Boy it is quiet in here..........
wonder where everyone is?
packing maybe?
Sorting photos?
GETTING FREAKIN' EXCITED?!!!
Tomorrow Tiff, Meredith, Sue, me and a band of merry men will trek to NS to do some setting up - big day planned so we can be more organized for Friday.
Will let you in on a secret too. Note to self - do not pack the goodie bags prior to arriving at the venue. Kluger is PACKED TO THE HILT with 50 odd bags with ZERO room for anything other retreat wise let alone anything of mine (sleeping gear, clothes or scrap gear).
Lucky we are coming back tomorrow night so i can sort myself out!!
Would love some comments here on how you think you will spend your weekend at the retreat. How many pages you would like to achieve (set yourself a bit of a goal and see if you can reach it) and your ETA down there. Maybe you could also say WHY you are looking forward to it so much? What do you think will be the best bit?
I know reading about others arriving and thinking about the good time that they plan on having will make me really excited about it all!

VERY excited about my first retreat... have no goals as I'm not sure what to expect! Plan on arriving at 3.59pm on the dot with Zan & Trace. So I'd better get packing... sad but true, haven't organised my photos yet - AAGH!! I'll be burning the midnight oil tonight... see you in two sleeps!!
Hi Amanda
Yes is it is quiet in here isnt it?
I am so excited!.. I have just packed my gear.. Talk about drama! lol
How to pack as much as you can into containers that refuse to stretch!!
I am looking forward to spending time with a great bunch of girls... putting faces to names... learning new things...and having a lot of laughs! I have printed off quite a few photos as I am hoping to get heaps achieved.. but knowing me.. I will be talking too much to get anything done lol.
see all you girls there! woo hoo!
oh e.t.a?
I'll be the one in front elbowing Julie, Zan and Trace out of the way!
lol
hi all
mmmm yes amanda, I have been sorting photos, got mine organised yesterday and ordered online from rabbit so will pick them up tomorrow [and yay that Im not the only disorganised one going, wow some of you gals are just so bloody organised.packed already????? holy moly...] .Heading to lincoln tomorrow as have a to do list, also a few more bits and pieces for the retreat, and other stuff too.
This will be the 1st time Ive ever packed to scrap, or scrapped with others, so I will probably just sit and stare at everyone else doin their LOs.
Im working till 2 friday so not sure what time Ill be there....but I will be there.....
LOL girls with the elbowing. We may need a wrestling referee at the door.
seriously, we are all getting soooo excited.
Big day setting up Thursday. Cant wait to see how it looks in real life instead of trying to imagine it.
oh Julie.
expect lots of fun, chat, cheese, the odd class (glass) or two, late nights and maybe a wee bit of scrapping in between.
PS dont forget the panadol.

Hi Girls, yes, I collected my 2nd big batch of photos yesterday (Hi Karen ... I ran into Amanda too ... Howdy A!) so a lot of stuff to work with - but I'll probably be like Mary and sit and watch others in admiration as I haven't scrapped much at all yet! I stocked up on drinks and nibbles, my bags are packed, I'm ready to go (isn't that a song!?) I'm really looking forward to the weekend, it sounds like a great bunch of girls that are going along - I can see lots of fun times, catching up, learning lots ... and starting my kids albums (yay - only 5.5 years of photos to go!).
Oh, ETA ... Marika and I should be there around 5'ish all going well sorting out our 7 kids / 2 hubbies!
Cya all tomorrow !!
Kylie S
Bags packed just nibbles and drinks to go, kids sorted. Have sorted out about 15 or so layouts, would be stoked to get that many done but last year I only did about 7 (had only been scrapping for 6 months then). I am expecting very little sleep, alot of laughter, alot of procrastinating with my scrapping efforts and very much fun. Can't wait!! ETA 3:50pm so we can beat sandra!!! Expect to see three supposedly adult women thundering towards the shed door in their eagerness just to be there!!! Tracey
I can't bloody wait. No kids, no husband, no meals to cook, no mass of dishes to do, no sweeping, no washing, no rules, no "Muuuuummmmm!!!" - these are a few of my favourite things (I think that is a song!)
I don't care if I don't get any scrapping done and just a heap of procrastinating, I'll be there for the chatting and ideas (look out Karen) and buying with my bells on!
Yippidy dippidy doo.... I'm excited.
Am very excited two days no kids and some of that long awaited me time. Was going to condense my stash but decided I didn't want to put it back where it belongs when I get back so I think I may need my stash in the car.Am no good at making kits up. Can't wait.
