Sorting Stuph

       I am STILL working in my studio, organizing and unpacking totes full of miscellaneous stuph!  I just counted AT LEAST 42 UFO's (Un-Finished Objects) that are waiting for me. I told someone once I have to live long enough to finish every item I want to create.  With the length of my list I'll live to be 350 years old!  For probably a dozen years I had a serious case of Pattern Acquisition Syndrome.  I bought every new pattern that caught my eye. I have a filing cabinet filled with files on a slew of designers, each having somewhere between 1 to 15 patterns.  I didn't count all the epb patterns, but I'm sure they are hedging towards a count of 20! Three drawers full of patterns designed by other people.  I do mean full!  The 4th drawer is full of kits that I absolutely had to have because I would get the doll completed sooner, or make a second one in a different color as a gift.  Ha!  I have been making dolls 20+ years. That's a lot of patterns and extra kits waiting for me.  
       My Mother-in-Law will be visiting for 10 days in December.  As we have no first floor guest room we need to convert one of my "storage rooms" into a nice little room for her. The room is currently walled with those white/ semi transparent drawer units.  2 walls are stacked over my head.  Okay so I'm only 5' 1" but seriously, what will I do with all this stuph? at least 2 walls will be moved into my second "storage room" which of course is the smallest room in the house sans the ladies room! That is part of what motivated me to tackle the boxes and totes to get excess things off the floor.  She arrives in 4 weeks.  I think I'll meet the deadline. I think I can, I think I can... chug chug chug.
       But for the rest of the day I'm back in there organizing and rearranging some stuff with some other stuph to make it organized so there is space for my Mother-in-Law. Come January I had better start in on these UFO's before they begin to take over the whole house!!!
