Footprints on the Moon

Not the greatest picture of me, but I snapped this before I headed out for the day and I just can’t be bothered to take another one. Besides, I’m so tired at the moment, I’m sure I couldn’t take one that would be an improvement anyways!

I didn’t get as much done this weekend as I originally planned. I did get all of my laundry done, including the sheets and blankets off of my bed. Since I have to haul all my laundry across town (or pay out the bum to do it downstairs), I really don’t wash my bed stuff as often as I ought to. So I’m very excited to go to bed and sleep on fresh sheets– that’s always fabulous. And since I didn’t sleep very well last night, that might be sooner rather than later. I did have interesting dreams last night though– a marriage proposal from a friend, and running from a tornado with my coworkers. In a school bus. That my grandmother was driving. I gotta start watching what I eat before bed! LOL

I had intended to really knock out my living room like I did my bedroom last weekend, but it just didn’t happen. I did make a good amount of progress, but I’d hoped to have it livable by now, and it seems to be more chaotic. I’m just overwhelmed. In the past, my method of cleaning the living room was to start cleaning and putting things away. When I found things I didn’t know what to do with, it got stowed away in the bedroom. That’s not optional this time, so when I find that box of bulk cable from every electronic device I’ve ever owned, I have to actually figure out what to do with it. Since I didn’t know what to do with all these cables, they’re still in a box on my coffee table.

I’m not very good at organizing and I have so much stuff in this small space that I’m just completely overwhelmed. I need someone to come in and tell me “throw that away.” “Sell that in the garage sale.” “Put that in the storage unit.” “You will never need that again!” I’ve purged quite a bit over the last several months, but I’m still a pack rat so there is a long way to go!

For now though, to Midlife Musings to see the rest of the SPS participants, and then BED. Where hopefully the dreams will be less unsettling lol
