Festival Organization & Adult ADHD

No doubt when this festival is all over I will write a big ole' essay on the various triumphs and tragedies and things learned about organization.  Thankfully, I am very far, mood-wise, from where I was just a week ago.  Oh, the joys of possessing a brain prone to such wide arcs.  

I am utterly and completely in the midst of detailed work of putting together musicians and venues.  Even writing this essay is taking me away from doing work that I need to be doing NOW but I wanted to fit in an essay and update even if it took 10 minutes away from working.  Below is a photo I took this past Sunday working away at my parents' dining room table.  

  
Those are porches and music acts being laid and organized.  It took me a long time mentally to get to that point and there was an unacceptable level of anxiety that I experienced for days  beforehand but I did indeed arrive at a place of productive work and it was immensely satisfying.  I now feel that in just about anything I do where I need to get The Big Picture laying things out on a table is the way to go.  Computer screen be damned.  

Now back to work.
