Scrapfest

Until recently, my scrapbooks have sat on our shelves due to a drop in creativity on my part, as well as my energies put to other pursuits, like transforming my bedroom from blue to shades of brown, red and orange. Yesterday, we realized we'd been spending too much money on redecorating, so out came the scrapbooks!

Sometimes I get a burst of inspiration for my scrapbooks, so I have to take advantage of it. I did four pages and finished 4 others that I had started but not completed. Then today I did 2 more from scratch and completed 2 others. I'm ready to give myself some sort of medal. Actually, I'm just really happy. For me scrapbooking combines a lot of my talents and interests - photos, writing, creating, and a desire to preserve all things nostalgic. So I'm a satisfied Gina right now.

Hey Gina! Whenever you are back in the states, if you want to go scrapbooking with me, that would be a GREAT way for us to get together!! :-) There is a scrapbook store by my house called Scrap & Spa. You can go in and scrapbook during their workshops and also get a massage. When I first saw the sign, I thought that they offered all spa experiences. Unfortunately, they don't! However, the massage is AWESOME! Last time I went and got an hour long massage. When she gently woke me up, I realized that I had drooled on my arm!! :-)
