Chaos

There comes a time every year when everything just seems to dissolve into chaos. I'm lucky in the fact that at least I manage to keep it organized chaos -- for the most part.

I'm furiously working on my art show. T-minus two and half months and counting! I just finished my first really large piece and have been working on the foundation of a fiber art piece for a couple of weeks now. If you're wondering how I've been planning this venture for the past year, my Pinterest boards can probably clue you in, especially Color Inspiration and to a lesser extent, Pictorialization. The latter is where I pin any piece that moves me.

Add that distraction to the quarterly Friends of the Library newsletter needing to be done, and our house is looking rather neglected. I thought I'd list my weekend projects, rather like Anna at Door Sixteen used to do, in order to keep me motivated. Here goes!

Weekend Projects

  • clear up the clutter
  • start working on new painting
  • organize extra food for USPS food drive
  • laundry
  • housework (so much housework!)
  • hang foundation for fiber art to see the structure I have to work with
  • start packing up and putting away deck furniture
  • organize my office so I have more room to paint (Currently, it's being taken over by stacks of books.)
Charles is planning on prepping the house for more painting. I may help with this, too.

What do you think? Does it look possible? I'm going to try my best. ;)

See you next week!
Well, as long as I survive the weekend.
