I\u2019m typing this at 3.22am, having woken in the night, about an hour ago. And not gotten back to sleep. Insomnia is a recurring issue these days, or, I should say, these nights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another recurring issue is clutter. Everywhere. In every room of our home, and in all the outdoor spaces. And, most likely, in my (our?) minds! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m determined to address this pressing problem, even if it\u2019s slowly and gradually. That\u2019s the only realistic way. I think. Over this half-term the primary focus, as well as the lounge area downstairs, for me, is my workshop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our pal Ken recently pointedly described my workshop as a storage area, as opposed to an actual workshop. The bleedin\u2019 cheek! But in some respects he\u2019s right. In order to work in there at all, never mind safely, I simply must<\/em> get the place in to some semblance of order!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Things I\u2019ve done recently to this end include building a tool caddy, and repeatedly going over everything trying to find places to store stuff, vacuuming regularly, and putting up various shelves and hooks, etc. Oh, and daily tidying up sessions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Several further steps I ought to take include: creating efficient storage for abrasives, esp\u2019 sandpaper; organising my wood supplies more efficiently (indoors and out); either making or putting into storage currently unattended music projects (drums and guitars!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n If I can do all these things this week, I shall be very pleased! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u2019m typing this at 3.22am, having woken in the night, about an hour ago.
