Getting down and dirty

My problem of trying to get creative is moving past the tedious, endless, boring, drudgery chore stuff, before I am able to hit the glorious and juicy, sloppy, grungy painting or building - what I call art making pleasure.  I'm sure some of you who are creative probably have this done to a science or a maid to get the work done. I need a few elves to come by while Bellini and I are slumbering to help me out. The problem stems from having my studio share the space along side my living space. I get distracted from my artwork to go kill a dust bunny in a corner that is taking over a larger pile of debris. No, I am not a slob. Then I would be able to ignore the dust, dirty dishes and assorted piles that accumulate while I work. Instead, I work, make a mess and then spend an hour cleaning. Make another mess, spend a half hour cleaning and so on. I've decided that I lost the battle on dusting for the most part and just will stick to keeping the dishes clean.
