work in progress (aren’t we all?)
Thanks to everyone who emailed and left comments after my last post. My depression is cyclical and linked to my menstrual cycle. Right now I am feeling okay again - it’s the constant ups and downs that get to me. I am going to go back to my doctor to see what else I can be doing. I know I can work on my diet and exercise so I am going to behave better there! I am going to try hard to update this blog more too - both for you and for me. I have always liked borders on photos but I get a bit lazy. See how long this lasts!
Anyway here are some bags that I recently made for an order:
Here are some more bags, WIP - love the getas fabric. It looks so good with the pink:
I have been tidying up again - it never ends! Creative mind - messy desk or something like that I suppose! I am determined to keep my papercrafting on one desk and my sewing on the other so that I don’t have to keep moving WIPs all around the place.
Notice the little area of green mat in the front of the photo? That is my total work area - the rest of the desk is taken up with STUFF. Oh and the little kraft (Maya Road) binders are going to be photo presents for someone special for Christmas. If you have very sharp eyes and notice the stack of matchboxes - hopefully they will end up as a Christmas Countdown calendar within the next week:
I have been waiting for these to come out in Australia for ages and I found a US eBay seller who had them last week - brand new Doodle Genies from Chatterbox. I got the Whimsical, Breezy and Twitterpated and they arrived this morning.
Do I have the very first ones in the country??? 
And finally, Paul bashed a hole in the wall yesterday. No, he wasn’t being a crazy person:
I can’t wait! It’s gonna be another long hot summer.

Glad you are feeling better this week. Seems you need more organised storage space and work working area. I bought archive file boxes (couldn’t afford the see through plastic ones), and they stack one on top of another and everything in categories and easier to locate. Maybe another work table, an old kitchen table would do the trick, from the op shop might work too. You must be climbing all over yourself everytime you are doing anything….Separate one area from another, separate rooms if possible, hallways are good for stacking boxes too.
