Time for an Intervention or Why I did not go to the Auction

Yes, it disturbs me.  It would not be in this shape if I had two healthy thumbs or if I had that tidy gene.  I have tried discipline. It hasn't helped.  There are not machines on the top shelf.  Only cases are stored there.  Why am I keeping empty cases?  The 301 Grass cases may have some value if I can get them less stinky and in better shape.  Or else I am just going to give up and put the machines back in them and call it good.  Something's gotta give.

Don't worry, Mom.  I will clean it up as soon as I can.  Tomorrow might be a good day for this chore.

    I am considering putting a picture of the machine that is in the case on the outside of the case- maybe tied to the handle? I tend to forget what's in a case...and what I have. I am also looking at the herd and planning on thinning it....Laura

      That's a great idea. Steven bought me manilla labels, the kind with string ties attached. I label each machine when I finish it, or when I put it away, with work left to do. I like the photo idea.

      And I do feel so peaceful and happy when I am in there. So it is rather like heaven for me.

    If your mother saw my workshop, she'd be very pleased to see how organized you are. Entropy is a MUCH stronger force than I am.
    Maybe I should put up your photos as an inspiration of what I MIGHT be able to accomplish.

    Also I am not a robot, but this website seems to think I am (have tried 3 times to publish so far)

      Nope, you are not a robot. Don't know why I haven't gotten posts in the past....Maybe they are in some spam filter.

      Already its better. I put away some stuff and moved some things. Too many machines....Less stuff is the answer.
