I should get on that  |

breetheflea - I love having everything within reach of my desk - so much easier. Good luck tweaking it to be perfect!

I want to work on my Dec album this month. I usually finish it in the first few days of Jan so I don't expect to complete it, but I'd like to at least be on track to finish it in the same time frame as previous years.

Not sure how much actual crafting I will be doing this month. Still have some baking, holiday decorating, and quite a bit of wrapping to do, and I will have my dgs (aged ten) for a week and then drive to stay with two other dgs's (aged 10 and almost 12) for a few days. By then it will be a few days before Christmas!
I do have a few birthday cards I need to put together this month. Need to get on that!
And I want to take lots of photos I can scrap after the holidays.

My goal for the month is to take plenty of photos & write down lots of words for my Countdown to Christmas album. If I scrap some of those photos & words, great, but the album-making can wait until January if it needs to. I'm working in a new size and still getting used to the way it looks.

I would like to at a minimum write down my stories and page ideas for each day of December daily. I’m already 2 days “behind”. Lol.
I have 3 weeks of project life 2021 which would be a bonus to complete this month to call that year done.

I've actually made a start on my Thailand album, hallelujah! I've done 26 pages in the last week or so, although I haven't finished the journalling on every page yet. I feel like I am flying along, and I'm really enjoying it. So my goal for December is to get more pages done. I'm a bit worried though, because I am only up to the afternoon of Day 3 of a 15 day trip, and already up to 26 pages.  |

For December there’s only a couple things I want to accomplish:
1. Finish creating & mailing christmas cards. I’ve got around 65 of the 90 cards I need made. I’ve got around 45 envelopes made so far. My goal is to finish making envelopes for the cards that are made so I can get them into the mail. There’s a big storm hitting town tonight so I may need to wait until Tuesday to go to the PO. 🌧️
2. Clean up my desk and (temporarily) put christmas away. I’m changing out some of the storage in my craft room closet to accommodate more shelving and also mounting a small tv near my desk. Once those are in place I’ll bring the christmas supplies back out to finish up making cards/envelopes. I hope to have the room back together and functional in a few days. 🤞🏻
