Well, this week has been interesting for me. It was my first full week back from spring break so that within itself was a huge adjustment. The weather has been really crazy...sunny one day and raining the next, then freezing cold after that. I mean talk about pneumonia weather! It's funny watching the kids at school break out their summer attire one day then be dressed for the Swiss Alps the next! Anyway, today has been relaxing for me. I decided early on this morning that I was tired of my house looking a certain way. I have my "OCD"moments from time and this morning just so happened to be one. I got up early and started laundry. It's not that I don't like laundry...it's just that it can be an all day thing and clearly my ADD won't support me being dedicated it for more than one load!
I was also determined today to do something about my 2nd bedroom. It has turned into a dumping ground of some sort mainly because I no longer use it as my home office. Now that I have the lap top I barely go in that room. I used my desktop computer the first time in a long time and that was only because I did my taxes and the software is loaded on that computer. I know it has been maybe 9 months or so since I have actually used that computer. I am in the process of downsizing and getting rid of the somethings. I want to get rid of my corner desk because clearly it's a big piece of furniture and a lap top will look really strange on this big ole desk. I'm giving my desktop to my niece however I have to strip it down before I do it. It's a matter of me taking time out and staying focused long enough (once again the ADD kicks in) to get it done. I have already purchased another book case and a laptop desk to go in there. I will also like to purchase a futon for that room as well so that when guests come over I won't have to give up my bed or feel guilty about not giving up my bed!
Anyway, I digress (ADD moment)...so yes I was determined to clean up today. I cleaned my hall closet which is technically the linen closet but me being me managed to put all sorts of stuff in there. I cleaned it out though and got rid of the junk I had been holding on to. I also organized the closet in the 2nd bedroom. It has turned into a storage space seeing as though I house my extra bedding, Christmas supplies, junk from college, workout equipment (that I obviously don't use), and some pieces of clothing that I don't wear. It is a little better although at some point I need to really go in and throw most of that stuff away. I just can't find it in my heart to part with some of that stuff now.
Well, it is still raining outside. Kevin won't be off work for another hour and half. Bentley is asleep on her bed she obviously got the memo that this is GREAT sleeping weather. Oh well...I guess I will work on some homework since the rain won't go away.....

So, can I just say that trying to go to bed earlier is making me more
tired, it seems? I've been sitting here in front of the laptop for like 20
minutes wi...
