012513 A LOAD of Happiness


How do you make a scrapper HAPPY?
 
Why, give them a daily prompt 
to inspire them & permission 
to take the time to scrap 
every day for a month!


Nothing makes this scrapper HAPPIER
than enjoying time in my scrapspace with my scrapstash, 
cutting & pasting & misting & glitzing & playing with my goodies,
 leaving a legacy of memories documented with love & flair. 

But what's a girl to do? How can I make it happen 
when the fam needs food & the pets need to be, well, pet? 

Grab your crockpot cookbook, load up the freezer with instant 
meals, get ahead on the laundry, get your photos printed, 
make a space on the scrapdesk & start your engines!

If you want more practical advice,
see my previous pre-LOAD post HERE.

    That's the best thing about LOAD, you are giving yourself permission to make scrapbooking a priority! Can't wait to see what you make!

    Can't the family just turn their clothes inside out and wear them twice? Really, laundry? :)

    I am looking forward to it. I guess my crock pot will be getting a lot of use during Load :)

    I look like a total bobble-head right now as I'm nodding in agreement to everything you wrote! And I'm lovin' "scrapspace" and "scrapstash" - two more to add to the LOADster dictionary :)

    I have the advantage that I will be here by myself for half the month so I don't even have to worry about someone moaning that there's no food on the table! Hoping to complete a full monht again - I was bummed not to finish in October!

    You gals and your cooking ahead is making me think I better work on that task in the week ahead myself. I can't WAIT!

    Rotisserie chicken from the deli is a great way to go to! I need to do some food prep before Feb. 1st.

    I have 10 freezer meals ready to go, and I'm making another 10 on Feb 11 at a freezer meal workshop with friends. GREAT tip!
