The conflict of time once again raises its' ugly face. I have errands that have to be done this morning. I have to deposit a check into my retirement account before the end of the day so that I can file my income taxes. I also have to purchase the latest Prince music CD at my local Target - the only store authorized to carry the music. I have boxes to mail, a bank deposit to make, some funds to transfer and a duplicate book to return to Barnes & Noble (one of my favorite places in the world - books...I LOVE them). After all of that, I may actually be able to get to work in my home. 
It occurred to me this morning that I have been in this house for 22 years. (No, I don't live in THIS home, but it's a wonderful picture, isn't it?) In that time I have accumulated 22 years worth of "stuff" - much of which I really don't need and all of which is getting seriously in my way. I have been trying to clear things out, but I have realized a remarkable lack of success in that endeavor. But I will have to keep on trying because I need to make things clear enough that I can eventually move my studio into the home instead of keeping it both at home and at the shop. That's going to cramp my space and my DH refuses to give me any more of his own crafting space. So, back to the attempt to clean, organize etc. And in between all of that, I MUST work at the kiln today. My fingers are itching to play with some enamel. And so, once again, housework will fall by the way and art will reign supreme. I like that choice - at least for now :-)
