I’m almost ready to start playing with my gelli plate.  I think I have everything I will need to play with it.  Unfortunately, the thing that stands between me and the producing images, is room to work.  I need to seriously clean my work space so that I can either hang the prints once I make them, or find a spot to lay them once I make them.  Herein lies my dilemma.  I need to devote a serious amount of time into arranging, cleaning, moving, you name it, the things in my space. I just don’t seem to have a system that will currently work for me.  I’m not sure why I can’t stay organized, I just can’t.  I clean the room and am really proud of myself, and within a week, it’s back to bedlam.  I even sent a photo of it to a friend and she thought it looked like a hurricane came through.  It is pretty close to the look of a hurricane.  I’m trying to use every available space, but somewhere in the mix, I’m not doing something right, because I just can’t keep it clean.  Maybe clean isn’t the word, maybe the word is organized.  I feel like I am buried.  And frustrated.  In the time it’s taken me to type this, I could have cleaned something.  Motivation is also a problem.  I really lack motivation because the task seem daunting.  I’m going to make a plan and stick to it.  First part of the plan, quit buying anything crafty.  Second part of the plan.  Give away a lot of my accumulated projects.  Third part of the plan, make more projects and videotape them.  Fourth part of the plan, give those things away as well.  I love it when a plan comes together.
