Monday, Monday...
When you are a cat, every day of the week is basically the same. Except for the fact that there are days when everyone goes away and leaves you to your own devices for several hours (allowing you to sleep as much as you want) and then there are days when everyone stays around the house all day (while you sleep as much as you want).
For a human, it's different. The difference between, oh, Saturday and Monday? It's almost like they aren't even both days of the week... they should be two different things.
I dreamed I was on a vacation last night with a friend; we were in a foreign country (a European country but I couldn't tell which one) and we were riding this train around and around and around... then we went to a very crowded restaurant full of locals, where nobody spoke English, and couldn't figure out what to order. Finally we ordered what the people at the next table had -- it turned out to be a very large ham sandwich, about a foot square, between two huge slices of white bread. The waiter sort of carved it for us at the table and served it up to us.
This weekend Marty and I made some progress on my craft room/study project. He put up some shelves for me and we moved my computer in... I have these new utility tables that I will be using for a desk/craft surface and I think they are going to work out great. I still have a lot of work to do in here, but this is the beginning of what it will look like:
Of course, I have to clear off that table to the left -- that huge stack of stuff is my paper for printing CD covers, labels, etc. Once I get that table clear, I will put my paper cutter over there and use that area for assembling CDs and other jobs that need space. The corner behind me (when I was taking the picture) is still a big mess, but it's a lot better than it was a few days ago. It's full of art supplies, craft goods, mailing necessities, stationery, rubber stamps, etc etc etc. I'm still organizing it.
It feels good to be getting something accomplished! And now Marty and I both have our computers upstairs -- his is across the hall in the study. It's a greatly improved state of affairs.
