Go Big or Go Bust: Day 215 (postcard from my new studio with Mr. Green's storage bench)

August 22, 2015 in go big or go bust

Mr. Green very kindly put his many projects on hold to build me a storage bench and he completed it late yesterday. With joy, I've been cleaning up the chaos of my studio all afternoon. And while sorting and stashing, I was hoping that a blog topic for today would occur to me.

Meanwhile Mr. Green is on to his next project, which involves a weed whacker. For those of you who live in a city, you may not know that a weed whacker is such a noisy piece of equipment that it makes concentration difficult. And to make things even more exciting, the pressure is on. We're leaving to go to a rodeo in half an hour. I've spent what would have been my writing time on several false starts and so for today, it's going to be a postcard from my studio. Well, how about two postcards! The 'before the storage bench' and the 'after'.

Go Big or Go Bust: Day 182 (listening to Alabama 3's Sopranos Theme Song and Cleaning)

Big news. I think we have a highlights reel! (Must sleep on it.)

That incredibly good news released my linear mind to the next burning job - to get this studio clean and organized. And so today was Cleaning Day. In this case it means getting at the walls and ceiling too cause there was a lot of dust in here with pick-axing the floor. For the person with OCD 'tendencies', weeding and cleaning have their charms. But where weeding is contemplative, cleaning is WAR. I'm chomping at the bit to get everything out of boxes. CHOMPING AT THE BIT. (Hey it is a barn.)

Here's my favorite version of Alabama 3's song.
