I am not a naturally tidy person.
My personality allows me a great deal of initial enthusiasm for projects, but frequently by the time I get to the end, there isn’t quite enough left to get me through the removal of the detritus from the project in hand.
However, the first of the ark project deadlines has been met and my poor Hovel was less of a haven and more of a disaster zone.
So today (at least) I’m embracing the quieter virtues and putting things to rights…at least until I stir them all up again for the next round.
Even if my inspiration has to come buttered.

Me neither – not naturally tidy, I mean. I’m also relating closely to your losing your head of steam. Just one of those things creatives deal with… Good luck with the next stage! With you in spirit…

Thanks! I do feel much better for getting everything put away, but I don’t expect a long term change of temperament.

I like that. Maybe I should try some buttered inspiration to get my sewing room cleaned up!

It was very effective. Somehow hot buttered something or other always sounds so appealing in books, it seemed worth a try.

i started out not being very tidy, and i go thru phases where things are disasters [perpetually my office desk]. but i do like cleaning up now and again. there’s something satisfying about tidiness
thanks for the kind words on my quilt !

Than you for inspiring me to pick up one of the many quilts that are half finished in my to-do pile!
