Not going to CHA? Post here!

[Joan B]

Me either.

Think of all the stuff we can buy with the $$ we are not spending going to CHA. (that's the best I can come up with to feel better!).

I'm with you, Joan. Besides - CKC Houston was just last week and I'm still trying to figure out what I bought. *laugh*

I'm not able to go this time either, Joan. I really meant to, but I swear the time is flying and the dates just got away from me! EEK! I'm not able to take the time off of work. Maybe this winter?

I'm not going and am feeling a bit sorry for myself that it seems like I am the only person in papercraftdom that has never ever been to CHA! Each time CHA rolls around I feel like a loser all over again! LOL! Just kidding, well maybe a tiny bit.
Yes, saving $$$ is good. I don't need anything right now anyway and I know if I was at CHA I'd for sure find something I "need".

I'm not going this year and I *really* wanted to. <pout> But I guess it's a good thing because we had a large unexpected cash outlay this week when DS decided that he wanted to visit the ER, the oral surgeon, and the orthodontist. :rolleyes:

Even if I had been planning to go, I would have felt too guilty to go now.

I've never been either, Brenda. And I'm not going this time either, but I have a new little one to cuddle so I'm not missing out on anything. I'd rather be cuddling him. I do always love seeing the new stuff coming out, though. We should start a thread of sneak peeks. I know October Afternoon peeked one of their new lines on their blog:
October Afternoon: SNEAK PEEK #1
My Mind's Eye has some photos of their new lines, too:

I've never been either. My weekend to work. Not only will I be saving money--I'll be making money!! I'll just have to keep telling myself that

I want to go to a CHA! I have never been to one, and I have been scrapping for 4 years! I think it's in Anaheim, CA (January 2011). I am planning on going
I have been to a Scrapbook Expo, but never a CHA. Has anyone ever been to a Scrapbook Expo? Are they the same thing? There's a Scrapbook Expo this October in Ontario (near Redlands, Ca - I think), is anyone going to that??
