Slowing Down

I think I need to slow down on the crocheting. I've been getting joint pain in my elbow and my wrist the last few times I've picked up a project and it lasts for a good day or two afterward. I'm bummed because I go through crocheting spurts...sometimes I have no want to do it and then there are times when I don't want to put it down. I'm in one of those times right now but I think it's best if I give it a rest for a little while. Maybe I'll try my hand at scrap booking. I've never done it before and I got a starter kit as a gift at one of my baby showers so I'm thinking of giving it a try. I have tons of pictures of Lauryn and I'd love to make her a cute scrap book but I'm not really sure where to start with all of that. I know a few people who do it though so I guess I should start by asking them for some ideas :)
