My mind is racing too fast and it has too many different mental folders going. I hate it when life is like that. The only way out of the mess is to keep working and slowly but surely the folders will get put away. I have been in a conundrum over whether to just kick back and go play today or stay home and work.
I need to have fun. Way too much work over the last couple of years. But we have a freezing rain thing coming in and I really need to spend the day working on cleaning up my mind, the studio and getting suitcases packed for Africa(Quite a chore) .
I think it is settled-stay home, cave up like I should and get my life in order. Africa is beckoning.

Good morning!
Well hello everyone!
Long time no blog. It has been a very busy period for me and our family. The show was wonderful. Now that costume demands are getting more manageable, we were able to concentrate a little more on props and decorations. We also had some really nice musical acts along with the dancing which seemed to balance out the spiritual with the holly jolly. I always feel like the show is the beginning of my Christmas.
Out of pure necessity we have all the desktops up and running tip top and printers are not far behind. I finally moved all my paper clutter out of the extra room/den and it feels pretty good to have the office area finally getting reined in.
As I have mentioned we had a STUFF overload. Office stuff was not exempt. Grandma K. was just not on top of things in the memory department and like My Granny buying the same bag of craft items 4 or 5 times, it seems Adele (mother in law) had a thing for office supplies and the like. Our children will never have to purchase staples or paperclips. In fact, my grandchildren may never have to purchase that stuff. The same goes for certain label sizes and calculators. Too bad batteries only have a shelf life of a few years. There was literally a small storage tote full that we inherited.
But like every other area in the household, it is getting a major cleaning and organizing. Slowly but surely the house is keeping the proper amount of STUFF and not STUFF from 3 or more households.
Christmas is gently sweeping in this year. I think because it lands on a Saturday. Or maybe because I was able to get a little head start. All I know is that I will not be wrapping at 11:00pm on Christmas eve and I like that plan.
Well, I will say adios for now. I have a little extra paperwork to do, then it is off to wrap and see what I still have to run out for. Take care and be safe in your travels.

Update
I am not posting as much as I want. There is just no time. The show is 1 1/2 weeks away so I will be on hiatus until after the show. In the meantime, enjoy your holiday preparations.
