THE QUARANTINE HAS ALLOWED ME TO GET ORGANIZED. HOW HAS IT AFFECTED YOUR LIFE ?

     While I hope that all are well, I know that many are not. Some have lost family members, friends, jobs, etc. This is a tragedy that will long be remembered. For me though, so far, I don't personally know anyone who has been so badly affected and feel blessed to be able to say that. Also, there are many who are as stressed by the quarantine itself. Again, I feel blessed to say that I am the opposite of stressed.
     I have accomplished more during this quarantine than I can remember at any other time in my life. For the first week or so I did almost nothing but sleep. And then the adrenaline kicked in. I cleaned and organized four rooms in my house. The room I struggle with the most is my former living room which is now my craft room. During the cleaning marathon, I got all of the large items arranged. While I was very pleased with my accomplishment I found I was still struggling to find things.
     I took a break from the cleaning and organizing to make cards for #BEARLYART for children in foster care and for health care workers. I was so proud of my ability to make three dozen cards in just a couple of days. (then I saw where someone posted they had made hundreds of cards in the same amount of time) Darn those overachievers!
