Jenn says that I have my own store for her in the back room. I have a paper problem too.
But, I am refusing to buy any more scrapbooking supplies until I use what I have. I have paper ....so much paper....

I was telling George about your FIL the other night. One of his father's friends died last week at the age of 92. He was a full Colonel and was one of the Flying Tigers. George and Chris had been meaning to visit him for the past few months and never made it. Our history is passing away around us.

I've almost finished straightening up and reorganizing and getting rid of lots of PBs. It actually made me a little depressed looking at all the "crap" I've accumulated. I have adopted the USE YOUR STASH mantra for 2012 and only buy what I am going to use - and get rid of some stuff.
A few months ago I started putting some leftovers, not my style etc. items in a PB and bag. I freecycled it - the woman who picked it up was over the moon! "you must be a scrapbooking pro" HA HA Lots of times I save up for a friend who teaches seniors art and runs a "girls club" camp type event (week long during the summer, then just a day for certain holiday like Valentines) and she appreciates the extras! Then I feel good about getting rid of it!
Jennifer and I are doing the
