How I spent my day

I am embarrassed to admit that I have been stacking my layouts into two boot boxes for the last two years. After Michaels quit carrying the Pioneer D ring albums, I was lost. I began my search for the perfect album and just wasn't finding what I wanted. I bought three D rings from Hobby Lobby but they sat on the shelf mocking me with their emptiness. Several months ago, Jill at Memorable Seasons offered us a deal where we could preorder albums and page protectors from American Crafts for half price. I bought 8! Still, all eleven of my empty albums just sat on the shelf and taunted me. Today, I decided, was the day I was going to do something about it. By now, both boot boxes were full and I had been putting layouts into a laundry basket, too. I brought all of the layouts into my dining room and separated them into piles. I had a pile for each of us individually and a pile for our immediate family and one for extended family. This was a total of seven piles. I did not think to take pictures until I only had two piles left. Believe me, though, the table was covered. Of the books you see in this picture, only two of them has room for more layouts. The rest are full. I only have three empty albums left. I have ten albums full in the closet, too. I'm going to need to build an addition onto the house in a couple of years. LOL I hereby resolve to put my layouts into the album within a reasonable amount of time after they are done from now on. You'll notice that I said reasonable. I am not making any promises that I know I won't keep! Happy New Year, everyone.
