Thanks! Hubs said originally I could do it when he got to the control room because we would supposedly have enough funds lol... We just didn't know the raise would take 6-8 months to kick in.

BUT, I'm gonna start small. I have a lot of equipment I need to purchase before this is doable. Including trying to buy the cricut off my sister by convincing her she doesn't want it anymore.

Turn into an ebay fanatic, catmama 911 got one for 75 bucks with 2 carts a couple of months ago.  Also black friday at michaels they usually sell the carts for 30 bucks.  I loaded up last year.

HHMM I wonder which one that is.  I'll have to pay attention next time I go.  I try to avoid the paper aisle b/c I'm not kidding I have so much freaking paper I'll be crafting until I'm 90 and not need to buy any more.  I'm already wanting the BG lines.  It's a sickness.

I still frequent 2peas.  Not as much as I used to though since it got blocked at work.  2peas is how I found this site.  I'll have to check out those other blogs too.

I don't really have a favorite anything. I haven't scrapbooked in about a year or more, but I have finished at least 4 scrapbooks, and have at least 3-4 in progress.

My problem is that I had a really good scrapbooking buddy. We would get together once a week, and we just flew through the stuff. I was completely up to date with everything of the kids. Then the biotch had to go and move to California. It just wasn't the same without her. I tried joining another scrapbooking group, but the only women who could come every time were total twat waffles that I couldn't stand. So now the pictures have piled up for like 3 years and I don't think I will ever catch up...

There was a site that I was on years ago that used to do a virtual crop.  You set a time and date and then everyone crops at the same time.  You can post questions or ideas on a thread as you go if you want.  When you are done you post a finished layout or tell what you got done.  Neat little way to crop with friends.

I love my cricut.  I use it for school too.  I just packed it in storage since I had to clean out the hobby room.  I will have a nice little set up at the new house and I can start M's book.  She is only 9 months old.  I have it done in my head.

I used to sell for Top Line Creations.  Not actively or anything since you only had to sell $25 a year to remain active.  I mostly bought for myself.  They closed and now are called Breezy designs.  I like some of their paper packs.  I am not much on premade stuff but their paper coordinates so wonderfully with their stuff and it works when you  have a lot to do.

I want a hobby area so badly. Sigh.

We simply do NOT have the room. The only actual place I could put it would be in our unfinished garage, and its so humid here that would ruin the paper. I just want a corner for mommy scrap space... But as it stands? Its all still at my parents house. I refuse to bring more crap in here until after my garage sale next month.

I would LOVE to have a scrap/hobby area!!!! Nickle has a cute little set-up. It's always fun to go over to her house and scrap!! but we have to schedule it around the kids and daycare... so we don't get to do it often...
