    What is the first non-scrap related thing you are going to do when you have finished MOC5?

    Hug your kids?
    Go outside?
    Dig through the pile of PopTart packets to the next room?
    Hahaha!!

    I am going to treat myself to a couple of hours of Sims4, because they added toddlers partway through the month and I knew if I started to play I would never get off.

    My real kids can wait for their hugs.

    Hahaha! It's fun, those toddlers. So enjoy!
    I binged a couple of episodes of The Bridge on Netflix.

    :rofl

    Me? I think I might scrap some more and pretend it's not over :neener

    Seriously, my floor desperately needs mopping, and my piles (digital and real life) need some organizing. I think I'll dub February Organize This! at my house.

    As soon as I finished my last challenge page, I scrapped two more that were related pages just because I'm in that scrappy mode! :giggle Tonight I think I will go down to my craft room and actually bust out my paints. They collected dust in January for some reason.

    That's basically my philosophy at the moment. After I finished on Tuesday, I snuck in a couple of the January designer challenges and yesterday I started on the February challenges. I'm basically avoiding finishing up my 2016 project life book which has turned into a total train wreck.

    Non-scrapping stuff? Need to pack for our weekend in Indianapolis. We leave tomorrow for my daughter's dance competition so there's tons of little things we can't forget to pack.

    Not possible for any project of yours to be a train wreck. I'm not buying it. :nope

    That's very sweet Karen! And I wish it was true. But it is total carnage at the moment. I've only printed the first third of the year. Book 2 is almost done, but I have a blank page to fill with nothing to fill it with and I'm avoiding journaling on another set of pages from July. For book 3, I haven't done anything with the last two months of the year's worth of photos... they are completely unorganized (some on my computer, some on the cloud, some in texts that I never downloaded, etc) and I took ZERO notes during that time. I need to just sit down, start slapping photos onto templates, label what I can and call it done. This is part of the reason I'm trying really hard to journal in my planner each day. So if I get behind, I can at least have some clue what went on! :dizzy

    Just finished some surprise portrait photos of my friends kids ! Fancy stuff with bokeh or blurred back grounds , and I am that chuffed with them. Made a fun birthday card for her as well, and 2 "everyday pages".
    Now of to do Anne's skinny.... I guess I am a bit addicted, but the portraits I started a few days ago, I only finished them of today (mind you that still took 3 hours lol )
    EDIT EDIT : you said non scrap related. .. Asked my huband to take me out to dinner.... we went ,and it was lovely.

    I did some creative team layouts for BYOC - and TLP challenges coming up.
    Can we agree that I am addicted?

    Made my list of the Feb challenges. Vacuumed the floors. Today: sell Girl Scout cookies at a booth (or rather supervise my dd selling cookies), mop the kitchen, and clean the bathrooms. Oh, and host friends at our house tonight.

    I finished on Tuesday and I've already forgotten what I did immediately afterward. I did spend a little time in the gallery and forum. I was thinking about not scrapping again for a week, but yesterday I was intrigued by the February challenges and I wrote them all down in my desk calendar as I like to do for easy reference and crossing off. And then I participated in the Slow Scrap -- so much for not scrapping. I think I'm not going to have time to scrap today though! It's dress rehearsal AND opening night for my girls' theater show, Beauty & The Beast. I have to make brownies for the concession stand, and then run the concession stand.
