this site!!! I'm sitting here yawning, barley holding my eyes open yet I can't seem to get off this site to go to bed! I love this website and y'all will probably think I'm crazy but I'm printing out many of y'alls tips and recipes and I'm writing down things...LOL...My husband thinks I need to seek AA for my "Cake Central" addiction!!

I totally agree with you about being addicted. I check my computer like a thousand times a day just to see if some new interesting topic has made it into the forum. Its gotten so "bad", my husband now joins in and has his own handle. Dont know whats worse, having this addiction, or being encouraged!! icon_biggrin.gif

What is it about this site??? I too am addicted and I'm really a sewing person at heart! Now I'm taking Wilton I and I'm eye-balling every cake I see! I need to lose weight but I can't wait to make my next cake, I'm sleep deprived and I even kick my kids off the computer 'just to see'. My one son actually drew me a picture of a cake he thought I might like to try decorating!!! I think there is something within the monitor that is drawing us in!!!!!!

I am soooooooooooooooooo addicted, I agree we are all going to need CC Anonymous icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif This site has been very helpful to me also...and I'm always wanting to check the site from work and see what's going on. It's 6:15 in the morning here and I'm already sitting at the computer. I woke up and my mind just went straight to CC I was like "I wonder what got posted overnight let me see". O.k. that's an addiction.... icon_lol.gif That's bad.....gotta get ready for work, have a wonderful day everyone or evening depending on what part of the world your on....

Keep on baking everybody!!!!

My alarm clock didn't go off this morning plus I didn't get in bed last night because I was here on CC til 1 a.m. My neice & nephew (who come over here every morning to catch the bus) were pounding on my window to wake me up. By the time I woke up I had 5 minutes to get my kids ready and on the bus. I knew there was no way I could do it and I felt horrible ~ not because the kids would miss the bus and I would have to drive them to school BUT because I couldn't get on CC for at least another hour icon_lol.gificon_lol.gificon_lol.gif . I was soooo disappointed. Turns out, the kids got dressed fairly quickly and the bus was 10 minutes late. As they were walking to the bus, I headed outside to our study room/building and here I am. icon_lol.gif

I started a post yesterday called ~~~~~Confession Time~~~~~~ because I was feeling really down about being so "addicted". I had to force myself to get busy in the house. I thought about banning myself from CC until I got some work done icon_cry.gificon_cry.gificon_cry.gif . Anyway, it helped tremendously just to "get it off my chest". There truly is freedom in confession. Funny thing is ~ I told my DH about it all. I think he was relieved just knowing that I realize just how "highly addited" I am. I love my DH thumbs_up.gif !

Steady2Hands-I am a stay at home mom and I have a system, kinda. I will work for about an hour then I can have 10-15 minutes to do what I want (like check CC). I do that all day and I get everything done and take care of my 1 year old and get my CC fix icon_lol.gif

Dustbunny ~ 10-15 minutes at a time? Yikes icon_cry.gif . I seriously do need to find a way to be so disciplined.

Hey Dustbunny ~ I made it 2 hours ~ Yeah! I got a lot done. Now if I could get a few more loads of laundry done (which I have some washing and drying right now thumbs_up.gif ) then I'll be very satisfied. I even put a roast in the crockpot. thumbs_up.gif . Actually for the last hour, I spent part of it talking to my sister who lives out of town, and the rest of the time I spent with my MIL. She stopped by for a visit. Good thing the house was clean icon_lol.gif !

Good job, I knew you could do it!! I did some cleaning, fed the baby breakfast and then went to Hobby Lobby to use the 50% off coupon, it was so much fun icon_smile.gif
