Name It and Claim It
Desk Update:
I found my calendar! And the binder for my WIP!
The mess is organized, and I now have three stacks. It took me 15 minutes a night on three separate nights to get this far.
One of the stacks is the next chapter to edit of my WIP. One is things I have to read, including the book I'm about to finish and things about the dog training we're involved with now. And more.
The other stack is the binder for my WIP. Look at it! I moved things out a little so you can see. LOTS to do here to get this organized. Do I hear side bets for the number of nights it will take me to complete this project?
Another update Monday.
Maybe I'll have some of the binder organized. Now . . . you know I have to pull things out and make a mess while I work on it. Right?

Kwik FAQs:
The Remington typewriter and Remington guns - rifles/shotguns/etc. - were part of the same Remington company. Who said words can't hurt you?
Western artist Frederic Remington was not part of the typewriter/gun family.
Neither was TV private investigator Remington Steele.
Even though steel was used in those Remington guns and typewriters.

Thoughts in Progress
I think I need to set a day aside to do nothing but organize things.

Tossing It Out
Arlee - I'm working on this for only 15 minutes each evening. When/if I ever finish, I can use those same 15 minutes or less to keep things organized. That's my plan. Stay tuned :)
Lydia - You know how writers are :)
Conda - Oh, yeah . . .
CD
Sheila - I may try Kwik FAQs again if my brain ever lands on something else fun. Scroll down to Monday's post to see the 'before' photo. It shows the real me :)
Talli - See the above note to Sheila - LOL.
Karen - I'm so laughing. I hate housecleaning. After my binder is finished, I'm going to dust my desk. Now that all the clutter is controlled, that will be necessary more often. Achoo!
Joanne - Maybe. The past few days have been productive, but it's too early to tell for sure. I hope in a few weeks I can give it two thumbs up.
Jane - I know that feeling! But it's nice.
Maryanne - Wow! I'm impressed :) It would've taken me much longer to finish that project. I do OK sorting. Less OK figuring out 'exactly' what to do with something so I know where it is.
Anyway, what i said was although i congratulate you on your clean desk, I'm really more grateful for the Remington Steele reference as that took me back to a really good place. Ah....Pierce Brosnan...ah....
VR - It's only polished because it's been covered with paper for months since the last time I cleaned it.
Aubrie - Well, you saw the before picture of mine. If I can do this, so can you.
Straight From Hel
Helen - Thanks. That's my goal.
