I worked my patootie off this weekend. Seriously, I haven’t done this much domestic work in one weekend for a really long time. As much as I like doing craft shows (and spending lots of time getting ready for them) I was craving some time with my dust cloth and vacuum cleaner. I even cleaned the oven! Okay, so it’s a self-cleaner, but still, I had to be on guard in case the whole thing caught fire. Yes, it was that bad.
The house is once again in order under control. I feel free! One thing I concentrated on was picking up and cleaning up my special writing room. I call it the East Wing. With NaNoWriMo coming soon (starts Friday!) I wanted a comfortable place to sit and write. And write and write. Away from any distractions.

My lovely East Wing.
There’s one more craft show in store for me in Taylors Falls, MN. It’s not until the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving, so I have a little bit of time for crafty and writey projects. This weekend got me motivated and off to a good start.
Sara it looks dreamy My writing spot is a bit mad with kids coming and going I will need earmuffs and loads of Chocolate to keep me focused. Look forward to hearing about your journey.
Say, now that you mention it, a nice bowl of M&Ms would be a helpful addition to my writing space. Thanks for the suggestion, and good luck with the distractions. I’ll be rooting you on!
I love the peanut ones but my teeth don’t!
How lovely to be on top of things once more. Now relax.
Oh yes. I might not actually relax, but having a clean and tidy house certainly brings on a more relaxed feeling. You’ve certainly been busy lately – I haven’t had a chance to comment on all of your recent posts but I just love what you’re presenting. Such lovely things. I really love that cowl! Thanks for checking in, Lucie.
