Lost Saturday

Yup, I feel like it's lost, but there'll be a Sunday ;-)
I started working again in the flat in the evening yesterday and decided to pause... at almost 7 am!! I am nuts, I know, but I just have to have the flat neat again. At 4am there were beads, threads, frames, magazines, books, charts and kits, and what have you, *everywhere*!! including my bed, the floor, my keyboard etc. Now most of it is sorted and put into boxes of various kind with really (I amazed myself LOL!) some sort of system. One thing I don't know how to solve is little insects that seem to love fabrics. They are everywhere where I store fabrics in the flat, after they die they leave little dry skins and some sort of miniature coccoons. They drive me nuts! They are even in the closed plastic boxes. I will attemt to put soap (because of the fragrance) and see if that helps.
Now, the floor is still covered with a zillion items but there are walkable "channels" for the furry kids ;-)
Do you ever have moments like this? I discovered I have *dozens* of lovely tuck pillows (I seem to have bought more on ebay last year than I cared to admit), twice the number of Silkweaver hand-dyed fabric packs than I thought (granted, half are not colors I really like for my usual projects, so they were stuck in the back of a big drawer), I have quite many charms and other nice stash. Far from what some ladies have, but I only discovered US stash about 4 years ago... I also prepared a huge pile of charts to sell on ebay. The situation being as it is, I can't afford buying stash still for the next half year, so I decided to sell a lot, making a copy of the occasional pattern I think I will stitch and especially get rid of some precious doubles. Lots of these are samplers and Birds of a Feather patterns, but none of the BOF charts are the expensive OOP found on ebay.
Waking up today, I was thinking what I really need as stash... Scissors, probably. I only have two small pairs received from stitching friends with fobs. Overdyes and silks - I wish I would win the lotto. I am sure I would spend half the sum (however high it would be) on these, much to H's despair! LOL Hand-dyed fabrics, always. Buying some charts/kits from both my wishlists, certainly. Isn't it awful that designers always have new patterns we need to have? :)
So I'm thinking... 2007 will be (decided!) more Mill Hill stitching (especially some samplers from a book I bought earlier this year), more Prairie Schooler and stitching runners and tablecloths again. I must have mentioned earlier that I really miss those. Especially since stoopid me gave all my most beautiful accomplishments to family. I wish I didn't! Except for one which my aunt always proudly exhibits, they are hidden somewhere in closets gathering dust. Not the fate I want for a piece it took me a year to finish.
I'm flying to Switzerland in a little bit than 2 weeks and I need to have H's afghan ready, so I have to talk to myself and quit working on other stuff till then.
Off to start the day at past 5pm (told you it's a lost day :( ). Thank you everyone for emails, comments and other messages in the past few days, I'll do my best to reply this week-end! I only have one small job on my desk for Monday, so Sunday should be free for catching up on email.
Have a nice week-end, everyone!

At 5pm, I also took out a big pile of clean (go figure!) clothes and bedclothes to wash again and iron, and a moment later, I noticed that Happy found a comfy place to sleep in! LOL
