still pecking away at it

[moropus]

And that's what this is basically. I'm just slowly pecking away at the mess and putting things away and trying to organize. Great piles of stuff have left the house, and great piles of stuff are still waiting to be examined.

I just started a job where all the people are friendly and I like them and they like me and I'm terrified one of them will suddenly pop in unannounced. That's a great motivator. Nobody has been allowed in here for several months.
