    Wow, that's such a clean desk! ;) I know it was a staged shot. Haha :)
    I love your card, though I normally do not like the red and black color combo, I think you've pulled it off there! :)
    I seriously have to get some studying done but hope you get a chance to mess that desk back up again soon. :)

    It's nice sometimes isn't it, to just have a blank slate. Nothing pressing to be done, nothing screaming finish me! Sometimes a fresh start is just the ticket to make a big ol mess!

    So extremely tidy! I loved your factotum comment. My new word for the day. I am one!(I think..I've been just calling it "maid service" ..factotum sounds much more impressive. Saw that you are in Hendersonville...I'm about an hour south (G'ville). We visit H. from time to time. Lovely city. Nice to meet you...always nice to find a good nay-bor! Hugs
