First and foremost, YES...everyone needs a curled up dog in the vicinity of their writing space ❤️❤️❤️
Maybe your writing space looks more cluttered simply because your desk has a small surface. If it works for you then who's to say what you should or shouldn't do?
What self improvement journey am I on? Umm, sorting my head out after nearly two years of hell. And, I think your desk looks fine as it is, “Lived In”, is what it looks like, not sterile. I bet you can find everything, I’ve heard of people tidying up and then not being able to find anything.
Karen, It's nice to know I have support for my organizational habits.
I hope you are taking you journey one step at a time and considering each a small success. I just finished reading "The Cat's Table" by Michael Ondaatje. In it he writes, "There is a story, always ahead of you. Barely existing. Only gradually do you attach yourself to it and feed it. You discover the carapace that will contain and test your character. You find in this way the path of your life." Ondaatje has a way with words. The book was an enjoyable read. Take care.
Thanks for the book recommendation, I’ll look it up.
I’m feeling my way. Had a good mixed media class this afternoon, I’m working with metal embossing, brusho powder, acrylic paint, brush pens, glue gun art. One more class next week, but it’s something I’ll continue with.
Yesterday, I took the first steps to addressing a skills gap, that I’ve had for a long time. Maths! I struggled with it at school, only getting an average grade in the basic examination. All the complicated stuff, log tables, trigonometry, etc., luckily, this is not in the new syllabus, for our GCSE (the exams a 16 year old now takes in the UK), so I have more chance of passing it.
Hm, this must be where I get it from! The cluttered workspace, that is.
I'm in good company then! 😁

Thank you Kristi, that makes me feel better about my space. We shouldn't be bothered by what others might think, but we do.
