Bother. I can't put it off any longer, can I?

All last year, I said "I'll tackle cleaning out and organizing the storage heap room after I'm done with the book!" When I needed to find a certain item of club clothing or supplies for sewing projects, unearthing them from the storage heap room was an exciting adventure. Would I find the black lace trim or velvet & faux-fur frock coat that I knew was up there somewhere? Maybe! (Well, usually. After 15 minutes or more of rummaging and heaving piles of ruffly skirts aside.)

But.

I'm done with the writing and editing part of the book, aren't I? Which means I really DO have to start The Great Clear-Out. Yes, it will be interesting and exciting, finding things I forgot I had. It will also be tedious, and really hard work. I am a pack-rat, to put it mildly. But it Must Be Done.

(This post brought to you by my rummaging through the storage heap room in an attempt to find a bag of fabric I KNEW I had. I eventually found it, but it took over half an hour.)
