Weather and Withering

What a fabulous day! Temperatures in the mid to high 60's, good friends to visit, accident report FINALLY done, and some sock knitting by me and the Clogger all made for a wonderful Wednesday experience at our house.

I have been trying to stay on top of the housework around here a little better. The kitchen and living room are definitely in better shape and are both receiving regular attention. However, the dining room is a huge sucking hole of crap stacked on crap. I'm not sure what my issue is, other than I need more storage space. Sure, lots of it does not belong there. In fact, most of it does not belong there. But as long as dining room houses the sewing machine(s), all of the "current sewing projects" have to stay in there, too... right? And some extra yarn currently resides on the table, along with a couple of abandoned projects, but really, no room in this house is immune to yarn/knitting. The extra homeschool books/projects/papers just don't fit on the shelf I designated for them. Partly because that shelf also works quite well for the music/church items, and is now overloaded. And I have a hard time going through and putting things away when there's no space to put them away TO.

It's clear, I have issues.
