I'm procrastinating--today I told myself I was going to whip the kitchen and dining room into shape. I'm taking it really slowly...
 |
| And this is after I've already done some clearing away! |
The dining room is rarely used for dining purposes. It's more often my sewing/craft room. And--here's what really drives me crazy--it is also the room for stuff that has no home or stuff that needs to be put away. It's a clutter graveyard, and finding homes for this stuff just sucks the energy right out of me. Somehow the "if it doesn't have a home, get rid of it" idea is much more difficult in practice.
But I know that I really enjoy that sense of "mission accomplished," like yesterday after I returned from the laundromat with clean comforters ready to be put away (where, I'm not exactly sure).

| The comforters--clean and ready to be put away until fall. |
And once I'm done, I can go back to reading,
 |
| I'm on magazine overload! |
 |
| I am loving these books and wishing my girls would pick them up--and there's a new one out! |
or knitting,
 |
| More dishcloths! |
or dreaming about tomorrow night's chive risotto cakes!

| I'll be making Barefoot Contessa's Chive Risotto Cakes. |
