Since were in the blizzard I took advantage of my free time and make a notebook for myself since I'm starting a new job this week. I wanted it to reflect the office feel since I'll be in the office. I used October Afternoon's 9-to-5 line! The book was originally a kids notebook from Michaels that was in the clearance section.

We all have tough subjects to scrapbook, wouldn't you agree? For me, mine is scrapbooking my parents. They died when I was 19 and it's taken me awhile to learn to live with it. My "new normal" as I call it. I finished my mini album of my mom, took me 11 years but I was "happy" while working on it and didn't shed one tear. It truly was a big stepping stone for me.
