Who wants a Clean House?

I have been incredibly busy. I have tried to prioritize things as much as possible, and unfortunately blogging has been on the lower end of the list. I make most of my income in the summer, and so, I have to give priority to whatever helps fulfill that goal. Now, I am finding myself running out of speed. I have stepped back the last few days to get a better look at what is happening.

My feet are really screaming for comfort, and though I did get a new pair of wonderful work shoes, they do not comfort me like a good ol' tennie......

I titled my post today, Clean House, because that is my goal for this fall/winter. In many ways, I want to de-clutter. I have begun with my studio, which is looking really good with a little help from some friends, but now, it is making me want to continue in the house. My philosophy of "you can never have enough 'input' is starting to wear me out, and I am looking at some of my input and considering out-putting it.......

Clean House, the tv show, is a catalyst for giving me the belief that it can happen. I can let go of things that I thought I was attached to, but really, I am only attempting to live a life I do not currently live, and they are stand-bys to fill in the dream. That, is what clutter generally is. Why not live the life I currently have? Why always live projectively?

Hearing a great sermon by Rob Bell about the Village Elder has given me reason to believe that I am not over yet. I thought of just "quitting" because I am tired, but I think this is a common malady this time of year. That and because as the Red Queen declared, "It takes a lot of running just to stay in the same place".

I decided that I will be redoing my blog and de-clutter it a little. So often, on the road at shows, my people will say, I visited your blog, but I don't know what part of it is you.......that's a problem. Besides, I think I joined lots of communities that I really can't give the necessary time to and it's not fair to them or my little blog to complicate it this way, if I can't be up to date with it. So, you will see shortly a new look and perhaps, it will make more sense to those who know me and have purchased from me on the road. I hope to make it easier to order things from me this way, too. I know this is a "blog" and not a website, but I can try to at least make it easier for my people to recognize me.

I hope you will drink to that. I think I understand better now what I want to say and be in this on-line communication. As time permits, I will make the changes and hope that you will get to know me even better. Until then, keep doing good things and blessing others---that's what really matters.
