Update, Week 4

Here it is another week and NO projects.  I am feeling a little stronger and I'm on less medication, so that's a plus.

I still have all these beautiful new products scattered on my desk. Well, I did straighten them a little so you can see them better. :)






I have been trying to purge, sort, and organize also.  Not such a good thing to be doing when I really should be creatingOf course, that has been going real, real slow also.

My wonderful husband installed some shelving in my Studio B closet over the weekend.  I want to put my retired stamps and papers, my Catalogs and Stampin' Success magazines along with other miscellaneous craft supplies in there. I had most of the supplies stacked laying on the floor  in plastic containers, which was inconvenient and a total waste of useable space.

I really like things neat and organized before I craft. Clutter just causes me to "shut down". Of course, this surgery has shut me down pretty much.  I sure can tell I'm 69 not 39 anymore! Healing takes a little more time and I find my energy level is not what I would like it to be. Everyone tells me just to rest when I need to and heal. On the bright side, I've gotten to read 4 books which have been on my Kindle for a long time. I wouldn't normally take the time to read that many in such a short time, but that's what I have a lot of right now.

Have a wonderful Tuesday and do something CRAFTY, unlike me!

Wow! It sounds like you are doing pretty well here at the 4 wk. mark! I admire your wanting to organize your craft room with a newly replaced knee! I had some furniture moved out of my craft room and some other furniture moved in, so now I have to unpack boxes, purge and reorganize. It's a slow process. I can't wait to see what you create with your new Stampin Up stuff:-) Take care!

Yes, Elisha I'm thankful that I'm doing fairly well at this point. Start the real "hard core" PT this week. I'm not looking forward to it, but if I want to use my knee properly it needs to be done. I tend to be a little crazy when it comes to organization. My husband just shakes his head and smiles. :} And your right, it's a slow process, but I hope to have it done before the weekend. Blessings on your reorganizing. B
