Fall Cleaning

Did some cleaning over the weekend. I think I made myself sick in the process - typical.

Bought some more shoe boxes to put quilt projects in. It's good to have empty boxes, waiting for the projects littering my floor. I marked one whole project on Saturday and started another last night. Cutting them, it's going to be a bitch but I'll do it. I need to make progress with them. I need to get some of this fabric off the floor. It's a distraction when I don't really need it. I need to be writing.

I haven't put pen to paper on "Redemption" or any other story in well over a week. I have, however, written five journal pages today. That's easily double what I normally do. Not sure where that came from.

I have too much stuff. Too much office supplies. I wish I had written down the plan I had. I'll figure it out. I'm just in that mood again lately. Wanting, needing, to be organized but not able to do it at the present moment.

Speaking of organization, I've pretty much talked myself into a new Palm Pilot. Not the expensive one I've been drooling over, but a good starter PDA. I can see all the things I could do with it, but the trick is to actually do something with it once it's set up. Part of the problem the last time was it was connected to my laptop and I don't use it as much anymore. The new one will be parked on the desk so I can see it and use it. I've even started cleaning up the computer desktop to make room. I've also started seeing all the things I can finally catalog. All the lists I could make. Yeah, I know what I'll be buying before the year is out. If it can keep me organized and on task it will be worth it.
