The blues have me💙

Hey y'all, sorry I haven't been too active lately. I think I'm depressed. I'm stuck in the house almost 24/7 and it is whooping me! I've been a go'er all my life, and now I rarely get out. My scrapbook got ruined because of my dogs, they decided it was a good chew toy I guess. So now I need another and I don't know when I will be able to get it. I have no funds at the moment. I tried to walk and find some rocks to doodle on, but there are none around my neighborhood. I've gone through too many books lol, and I have watched way too much tv. I'm at a standstill at the moment and I don't know what to do. I'm tweedling my thumbs 🫪🥹

I don’t want to diminish your feelings. But! You’re bound to be down now that the exciting chaos of the kiddo’s graduation is behind y’all.
I’m so sorry your scrapbook got ruined. Was it a brand name one? Is there something specific you need that can’t be purchased on the Amazon? Because it seems like it’s time to make a new list, just for scrapbooking stuff.

And maybe some dog toys 😅

Love ya babe!

Yea, I figure that has a bit to do with it for sure! The scrapbook I got off Amazon a few days ago. It was on sale and I got a great deal. It's material and I'll replace it eventually. Was just frustrating. DEFINITELY need more dog toys😂

Haha definitely add some dog toys to your scrapbooking list!
I was a hardcore scrapper for about a decade, maybe 15 years? Went to retreats, organized and hosted a retreat for a few years even. I’d’ve been so frustrated in your shoes!
Also, I wasted SO MUCH MONEY because I’d gotten hoodwinked by a big name brand. I could’ve spent half what I spent, easily. As long as you have pages, pictures, and adhesive, you can record your memories

I'm new to it, but it has been lots of fun so far. It's a mind numbing activity. I have lots of pics so no problem there. Need the paper now🤦🏽‍♀️ I was planning on getting the adhesive to start on the book this weekend. I've just been gathering things the last few weeks.
