Origin:
Lindseys Scraps {of the book and of life).
I didn't really know what I was doing, didn't have a hook. So I encompassed a large body of info to share. My key word was "little" - like me. Almost all of the first 5 months of my posts had "little" in the title.
The Midnight Scrapper
I soon figured out that my most profitable scrapbooking time was after my husband left for work. I would start after he walked out the door at 10pm and I would stay up all hours. How easy life was with just one little baby!
The Practical Scrapper
June, 2008
Next, I realized what a literal and practical scrapper I was (still am). I couldn't use butterflies on a layout without outside photos. I couldn't use wings on a page without pictures on that subject. No sand without beach, no green without grass, no clouds without... well, you get the point.
Better When Choreographed
Finally, I'm discovering that I am a leader, but not a boss. I need to be choreographed (never did like improv). The Bible, first and foremost, guides who I am. Who He is is who I should try to be. When I played piano, I was best when practiced and in concert.I love theatre, that's a given. In gymnastics, everything I did was choreographed; even my back-up plans were, at least, planned. I cling to lesson plans when I teach. I use schedules with the kids. Not to say I'm not spontaneous, but I'm better when choreographed.
