And the countdown begins!!! 3 days until we close on our very first home. Thank God, because I don't think I could take a whole lot more of this anticipation/anxiety. This past weekend was spent packing, packing, packing. The only things left to pack are kitchen dishes/utensils, our clothing and bathroom stuff. We're technically not out of this apartment until the end of the month, so it might be a slow process of actually getting the stuff over there. But Saturday morning I woke up (abnormally so) at 5:30 am and decided to "Get To It!". This will be our third time moving in less than a year. When we moved from Minnesota to Sioux Falls, South Dakota last spring, I was much less organized from the get-go. What took me weeks then took me only a mere couple of hours on Saturday.

Another successful day of scrapbooking in the works today. I'd really like to finish my wedding album before "The Big Move" next week (I can't believe it's coming up so soon!). I'm finished with the pages that cover the ceremony portion of the day, and I'm in the process of phasing into the reception.

Every artist needs a studio, right? A couple of months ago I decided that I wanted to get back into scrapbooking, a hobby that I had in high school and hadn't revisited since. I'd been keeping all of my scrapbooking and crafting supplies in under-the-bed storage bins-- every time I considered getting them out to scrapbook, I'd dread the mess that I was going to be left with. So I transformed a section of our guest bedroom into my own personal little "creative space":
The dresser on the left: Top drawer holds scrapbooking mats and papers. Middle drawer has stationary, mailing supplies and specialized printer paper. Bottom drawer holds typical "school supplies": Binders, folders, notebooks, rulers, etc.
Storage container on the right: Top drawer has standard printer paper, 2nd drawer holds cutting supplies, 3rd drawer stamping stuff, 4th drawer bead & jewelry-making supplies, bottom drawer is a menagerie of random craft supplies (everything from random pieces of cardboard to a glue gun.)
