Chaos Reigns

January 28th, 2010

Over the last 7 weeks with Christmas & school holidays and trying to get a fundraiser off the ground my study/classroom as been neglected and now chaos is king.  It’s a shocker.  I’ve taken photos to prove it.  And I’m going to post them here.  I need accountability.  I need you all telling me what a grot I am to shame me into getting it sorted!!  lol

Are you ready for it?

Bad isn’t it?  And that’s just a wee corner.  The rest is just as bad.  I have no defence as it all just sounds like poor excuses for my slovenly behaviour.  Well today I hope to get some work done in there.  I have a gazillion ideas for cards & boxes running around in my head {plenty of space up there! lol} and I cannot possibly even contemplate creation in this mess.  I purchased myself a lovely new cupboard yesterday to start the re-organisation and tidy up of the pit of sh…..err…mess!!

So this is the beginning.  I shall keep you all apprised of my progress.  Wish me luck as I foray into the depths of the disaster that I created!!

Until next time,
Happy {tidy} stamping!!

    How nice to see someone else with a workspace like that, it’s not just me that gets into a mess!!!
    I do think it is almost unforgiveable to not have all those punches lined up on your fantastic rails but I’m sure you can toss them back up there pretty fast.
    Good luck finding your desk underneath…I have faith you will get there.
    And “happy back to school” day from one mum to another!!! :)

    Oh I’d be there in a jiffy to help if I could! *hugs* Although I’d be gas bagging so much don’t know if I’d be much help, lol! It’s a case of eating an elephant……one bite at a time :D Regardless of its state however I find myself having space envy! Hahahaha!

    MESS!!! WHAT MESS!!! That is just a card making genius at work I say!!!! You know if you tidy it up too much you won’t be able to find anything. WOOPS!! Sorry that’s my philosophy on the whole thing, but I think you should run with it.

    This looks just like my space – but I don’t have the excuse like you do!!! I hope the fun raiser is a success.

    I have a similar mess Madonna, but mine has jumped out of the study and is all over the dining room table at the moment…so I think that if you’ve restricted yours to one room, you are not doing too badly at all :-) .

    Ump! I know you are a creative genius and all but you do know I just can’t cope with it!!!!!LOL! It’s SOOOOOO you Mads. You just need another 24hours in a week. I think you should just close the door and sleep instead. You need it, lovely!!!! Meges XXXX

    My entire house kinda looks like this……oops, did I just type that out loud?

    Hope things are feeling a little more under control for you now that the kids are back at school.
