Mama’s Desk Before and After

March is the month where I get the most energy, the most inspiration, the most done, and my least favorite, the most frustrated.

Have you ever read the children’s book, Olivia? If you have then you’ll understand if I say March is the month where I wear myself out.

My husband programs a local film festival and we are in countdown mode. Do we have all the films in? Do the visiting filmmakers need or have lodging? Have all necessary communications gone out to liaisons? Does our hospitality coordinator need anything? And the list goes on . . .but we love it.

This year, I discovered though that I usually get a surge of energy and unfortunately most of it stays in my head and on paper, but crafting often takes a backseat to the film festival. So I thought maybe, just maybe, if I can control one or two areas during this time I will feel a little less like Olivia. Last week it was my bathroom counter, this week it’s my desk. Below is the Before shot for good measure.
