I used my cleaning time this morning to start work on my studio – the sewing side. When things look like they do right now, ninety minutes doesn’t really do much to put a dent in the mess. So after lunch I’ve continued the task.

Going into the day I knew I was missing one pin cushion and my stapler. I wasn’t surprised at losing the pin cushion because I had stacks of fabric on every surface but the stapler is more puzzling.

When I cleared out a corner I found the pin cushion under an upset basket of odds and ends – the basket had been pushed off the edge of the table and everything had spilled out. I fully expected to find the stapler under some piles of paper but so far it hasn’t shown up. I’m ready now to move on to another area of my room and I can’t imagine why my stapler would have migrated to that area. So until I find it there is another pile of paper started waiting to be clipped together and filed.

Pat has a concert at Cranberry Hall tonight so there wasn’t any way to get out of working the show. I really like the performer (Oliver Swain) so I don’t mind.
