WOYWW Entry 2

I am glad the topic is what’s on your work desk Wednesday and not what did you get done on your work desk Wednesday.  I was out most of the day.  Marty and I met my sister and my brother in law for lunch in Vero-then did a few things and errands before getting home.  Then it was dinner time and other things were going on.

I will say this topic of work desk has inspired me. Knowing I would have to write about today.I found myself clearing/organizing my desk through the week.  I couldn’t have the same things on the desk from last week!  I even attacked the catchall at the back left of my desk-threw several things out that did not belong and got things to their rightful place.

So here we go…left to right

I still have out my Artists for Joy book from last nights meeting.  This  is a great group.  It is closed to new people now but will open again next year.  We end in a few weeks.  Then in the new year we will start The Artist’s Way again. Follow Meredith on instagram to learn more.

My Witty Women Bookclub has a Book Bingo going on for October.  I honestly don’t know what I can fill in but I need to get this filled out and posted.

Under the bingo card is my art journal.  I am VERY excited about the Lifebook painting I am planning to do.  I have it taped off and traced.  I hope to work on it tomorrow,

I have a pile of postcards ready to work on.  Years ago I did the 100 day project-mail one postcard a day.  These were hand painted (watercolor). I had taken a $10 class with Tracy Weinzapfel. I was practicing a lot and had lots of cards to share.  I was shocked how excited and thankful people were over a simple card.  I continued to make them.  I also found a couple ministries for sending cards and got involved.  It is something I can do.  I know I love getting mail.  I write cards for The World Needs More Love Letters , Love Notes Fairy , and Chemo Angels . It takes time, but it is rewarding.  I have nominated people to get cards and those that got them said they loved it. Also, iHanna swap is coming up. I need ten handmade cards for that.

My friend Misty and I made resin pieces on Saturday.  Now they have to be trimmed and filed and then I will share a better pic.  On the far right is my beautiful journal my stepdaughter made me, my calendar/planner and my five year journal.  I did not finish the five year journal in five years but that is ok.  When I think of it I open to a the current date, write the year, and a few sentences.  This will certainly be an interesting read someday.

So I did not get much done today at my desk BUT the hard part of being productive sometimes is getting ready to get things done. Well…the desk is ready. So after I volunteer at the book fair tomorrow-I am organized to get things done!

So what’s on your work desk? Whoa…finished typing at 11:58.
