But I am in SCRAP gear and look forward to 2014!! By: ScrapHappyGabi Date: December 23, 2013, 11:51 am --------------------------------------------------------- Good Morning! I know most of you have NO clue who I am but I have a few really good friends here that invited me back a while ago!! I am quiet mostly, struggling with Ovarian Cancer and chemo but... good news is they got it ALL and I had NO lymph involvements. My challenge mostly is the chemo which kicks my butt and keeps me tired, weak and fatigued most days. Scrapping keeps my mind focused on the positive and I am starting to feel like it's time to start scrapping my journey! The colour of the ribbon for my particular cancer is Teal! I love it!! I am enjoying the last few days before Christmas - I actually have more days than you do since we're doing our family Christmas on the 29th!! I just wish the chemo didn't steal my taste buds --- I want to taste the holiday goodness! BUT BONUS!! no weight gain for me this year ! LOL I'm down 30 and counting!! Hugs and kisses and Christmasy Wishes to all!! XGABI! X #Post#: 29618-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!!

Hang in there and hopefully we'll be back in full swing after the new year. #Post#: 29620-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me..

I think scrapping is a great therapy it relaxes us and let our minds go where we are happy. Merry Christmas to you Gabi ! #Post#: 29626-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!! By: SherrieScraps Date: December 31, 2013, 9:22 am --------------------------------------------------------- Nice to meet you Gabi, I hope you have a good prognosis after you finish the chemo. My DH had pancreatic cancer and he lost a lot of weight too. Remember to drink lots of water to flush out the chemo chemicals! I hope to get back into scrapping after the first of the year too. I had a appendectomy in November and it really set me back a bit. I do have lots of new photos to scrap and want to get started! Happy New Year everyone! #Post#: 29666-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!! By: ScrapHappyGabi Date: January 4, 2014, 10:45 am --------------------------------------------------------- Lynn, Barb and Sherrie! HAPPY NEW YEAR! Thanks for replying to my post :) I'm LOVING the creative stuff I'm seeing around here and wanting to get my butt busy! I'm a creative scrapper and also have started playing with Project Life - I also love Smash Books, traditional 12x12, 8x8 and altered stuff... Im all over the place. With my current issues I'm finding Project Me easy and creatively satisfying at the same time lol Anyone else loving Project Life? I'm gonna play today- It's too dang cold to go out! HA! ~G #Post#: 29690-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!! By: SherrieScraps Date: January 5, 2014, 12:40 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I bought PL stuff but haven't used any of it except for a few of the cards on a regular layout. I want to add those PL pages into my regular scrapbooks with the many pictures that I don't scrap. You know, you have a party and you take a dozen great pictures. Rather than scrap them all, I'd like to scrap a couple and then put the rest in to the PL style layout. We will see! #Post#: 29717-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!! By: maddawg Date: January 5, 2014, 8:21 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I love the PL stuff but my life is way to boring on a daily basis to actuall do it. #Post#: 29734-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!! By: Resa Date: January 5, 2014, 8:39 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I have lots and LOTS of PL stuff. but I think I have only ever used it for quickie cards. I have been very out of the loop for quite a while myself Gabi. I am trying to jump start myself back into this too. I truly love to create this stuff, but find my time seriously lacking. I decided to take a break from teaching scrap classes this month so maybe I can do some stuff on my own for me and my family. then maybe I will be more creative again. the classes I am forced to teach are really poor and I really hate to teach them. They zap my creative spark. #Post#: 29762-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me.. But I am in SCRAP gear and look forw ard to 2014!! By: Jessica Date: January 6, 2014, 5:24 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Good for you! It's good to keep your mind focused and what's more fun then scrapping. :) #Post#: 29908-------------------------------------------------- Re: Lots going on with me..

I hope everyone is well and staying warm!! I love PL.. I don't do it the traditional week by week way... I can't keep up with it to do that so I just do it like regular scrapping. I could try to it week by week but I would seriously fail LOL!!!! xx G *****************************************************
