Happy New Year!

I can’t believe it’s already 2004! This year, I have resolved to make no resolutions. I’m going to just do things, instead.

Like clean my craft room, which really could called be a different word…that starts with “cra” and ends in “p”. It’s bad. I had it all organized, then something happened and now it’s not. And it’s not just that it isn’t organized. I mean, there’s not that much floor space in there to begin with, between the large table, the bookcase, and the bed (it doubles as a guest room), but at the moment, there are only a few square inches of carpet showing. The rest is covered with bags of yarn, baskets of yarn, piles of yarn (ah, a pattern emerges), books, fabric scraps, pins (I hope they’re all pointy-side down), scraps of fusible webbing (can sunlight fuse that stuff to carpet? I hope not!) and all manner of other bits of crafty things that were pulled out and not put away in the explosion of gift-making.

And now, it’s overwhelming how much needs to be done to make it even marginally useful as a craft room…like being able to even get to the sewing machine.

But I’m not resolving to clean it. I’ll just do it. Tomorrow, maybe…or the next day…
