Stormy Weather....but not enough to get wet....

Morning....

The early morning desert is dark and gray, with heavy clouds hanging low , little wind and a coolest we are not familiar with during this time of the year....all of this drama...yet not a single drop of rain...UGH!  I will not despair as the day is young and we still may get a few 'spits' by days end....keeping fingers crossed...

Today is a good day to clean and reorganize the studio....started yesterday late, and by moving a few boxes I have already 'found' a few things that have been lost over the last year (tells you how often I organize) ....I do like a small sense of kayos around me, a feeling that something is about to happen, rather than the doctors waiting room tidy clean feel...that freaks me out just a tad...  but I have gone from organized kayos to Mayhem overload... I mean, it is insane.  And why you may well ask...well...I will tell you...(and I do have a pretty good excuse)...my 'our' life has been in a bit of an upheaval lately ...Our beloved dog passed recently, my mother before that, my only sister is moving to Texas and it seems whatever creative energies I have left have been sucked up by the Facebook Monster....Time melts away and with it...creative juices .....therefore, my desire to be at one with artistic creation  is well...basically...*POOF* .... So I got myself away from FACEBOOK...didn't even say goodbye, leave a light on ..but I did close the door....DAMN, should have locked it....!! oh well....  Now I am back over to my very neglected blog ...from where I started and things are once again beginning to feel right....so back to the studio.....clean, clean, clean ...organize ,organize, organize, ..and then...back to work for me....Hello Old friend....!!!

Later,
Jodi

Jodi, I will join you in the cleaning spree. I am sorting books at present. My shelves are all over the house and stuck in everywhere. Category sorting. I have one very tall bookcase in the bedroom. It is now full of all of my needlework books. Onward and upward. I have stacks of books everywhere. I am drowning in books!

Oh Lordy...don't get me started on Books!! They surround me in my studio...many shelves chocked full on the outer parameter ...like sentinels watching me....waiting...waiting....I am working my way from the center of the room out...and the books and the shelves that house them will be dealt with eventually ...a monumental task and will take several pots of coffee I am sure before done....because as you know....not just sorting, but thumbing through slowly ...remembering, idea gathering....dreaming.... it is like Art/Craft Porn ...best of luck in your quest....let me know how it goes and send pointers...

OK, I'm an idiot...I didn't remember that I had already commented that you're over here now. Yeesh, I'm surprised I remember my own name some days. Anyhoo, ignore the previous comment if you like!
