How long should one allow to plan a wedding? What if the prospective bride and groom are a doll and a bear? Can you do it without breaking the bank? Will you know when it is not work but really fun?  Fifteen days away and this sweet idea has a life of its own. Spare the details? Absolutely not.

Lew and I did many productive things earlier this month when it was raining in
Chester, VT.  We prepared our porch, now rescreened and ready for solar, thanks to our son-in-law Andy's fine carpentry work. Silvio was thrilled to see the "Eddie wicker furniture" that he remembered so well. He has several favored stations to manage comings and goings.

But more important that day, we put into practice what we learned from our friend Cindy who urged us to read "Clutter Busting," a book which reinforces the notation that if your creative space is "a mess," your creativity is at a standstill.  I was in that place. So I listened. And I acted.

And the result was phenomenal. Doing what I had to do worked.
