I Gather...Slowly...

I'm 15 minutes away from failing at Blogalong with Effy on the second day...it's NOT happening!!!  I am in the process (so very close!!!) to finishing my spread from Inner Intentions for the third (?  ...no time to look...I'm pretty sure it's third...) chapter.  The "I Gather" chapter.  Should be good to go tomorrow barring random oddness like what happened tonight.  Nail in tire, trip to get it fixed, fixing takes FOREVER, very little time for anything but eating and bemoaning the lack of time...

BUT  I am managing to put up a post with a picture...so that's got to count for something, right?

So what do I gather?  Well, take a look:

Very informative picture, if you look closely...

I gather messes.  Fun messes.  I also gather art supplies.  I gather various creative hobbies (art journaling, working with polymer clay,  crochet, sewing, soft toy making, the list goes on and on and on).  I gather random weird things...why do I have a wooden meat cleaver in the basket on the left?  I don't know...but one day, I'll figure it out...  I gather Happy Thoughts, and you can see the next two almost done, just in need of a type out of the phrasing that I scribbled on the attached post it notes and an attachment of said phrase to the mini paintings.

And now, I'm going to gather myself together, post this post, eat a cold hamburger , and gather some zzz's. And vow to do better tomorrow come nail in tire or high water...
