Default WHOO-EEE, All Day Project
I bit off more than I could chew, but I chewed it anyway. Whew.

I had at some point sorted out all the newspaper clippings I'd saved over the years, and divided out the ones of family members. Today I decided to divide out the ones of my granddaughter (she's 20).

Then I got the bright idea to tidy them up, trim them, stick them on sheets of paper, add little clipart thingies, makes copies for my daughter, put them in order, etc. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Actually, it WAS a good idea, but it literally took me all day! I ended up with 54 pages, most pages with more than one article, sometimes three or four. My fingers won't bend, my eyeballs are spinning, and my brain is hollow. And my copier is really ticked off at me!

But I did it! I did it! I finished a project! Yay me!

I didn't let MS win, but I think it was a tie

It's turned chronic on me...now I'm sorting through my photos, trying to get the family tree sorted by limb, sending duplicates and similars off to other relatives, etc. It never ends. Well, except when I die, of course.

When you're done, how about coming to Pittsburgh to help me! You will be an expert by then.
