No further progress

There are no photos to be had yet of my revitalised study... because it is as yet still in the same unrevitalised condition! I'm hoping to get it finished early this week so I can enjoy this potentially beneficial space - not least my lovely old oak chair for reading in and a quiet corner set aside for prayer. I will be very pleased when order is brought forth from chaos!
I find myself especially hoping to get things straightened out as Christmas approaches - I don't make a big thing about New Year resolutions - but I do like to make another attempt at overcoming at least a few of my shortcomings at regular intervals, and New Year is as good a time as any to make some attempt - with God's help. At least, with God, we can take the opportunity for a new start any day of the year and not just on the 1st January - just one of his great gifts.
Still, even with all these good intentions, I'd love to be able to click my fingers like Mary Poppins and watch the papers file themselves, or perhaps to wake up and find that the elves had been in and done it all (remember 'the elves and the shoemaker'?) for me!
