As a spin off to the poll . . .

[AddictedScrapper]

As a spin off to my "how many LOs in a week" poll, do you set a yearly goal and keep track of how many LOs you create?

I never did before this year but I figured this year it would be neat to see how many I do complete since I've gone digi. I had set a VERY small goal of 25 LOs for the year and well I'm around 150 LOs so far this year (I say around because I've missed one here and there). At the beginning of the year I thought I was only going to scrap traditional and I never really did many of them, so that's why my goal is so low. But now with digi, I've been a scrapping machine LOL

[newfiemountiewife]

I set a goal this year of 100 LOs. I have no many I have. Hold on, I'll go check LOL

ETAI just checked DST and I have 164 posted there. I think that there may be a couple that I didn't bother to post as well.

[Nikki Epperson]

I never set a goal b/c I just started in February. So it will be interesting to see how many I complete next year as compared to this year.

[Linz]

Well, I just started in May so I never set an actual goal. I've scrapped about 220 since I started though.

[nikkiARNGwife]

I started scrapping and uploading to DST in 2005 according to my gallery there I have 860 pages!! Man I never realized it was so many...now ask me how many of those are printed and in albums lol!

[jessica31876]

OMGosh!! That is ALOT!! No I do not set a goal...I pretty much do what I can. I did set a goal for this month to try to do one a day. I dont think Ill do it though I missed like five days.

I don't set a goal for myself. But I did just look and I have about 167 LO's from this year here at SSD. I also have about 20-30 LOs elsewhere from this year that I can't post here.

[Darcy Baldwin]

I haven't ever set goals digitall (I did when I paper scrapped), but I have slowed down tremendously since doing fonts. Much of my scrappy time is taken up doing customer orders or creating new products or maintenance stuff, so I do far fewer layouts now than before.

[~Julie~]

Nope I don't set a goal. I figure I will get done what I can when I can. I wouldn't even know what a realistic goal was anyway. Lol

[clearskies]

I am also a newbie, so I don't have a goal as of now. I think I need to set one though... 1, since I'm a goal sort of person and 2, to justify the insane amount of time I spend on my computer...

[Amber1279]

my goal was 365 ... but I have been doing so much Hybrid I don't think I will make it.

[maryinaz]

About the 3rd year I was paper scrapping, I set a goal of 365 for one a day and got to 373. I've never been able to reach that level again.

But now that I've been digi-scrapping, I've picked up steam again and have done 60 since the end of June.

[nesser1981]

I don't set goals, I just try to stay caught up and try to get everything printed. That being said, I'm caught up through April 2008, still need to print March and April, but they're scrapped. Ready for my total so far this year?

373 pages. Now, keep in mind 137 of those are from March, Cooper was a newborn, my mom visited, Sean's parents came, both Sean and celebrated birthdays and Easter was all thrown in there.

I want to say I average about 50 pages a month, since Cooper was born.

I think my total last year was about 380 for the entire year.

WOW Vanessa that's AMAZING!

[Stacey42]

I do keep track of how many pages I scrap, and what kits along with designer names, that I used. I love data.

I had a goal in 2006 to scrap 150 pages in a year and I managed 172. That's the most I ever scrapped in a year. Last year was 133 & I'm currently working on layout 98.

[mrshobbes]

I want to set a yearly goal, maybe next year. It never occurred to me to do so. I checked my personal gallery and while last year I only did 13, this year I'm up to about 85 I learned sooooo much just by hanging out in the forums and with my CTs! (last year I muddled through and didn't lurk in forums at all)

[crystalbella77]

I do not have a goal and have never set one. I have no idea how many I have done and I am afraid to check! lol!

[rach3975]

Wow, some of you are FAST! I don't set a yearly goal. I want scrapping to stay fun, not become a source of stress because I'm trying to reach a certain number. A while ago I added up how many LOs I'd done in 4 years of digiscrapping, and it worked out to about 150 a year. But within that 4 years there has probably been a lot of variability due to pregnancy/young babies/breaks from scrapping, etc. This year has probably been my most productive yet, so I'm curious to see how many I end up with. It won't lead to me setting future goals, it's just fun to know.

[jaylensmom]

i just wanted to complete more layouts than i did last year...although i haven't been really keeping track with all the challenges here i know i've definitely done more than last year...

[mrs_jb]

I didn't set one, because I started in Feb of this year. To date I'm at around 230 LO's and I'll probably set a 2009 goal of at least 250.

[Kat Stokes]

I don't really set a goal but I've done about 94 pages this year so far.

[Megan Turnidge]

Whoa! I'm a scrapping machine! lol! I've done 25 hybrids and 100 pages this year. I've actually done about 15 more pages than that, but never posted them online b/c they were pages with other people in them and I didn't have permission to post online. Wow. That is a lot of scrapping.

I don't set goals. I just make sure I get my CT requirements done (8 LOs and 3 hybrids each month) and then do more than that... and do some challenges. So, it really adds up! The book I print in Decemeber is going to be THICK!
