classes

I seem to have minor addiction problem...to scrapbook classes! Especially online! I signed up for LOAD again because I soooo enjoyed it. That's all of May! Now I just signed up for Spring Training with Ella Publishing from April 25 - May 7th ! Like I have time for that then!!!???
I guess there are worse addictions but it is a problem for me!

Now if I can just figure out how to add a blinkie to show off my problem??!

You can do Anything but not Everything!

"I've been thinking a lot about this lately, and the more I think about it my heart pounds and my head tells me it's true. I believe each one of us is  capable of anything, it's just that we can't do everything all at once. There are so many things I want to do, and there are days when I feel like I just might be able to pull it off.....and then there are days when I know I simply can't. It's a constant balancing act. We like to look at others and assume that everyone is doing it better than us, that somehow they are doing everything. No one is. The real question is what choices do we make each day that allow us to do the things we want to do the most. Where do our passions lie and what are we willing to sacrifice to accomplish success in those areas. I am working on trying to figure that out for myself. I'm trying to be confident in what I can do and o.k. with what I can't do right now. Realizing that I have not failed, if I have failed at doing it all. I have actually succeeded at doing what I have consciously chosen to do, and done it well. 

Let's all choose to accomplish one thing today, do it well...

then sit down and be Happy.

Darci"

I love Darci, she is my scrap idol's little sister and she is adorable. I found this on her blog a few days aga and it really struck me!!! It is so true!!
I especially like her comment on 'I have actually succeeded at doing what I have consciously chosen to do, and done it well. " So even if I chose to have a relaxing day, if I am stressing about all I should be doing I am not relaxing well. 
Think I will print this quote up and put it some where all can see. It is so true!

Little thoughts on LOAD..to be continued!

I am loving LOAD too! Although is my first time. I found your blog there. Your LO's are beautiful and I enjoy visiting  you here on your blog!
I also took Heidi's class and every time I scrap I remind myself...glue and go...glue and go! It has been such a help to me to actually get things done!
The above is what I posted on Recklinghausen's Musings blog. She had said how she hadn't gotten so much faster and less perfectionist after Heidi's class! I am not sure I was ever such a perfectionist but I did have trouble completing pages. I was always worried it wasn't good enough!
Good enough for who?!! If I liked it that should be all that matters and most of the time I go with that now!
