Where's My Motivation?
On most things I am a self started and independent. However when it comes to cleaning? I could be doing SO MANY other things, so I push it off and off, until I am a candidate for How Clean Is Your House. In order to get me to actually clean, I give my self deadlines...super serious deadlines. I invite people over. I must clean my house because people need a place to sit and they WILL JUDGE ME. And I don't wanna be judged, so I clean.
This time I gave my self TWO deadlines. The first was my in laws coming to visit and the second was a potluck I am hosting for my local knitting group. Well, in laws had to cancel their visit due to health reasons; THANK DIA I had a back up because with my submission and Christmas deadlines I would have found a reason to put off the cleaning.
So I have not been knitting all that much this week (I did squeeze a few rounds on the Yet To Be Named shawl whilst at the laundry mat AND bunny/kitteh has a body and one leg). But I did manage to finally finish (well mostly--I'd say 95%) my den and turn it into a work room for me and a school room for the kids. We have our dining room back!!!
Here's a preview of where I set up shop for me.
I still have a lot of work to do before I roll out more pictures. I hung the yarn on the cork board for inspiration and for the pretty view.
I also reworked the Lorelei stole scarf--it is back to being a scarf. Woot!
Okay back to work for me! (I was taking a break-the dust was killing me)
