Digging Deep to Scrapbook Difficult Times
Our beloved cat died in 2002. Last night I could finally bring myself to begin working on the layout that I wanted to create about him.
It all started when I was digging under my desk to untangle the mess of wires that seems to have a life of its own. When I was underneath my desk on my hands and knees (nice visual, I know), I found a tablet that I had written down some of my favorite memories of my cat the week he died.
I’ve been using that missing tablet as an excuse for not working on the layout for years. Now that I had the tablet - my excuse evaporated.
Why is it so difficut to scrapbook the moments in our life that are painful? Even when there are things I want to say, and want to record, I still procrastinate.
The layout is now started - the photos have been chosen, the list of memories typed in… I’m sure I’ll be glad I did it when it’s complete…
