is right now.  Heading off next Tuesday for a week-long trip to sunny California for our CTVW shoot.  SO excited to see everyone again, to talk projects and scrapbooking and crafts, to meet up with Tricia from Club Scrap who’ll be filming some shows too.  Yay!  We had so much fun together the last time that I can’t wait!

This time (the week before) is always crazy.  I inevitably get completely caught up in trying to finish projects and steps and a little thing called "housework" completely leaves my brain.  AND then it makes me crazy because (as my sister and I talked about yesterday) there is a threshold of messiness that I can handle and once the messiness crosses over into the netherworlds?  Ugh.  I can’t create in a super messy environment.  I can handle a semi-messy environment (and remember that my "semi" messy might be your "very" messy).  So then, while needing to create and be creative, all I can think about is cleaning.  It’s a terrible cycle, I tell you!!

So, today is going to be spent doing more steps and playing and trying not to wig out if things around here look like a tornado rushed through…..Wish me luck!!
