The progress is steady in my closet. I have been posting real-time updates on our Instagram story, but it is hard to describe tasks in ten-second segments. Right now, the project is on target for a reveal next week. It's time. Ten days in, and I am good and tired of seeing the mini explosion of…

I think I have mentioned this before, but I tend to be a "piler." If I set an organizational system in place, I am good at following it. However, in the absence of such a system, I just make piles, and piles, and piles. It is probably one of the reasons why I am ruthless…
