Well, it doesn't show much, but I *did* get a little more of the office/sewing/craft/SCA Storage room organized. I don't think it will ever look uncluttered until I spend the $$$$$ on a whole new set of furniture including wall-to-wall cabinetry, BUT the worst of the clutter around the edges of the room has been organized. I also went to Lamps Plus and picked up the equivalent of an Ott lamp on sale so I can see what I'm doing. I bought some 'reveal' bulbs at Lowes to put in the ceiling fan, only to get the frosted glass cover off and discover that the bulb, singular, is in fact only about 1" long and a half inch in diameter, and surprisingly bright as it is. So I'm just going to leave the glass cover off, ghetto as it looks, and the room is 10X brighter. (Almost bright enough to justify taking the Ott-knockoff back, except that it is very bright and at the perfect level for working at the sewing table. And overhead lighting means I cast shadows when I lean forward to work on something - not helpful.) Didn't find any desk lamps that I liked much, though there WAS a $80-something Ott tabletop version of the floor lamp I bought. Except I don't need spendy full spectrum light by the computer - just something a step up from the clip-lamp that came home from college with me and gets very hot when lit for any amount of time. Hm.
I'm tempted to pull down the tupperware full of remnants and prewash them all, then put them with the rest of my fabric stash (now tupperware'd and in the closet!), but I should probably focus on the laundry I need done so I have clean work clothes tomorrow. Hm.
Also, Spring? It's fekkin' SUMMER - we skipped a season. Rrgh. Nasty-hot outside.
I still need to find a cabinet that properly fits my Tea things, and store my kama and the nice re-finished box for carrying/storage that I have, as they are in the bathroom and office corner, respectively. (Not a particularly effective or aesthetic solution, but they're not underfoot, so I suppose that until I figure out what to do with them, storage-wise, I at least won't kick them on accident and break them.)
On my organizing/cleaning to-do list is still to go through and pull all the old Crown Prints that are older than three months, because really? I don't look at them much, since other than Duke G's amusing articles, they're primarily event announcements and contact information. But that's a make-big-piles-of-stuff project for another day. My giveadamn levels are too low to continue much with Big Projects today - it's laundry, then sake and lounging around for the rest of today, I think.
