Where is my watercolor painting

Yesterday i walked into my studio prepared to play with my paints for Inspire me Thursday and look what transpired.. P1000515
I decided it was imperative that i organize my studio and the only way to do that was to put everything that was on a shelf or in a cabinet on the floor. I also enjoyed moments of nostalgia as I sorted through box after box. I was elated when I discovered my postcards of my favorite rock groups (Talking Heads, David Bowie, Dire Straits etc.) I bought in London over twenty years when i spent 6 weeks backpacking Europe with Susan( who is still a best friend today). Now I almost got up in search of those photo albums but decided I needed to stay focused.

In this last picture you can see the painting I was supposed to be working on laying on the floor encircled by my "studio chaos".
I always find it difficult in the time before school starts to stay focused. I guess, the majority of my mental, emotional and physical energy is being used to help four children get organized for school. This year each child is in a different school with different schedules. I fear it will be a year of mixing up teachers, schedules, homework assignments etc. I just pray by days end that Allison, PJ, Megan, and Justin are each fast asleep in their own bed.

Sometimes, studio chaos is a necessity. It is amazing what we can dust off for inspiration.
