keeping up

so many possibilities, so little time and space.

not enough hours in the day, space on my hard drive, or free gigs or megabytes on my iphone (my iphone 4 with 32 gigs, that is). and too many pop ups from firefox saying a script is not responding-pop ups that take me away from the page i was on. i feel like this started two updates ago. maybe if i upgraded to the latest version of firefox it would stop. but i upgraded once, was unhappy, and proceeded to downgrade. and let's not forget non-digital space. there's only so many beads one can fit in a little bungalow. ;-)

maybe it's the ADHD, but sometimes I wonder why there isn't an app that helps creative people find the perfect balance of creating and promoting. perhaps the app does exist, but my phone is too full to download it.



monday...well, that seems like days ago, but from what i recall i was working on reorganizing my crafting stuff, moving it from the bedroom/under the bed into the breakfast nook.

tuesday i started research for an old project that never got off the ground-a database of antique pedal harps. and the afternoon was spent at the laundromat.

wednesday was spent creating a new website, www.zombieharpist.com, in order to promote myself as an award-winning, and quite possibly the only, zombie harpist. the evening was spent organizing and working on a job application.

today i've been focusing on organizing some of my firefox bookmarks and etsy stuff.

it's not that i feel old. or that i can't keep up with technology. i am quite adept with my iphone. if i had the money i would buy an ipad. i'd love a full version of photoshop, final draft, and final cut, but those are all quite pricey. and my hard drive is quite full. quite a bit of that is my photography, another chunk is from when i was cutting together a teaser trailer.


but hope is on the horizon. my husband agreed to let me use the breakfast nook as a craft room. the bedroom had worked for quite a few months, but in the last heatwave i discovered the kitchen and nook, lacking windows, was the coolest spot in the house. a recently transformed Anthropologie gift box serves as a home for our vintage map collection. i enjoyed the process of creating the storage container-getting organized is much more fun when there is craftiness involved.

well, enough rambling...back to crafting, organizing, and etsy-ing.
