I\u2019m purging. It\u2019s time to do an upgrade in my office\u2014new paint, new flooring, new look. Ever try to move an office? It\u2019s not an easy task. You probably accumulate more stuff in a home office than in any other room in the house. We stripped the kitchen and service porch a few years ago, repainted and added new cabinets. That was a huge job. But I\u2019m afraid the office remodel will be even larger.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot of stuff in here that no longer relates to the work I\u2019m doing. And with technology, there are mountains of material I no longer need to hold onto. So, little by little, in preparation for the renovation, I\u2019m purging. And I have to tell you, it feels good. Out with the old and in with what\u2019s left and what\u2019s still relevant to my current work.<\/p>\n

Any tips for me and others who are considering such a project? Have you been there, done that? What did you learn from the process?<\/p>\n

In the meantime, I\u2019m now the proud author of my 12th<\/sup> Klepto Cat Mystery. The Purrfect Lie<\/em><\/strong> is now available for your Kindle.<\/p>\n

Description: When the Iveys and the Sheridans find a deathbed confession letter, Savannah and her Aunt Margaret spring into action. Is Savannah\u2019s imagination playing tricks on her or has she stumbled upon the unaware kidnap victim mentioned in the letter? In the meantime, there\u2019s trouble at the Sheridans\u2019 cat shelter and Rags, the kleptomaniac cat, leaps right into the middle of the tangled mess. Only the cat knows who\u2019s putting his feline friends in danger. Meet some interesting new characters in this story and be prepared to laugh and to cry. The feel-good ending is worth the admission price of this book.<\/p>\n
