scrapbooking..sort of

Oct 21, 2009 21:57

 So Wed-Fri of this week I am in a training called Capturing Kinds Hearts.  Its about creating communities in the classroom, among other things.  Today was spent getting basics covered as well as getting to know our group. It was fun, but emotionally tiring.  One of our homework assignments was to decorate a lunch bag into which people will drop notes of affirmation.  So I got out my scrapbooking supplies and put stickers all over this poor bag.  So it was "sort of" scrapbooking.  But its fun and I am reminded how much I enjoy scrapbooking and how I can get lost in making something festive.  For someone like me who cannot draw, scrapbooking allows me to be creative with the joy of stickers and paper cutters, etc.  It not only helps archive photos(and I don;t even want to think of how many boxes of old photos I have), but it protects them and tells a story.  The next one will be my sister's wedding, for her mother in law who could not attend the wedding.
        It also reminded me of the scrapbooking projects that are still unfinished and yes, unstarted.  Just not enough hours in the  day for all the crafts.   Plus I began dreaming up new garb ideas in my head as I worked out  at the gym tonight.  Argh.  
      Sigh.  Its 10pm, time to snuggle with my now boneless puppy dog and watch House Hunters International.
