I get the sense that I'm not alone here... icon_smile.gif My husband is wondering what happened to me! I guess I should give myself a time limit or something, or I'll never escape! Ha!

I don't spend that much time here, so I don't have time to read all the posts, but I definitely check back over a dozen times a day and try to respond to as many posts as I can, and check out some photos. This is probably like the 20th time today I've been on here! lol.

It is embarassing to admit how addicted I am to this site. Usually the first thing I do in the morning and the last thing I do at night is to get on this site and at least look to see what new photos have been posted.

It's a good thing we are a multi computer family! If we weren't the kids or the DH wouldn't have a chance!

OMG! I'm sooo very addicted. I get on here at leat 20 times a day probably. I've learned a lot and it keeps me from freaking out when I can't figure out something on my own. And I LOVE looking at other ppl's cakes...to get ideas and to push myself harder.

I'm glad I'm not the only addict.

I usually log onto this site when I get to work at 11pm and check on it regularly until 7 am when I get done. My coworkers think Im a bit off but they enjoy devouring what I bring in. I check about once or twice a day on my days off. This is the best resource next to books I have found for decorating. And I am glad I found it.

I've just been here 45 minutes and it feels like 5! And this is my second time today. oops!

But I'm learning so much. I have about a million new things on my list to try out.

I can't get anything else done anyway today. My daughter has a bad cold and I'm sitting next to her. Hope she gets better soon!

I have honestly found this site to be totally addicting. I am new to cake decorating. I will actually be taking Course I starting July 11th. I just happen to stumble across it one afternoon while looking at wedding cakes. I have a facination for beautiful wedding cakes.

Anyway, this site is wonderful with such great, helpful and generous ladies.

Hi Polishmommy,

I hope your little girl feels better soon. Don't you just feel so helpless when your kids are sick?

HA ha! At least I'm not alone! I am so grateful I found a hobby that I'm passionate about and can work to get better at. Whenever my husband used to spend time on his hobbies, I would get so bored - but now we can happily work alongside each other, and now I can understand why he needs his hobbies too. It's therapeutic, relieving, challenging, and fun!

I AM addicted! I check back constantly to look at the new pictures that have been posted. I have seen every picture on this site more than twice. I get disappointed sometimes when I check back and there aren't any new photos. Hopefully the addiction will wear off so I can get back on top of housework! shhh.gif

Another addict here. My husband is enabling me by buying several new decorating books. I am having so much fun! I love seeing all the new pictures and wish I had the time to respond to everyone. My kids (who are 2 and 5) have a different agenda though. icon_biggrin.gif
