I have to enjoy the moment....

because it doesn't last long. The problem, which is not what I really call it, is that I have a variety of crafts that I'm always dabbling in but the sewing and scrapbooking are the messiest. I have to be diligent about cleaning up after each project or the pieces/parts take over my space. I swear they jump into the first available clean space and literally shout, "play with me, play with me!" I know, I know, there are pieces on the table, but that's exactly what I'm talking about. They jumped there after I cleaned up the space.

I swapped a spare bed for some shelves that I intend to paint and hang. That should help with the piles that accumulate on the floor, but I'm thinking I need something with doors and drawers to stop all those pieces from jumping into my clean spaces. It's not like they have bitty fingers or opposable thumbs to open doors.
