Oh my goodness, I keep saying just look at one more post and get to work. Then I return to the home page and again, "Just one more post." You all have so many wonderful ideas to share and so many beautiful cakes to look at, I can't stop icon_cry.gif

I can write my name in the dust, the floors need to be swept, I need to get in the shower, I need to go to the fabric store and buy a zipper so I can make a mold of it for a purse cake order and yet I JUST CAN"T HIT THE DISCONNECT button and leave CC!!! It's a disease!!!

Ha ha ha ha I'm the same way!! I can't stop looking at cake pictures and reading posts. I have to fight over the computer with my son and my husband thinks I spend way too much time on here! Oh well, such is life and cakes are a part of my life that I don't want to give up. I dream of someday making the most fantastic cake that everyone drools over and they don't want to cut. There are so many fantastic decorators here on CC and they all give us inspiration and push us long so that we may have a fantastic cake

Guilty! I've just spent 3 day looking over an old thread about posting your worst cake photos. I'm addicted. This is the funniest stuff. I love it!

To make things worse, I was so engrossed in CC that I forgot to go pick up my next student and he just walked in (10 minutes late). Have no fear parents- he is an ESL student who is leaving the country Friday.

I'm supposed to be cleaning my house today (laundry, vacuum, etc) so I'll have minimal maintenance for the next week! Starting this evening, I'll be busy baking and or decorating for 7 days straight!!! I have a fundraiser and 3 3D cakes due every other day starting Friday!!! Super exciting and stressful at the same time.
BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOO, I JUST COULDN'T RESIST GETTING ON HERE AND SEEING WHAT'S GOING ON!!!!!!!!
My CC addiction is second only to my addiction to sweets!!! I see CC as an investment in my future business!!!!! icon_biggrin.gif

Hey sugarlaced...that's what I just finished doing! Gross!!! icon_sad.gif Living with 3 males is a dirty job!!

So this is my reward...spending a few quality minutes, just me and CC. Aaahhhhh...we make the PERFECT couple! icon_biggrin.gif

I remember the first time I came across this website and the very first thing I remember is the sign that read: "Caution! This website is very addicting" and I thought...how cute and clever. If only I had heeded the warning.... icon_rolleyes.gif

Trust me....I keep trying to leave for lunch, and everytime I start to get up, I click the home page and see a new post to reply to or look at. Then, of course I have to take a peek at the newest photos!!!!!!

ARGGGG.....I, too, did not head the WARNING noting that this website is highly addictive. Who would have ever known.......

I'm trying to pull myself away so I can go shower. If this site was just inactive for like 5 minutes it's be a little easier, however I'd probably just start looking at pic's.
