It’s impossible to write in a disorganized mess. I had a smaller den and a smaller closet in my den in VA, but somehow I have less order in this one. The only improvement is that I have more and bigger booksshelves, so I have most all my books on the shelves. (The big pile by the green ottomon are books from downstairs that I was cataloging.) I need to figure out what doesn’t need to be in here and find places for them.

You can see a plastic container and theres a box just out of sight next to the red books. Violin and erhu are next to the desk chair and a paint easel out of sight to the lft. And I found another “den” box while clearing out some of the craft clutter!
