Scrap-ADD.

For real. I have at least 4 projects in various stages of completion. And 15 or so layout ideas in my head.
But when I sit down to start (or finish) something. Instant shrinking of my attention span. Oh and my mojo seems to be attached to my attention span, cuz I'll move bits and pieces around for a good 2 minutes without any luck, and then get distracted by something else.

Oy. I'm starting to get frustrated with it.

LMAO... scrap-ADD!

Yeah, I think it's just part of being a creative person. I'm the same way, I have two album ideas in my head, different pages started, and coffee tumblers in various stages of completion. It's a sickness I tell ya!

I don't have kids or a pool to distract me. I'm pathetic, LOL!

Reminds me of the Robin Williams skit (from Live on Broadway) where he's talking about Bush and says "We are working on.....oooh look at the kitty!" So my life right now, lol!

I have the same problem. I start scraping & then have a burning need to check the boards, which sends me off on other tangents. Then I do a bit more, then I simply *must* sort the laundry, then look something up, then find an element, then I decide to change how I have things tagged, then I'm back on the web....

It's works when I try to bake a cake. I end up reorganizing about half the cabinets in the house because I cannot initially find one of my blender blades. Three hours later the kitchen is clean, the pantry has everything lined up and stacked together and there is still no cake made. :)

Christine, not to freak you out, but you need 30 pts, lol.

Use your CT stuff for challenges, that's what I try and do :)
