Even with my son's Eagle Court of Honor looming on June 11, I am having trouble finishing the Boy Scout albums. I have about 15 pages left to do (last 18 months and his project). Ever since I went back to work part time, I have trouble getting up there. I sure enjoy while I am doing it and still love shopping!

Can you do something like make an appointment for yourself to scrapbook? I have a similar problem - I know once I get started, I will enjoy it and probably get so engrossed I will forget what time it is; it's just the 'getting started' that I keep putting off. If I make plans to scrap, I can get started and I'm off and running.

congratulations to your Eagle! My son is an Eagle also.
I agree - build scrapbooking into your schedule

I can relate- I finally finished DD2's highschool grad album in time for her to graduate from college! Can you do the last 15pages using the same design or layout to make things go quicker for you? If you do at least one per day, you can still get it done (but I'm sure once you're in the zone you'll be able to get a lot finished in one sitting). Will you have time this weekend? Maybe today or tomorrow you can get your supplies set out and ready to go so that when you do have time to sit down and work on it, it will be easier to get started. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

I would give myself two days to get it done. Buy some new embellishments and go. You know you have to get it done, so sooner than later?

I find getting up early to scrap works for me
If I plan it for the evening 9 times out of ten I'm just far too tired
