Sidetracked Charley

A very noisy sky I arrived home yesterday to total and absolute chaos into which I had to unload the car and create even more chaos. I had spent two days in Taos doing art demo at CFT Decor and Gifts  which carries some of my smaller works in painting and photography. It was fun but such endeavors always take more stuff than you thought it would. And it takes away from the projects left at home. As I tried to find places to put down that which went out two days ago my first reaction is to wonder who had been in my house and studio messing with stuff. Just me. I went looking for the book of lists hoping it would help me center on what needed to be done. It was under the gardening journal. Clearly, however, I need another list. Well, two. Projects to Complete and Continuing Projects . I am not a person who can sit by idly and wait for paint to dry. Too often I start another painting or beading or gardening project. I have currently eight items on the Projects to Complet...

I am forever writing lists. Things to do Books to read Movies to watch. Groceries and shopping lists. I am forever losing lists. Leaving them home When off to the store Wondering why I ever started that. I am forever using lists as bookmarks filling the back side with another list Making them a spread sheet. And so at last I began a book A book of lists Some done Some to be done. I am forever adding  to my book of lists. Long or short. Today I felt inspired to begin another to be done list which included things long not done. It seemed I finally had a plan for finishing that project. And so I did not lose that list I also began my book of lists. Or at least officially Christened it. Lying around on the coffee table was a journal never begun to which I had entered photos to be printed, and  on another page movies friends recommended, and below that books to read. Such an idea. One place to look for all tho...
