I live alone, with a cat and bird for company. I rarely get company. In this situation it’s easy to fall into the “I’ll do it later” mode. So there’s a bit of mess piling up… I’ll get to it later… There’s no real motivation to keeps things tidy. I used to tell people my hobby was collecting dust and they should come over anytime and enjoy my collection.
Today I’ve got company coming so I got motivated to tidy up the place. It’s not that it takes all that long, it’s just that “I’ll do it later” thing that allows things to pile up. Maybe I need to invite people over more often. Then my place will be tidy all the time.
Yeah, right, sure…
Well, at least it’s tidy for today.

Sorry about the work, but if you want dust come to my computer hideaway. I don’t think you can compete from what I have seen.
Anyway BG Thur and Jam.
