Over the years I would see something and think, "I know what I can do with that." So I would buy up a bunch of it. I've moved a lot of times. So I can't always lay hands on stuff. This week and last week I spent a lot of time looking for wooden eggs. While I was looking but not finding them, I saw lots of other stuff. So then I decided I wanted the three pieces that so with a simmering pot a parent made for me about twenty years ago. I had seen all three pieces. But finding all three of them again was a long, drawn out operation because all I knew was that I'd seen all the pieces. They weren't together and I hadn't picked any on of the pieces up and taken it to a reasonable location because I was looking for wooden eggs. I eventually found all three pieces.
Now I'm looking for small floral wire. I want to take the huge ribbon and twist it gently, then fasten it with floral wire so I can drape it over my French door. I can fasten the floral wire to the hangers. Last year I fastened the ribbon to the hangers and they just unwrapped and looked odd. I saw the floral wire while I was looking for the miserable wooden eggs. I need to tidy things as I go, not just look through the clutter. If I actually did that, I would obviously be somebody else, not me, because I just leave a mess behind me!
I want to be somebody else...somebody neat! If I make that my New's Year's Resolution, I'll probably need medication to live with myself.
