Happy Wind's Day, Piglet. That was one of my favorite lines from the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. To see that loveable bear of very little brain wish Piglet a Happy Wind's Day as the breeze went from gently swaying to lifting pooh Piglet high up into the air... I've watch the video far too many times as a Scrap-At-Home-Mom!
As far as scrapping goes I have not done a lot in the past week. I have half-finished paper piecings sitting on my table with the mulberry paper all fluffy and sweet, just waiting to have the limbs of the bears attached and given tags and titles. My pieces from last week did not sell which leaves me feeling a little deflated. It's hard to get energized to make more when I'm not sure what to make. Hmm... time to get my brain that feels like Pooh Bear's.. full of fluff and stuff... past the doubts and onto the working it out.
Christi urged me to enter some contests today so I did that. Back to the Lottery's slogan... You can't win, if you don't play!
The contests: http://www.creatingpages.biz and http://www.amillionmemories.com
Anything to get me dedicated to scrapping!!
I'm sure everyone goes through stages in their lives where they feel their minds clouded. I am in one of those stages right now. If I just knew what I wanted to do or make or scrap or accomplish, I could do it! Instead I feel like a bear full of very little brain, my head is foggy. I need something to focus on. So, perhaps a contest that does not vote me out but encourages me to accomplish a task each week will get me out of this fogginess and back into a creative zone.
And maybe if I cleaned this scrapping room I might feel more like scrapping, too!! ;-)
This Saturday night I'm having friends over for our monthly scrap night. Wish me luck for getting some of my OWN scrapping done, too. And not worrying about cleaning feverishly in the days beforehand. Are they really going to be inspecting the baseboards??
Have a great week and happy scrapping! Here are my relisted auctions. The boy piece set is changed... I dressed it up...

I think contests and challenges can keep us motivated and push us to sometimes go outside our comfort zone. I work well under pressure so deadlines are a good thing for me otherwise I just procrastinate.
