Various activities and accomplishments...

This past week I limited my computer time so that I could be "doing vs. only thinking about the doing" and it is working out well for me!

I've managed to make it out into the studio and dig in with the re-organization efforts. I completely clear off the shelf that keeps falling under the wall to wall cabinets. Now I will be able to remove it easily and have the shelf cut down. This will allow me to use more brackets to support it, and with any luck, alleviating some of the problem.

I managed to go through and organize items that I desired to keep, sorted through other items and found them new homes grouped with a similar nature of things, and did some purging.

I worked on getting the 2 Art Idea Journals in my possession finished so that I can get them postal on Monday.

I'm happy I set some goals for myself that enable me to get to where I want to be. It is helping me accomplish what it is I want to do, be, and become.

For the upcoming week, I pulled out my 3 CIS Paper/Sticker Binders and placed a pile of items that need put into them in front of them on the table. I'm desiring to go completely through them and everything I do not use will be given along with one of the CIS binders to my dd, Amber along with some blank inserts. After returning from the P.O. on Monday, I'm hoping to begin to tackle that.

I've more organizing to do with art supplies before I will be able to focus my complete attention to setting up a more functional office area. Right now, I have items in that area that I'd be happier with if they were moved to another location. I believe that by moving them, it will assist my mind with the knowledge that while in the office area of the studio it is time for business! It is both a blessing and a curse using the computer that is there for both business and creating so I've decided to begin establishing some boundaries to assist me with being more functional while in that area. I figure if I put the most often used and necessary business items closest to the computer and the creative items that require the computer a little further away it will help me with this issue. Time will definitely tell!

I'm not too big on the re-organization; well, actually moving supplies from one point to another, as it totally confuses me when I'm the creative mode and go to reach automatically for something that isn't where it used to be. However, I know the studio will be more functional to me and with time spent within there, I'll begin to adjust!
