Cleaning out the paper supplies

OMG!  I have way too many supplies for the amount of paper scrapping I do.  I need to clear some of it out.

I'm thinking need to make some time to make this a priority.  One of these days when work isn't keeping me there longer than 9 hours or when I have no plans for my day off.
I need to get it so that it is all contained within the book shelves.  And maybe so there is nothing underneath the desk.

My bins are organized by color.  It really works well for me.  I think my next step is to eliminate some paper and then get into it's correct color box.  We'll see ;)

Project 365

In 2009, I tried to complete a photo a day.  I got all the way through to about the middle or end of August.  August 2009 ending up being a very challenging time for me.  Taking a photo a day was the least of my priorities.  I tired to rebuild myself, but still the photo was day just wasn't one of my priorities.   By time December came, I was doing a little better and was able to have at it again.  I didn't end up taking a photo a day, but I had taken enough to fake it.

In March 2010, I had the first volume of my layouts printed.  I LOVED it!  It was so amazing.  It made me immediately want to do it again.  So I tried again in March. Cosmic failure!

In September 2010, I printed the second half of my collection.  Again I was amazed.  It did remind me of my sadness, but not enough to make me not want to do it again.  So off I go and try it again.  Another total failure.

As 2011 approached I decide that I would do try it again.  And for real this time.  I decided that I would create a simple 12x12 layout using the same template and background paper.  I wasn't going to embellish it.  This was about document 365 days.  This was about the story.

So enter today.  I am up to date on my project 365.  I have successfully created a layout for each week.  Well except for last week.  I'm still waiting on that new pse9.  But it will get done.

PSE 9

So here I am, waiting for pse 9 to download, wondering what new features it will bring me.

Check it out!

At least one more hour of downloading before it's done:(. I need a faster internet connection.

UPDATE:
Somehow I screwed up.  The date on my pc was wrong.  Now I'm not able to access the free trial.  Tring to figure out if I'm just gonna download the full version or buy it from amazon.  Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 (Win/Mac)

UPDATE:  I ordered it through amazon.  I had a gift card that I wanted to use.  Guess I'm gonna have to wait until it comes.  Hopefully it will arrive soon.
