I'm a Mean, Lean, Cleaning Machine

I'm counting today as a success! I had decided to re-open my Etsy shop, so look for it to come to a venue near you, but in preparation for that I need to take care of a number of other things first.

The first is cleaning up my office, "command central", so that I can take care of all those things I need to do and feel organized and in control. I had started this a year ago, and stalled out on the process. You have no idea! But, I'm motivated now and am moving forward. I'm also lower on cash, so re-launching my Etsy shop and my website has become more of a priority. So today, I cleaned out 1 box of random papers and one complete file drawer. I was amazed at the information that I had acquired over the years, most of which is now either out of date or available online. 

Sometimes, just starting something is the hard part, but once you get over that hump, momentum builds and the work completes itself  . . sort of. . maybe. . I can hope can't I? I'm an optimist at heart, and if I channel some latent OCD, that job, once started, will be worked on come hell or high water. 

The second major task that I'm avoiding big time is updating and renovating a range of electronics including my poor gently aging laptop, the software on my aging laptop, my website, my blog, and my online sales venues. Figuring out the electronics is a daunting task, so after nibbling around the edges of it, I am now avoiding it completely while I clean out my physical office. When I am done with that, I will have no choice but to address the cyber issues plaguing me. Let's hope I can get some wizarding mojo working in my favor.
