Right now, I'm sorting,cleaning,scrubbing the basement out (my new studio area) and it's taking so much energy! Geez...It's not finished but I still work down there. My main objective is to make it mostly safe for the little ones and make it less dusty for my allergies. I'll probably post some inbetween pics of the process...it's scary. ;) I can totally relate.

I get very sidetracked too, as I dig down and come across half started/finished projects. I take heart from the story I heard on NPR the other day that claimed that chaos spawns innovaton, because of the very process of finding things and getting new ideas as you try and clean up! :) I have been “cleaning off” my desk for over a year, and organizing my space, and getting rid of stuff-ha, that one’s the funniest.
