At least I would if I could remember what it looks like! Adelaide is still having, on the whole, grey, miserable days. Wet, dull and dreary. So we’ll turn to face the sun metaphorically speaking, pull our socks up and move onwards.
The past week has been emotionally, and physically horrendous. Extreme stress to the point that it has made me sick. I walked into work on Thursday morning, and my boss greeted me with, “Good morning – why do you look like crap?” Oh well, hardly having slept for 4 or 5 nights in a row and that’s just for starters.
However, today I managed to get something creative done. I finished a couple of layouts, one of which I’ll show you today, another one is an old one from last week. I’ve had such a dry spell, but this afternoon, the work just flowed off the end of my mouse. It was so easy! It felt good.
On the home front, this week mission successful to 1) rearrange our lounge room, including getting a new bookcase for dvd’s and games. 2) Tyson’s room makeover is complete with a small bookcase for him as well. 3) operation shed cleanout is continuing with 4 boxes of books donated to a local community 2nd hand book shed and 2 boxes dropped off at the local opshop. 4) I have broken down into the recycling a few more empty boxes from the shed, but the recycling bin is only emptied every 2 weeks, and I do need to leave room for things like bottles and jars. Unfortunately. So I have to stockpile the boxes. I think I’ll still be recycling them next year!
Next on the list of things to do is get some more framed pictures hung up in the bedroom, and organise some prints for newly freed up wall space in the lounge room. I know what I want and I know where, I just have to organise it!
So what projects are you all up to over the spring cleaning/autumn organising period?
My greatest fear was realised. Something that I have dreaded my whole life.
It has been both a short and a very long year, but it still hurts. Every. Single. Day. Today it has been hourly, and tomorrow isn’t looking much better.
Miss you Dad…
Thanks everyone for your nice words of congratulation and encouragement. And yes, it’s that easy and more of you lovely people should give it a try!!
I discovered this little treasure trying to get my scrapping back into gear. I created it last month, and can you believe, never uploaded it!?! Well, you can bet I have now! Now lets see if I can create a new layout as well 
I’ve even got the Beethoven Sonatas going to try to get some creativity flowing. Although I have to admit, I’ve been a lot more creative in my photography of recent.
I am taking this chance to work hard on preparing for my very own Etsy shop, selling my images. I love them, many visitors comment on them, and I think that the world is ready to share them too! So stay tuned. I need to organise sizes, prints etc, and then I’ll launch on a gloriously unsuspecting public! 
Now it’s time to go to bed Work tomorrow. Saving the world, one photograph at a time
