messes....

Why is the mess in my bedroom due to playing "jewelry shop" and "music practic"e get in the way?  Why do I have to have a clean pallet in order to play and relax?  What is wrong with mess...

I was pretending to buy something and as I picked it up, Devreaux said, (out of her character)" are you going to put that away?"  How does she know I will "buy" the item and then go put it back into the bathroom to put a part of my soul at ease?

I stopped to ask myself this morning, "What is wrong with mess?"

I guess I worry that I will have to be the only one cleaning up, even though I enlist help, I know I will be in charge and it can be labor some to keep corralling to "troops" to clean up.  I also know I love beauty and when the living room looks a certain way, my insides sigh with a certain contentment.  Maybe there is a feeling that something is complete or done and so I am free to play.  There is a time and place for everything.  A clean home is good.  A messy home for play time is good.  I want to allow for both.
