muliple of musings….action required
Happy Sunday all!
Another cool day here in NB and looking outside I can see it has just started to snow again. Good grief I am tired of snow! The plow was by today before any snow started..maybe it was a self fulfilling prophecy? Maybe I need to find that plow and flatten it’s tires! Ha!
Today has not been a good day so far as weight loss goes. I have the munchies big time…and I need to buy more groceries, bread etc. Lots of previous foods that I shouldn’t eat but little of what I should eat!
After a bit I am going to make another budget and do up post dated cheques. I usually do not send out cheques but I need to make it and stick to it..just like my diet! Ha! Then after that I am finally going to transfer clothes out of the ugly blue dresser and utilize that armoire I put together last weekend!! It has been sitting empty all week and it is time to switch the room around and fill that up! Things like that, the declutter and positive planning always make my mind clearer and the emotions better. I read once when you live in a cluttered environment your mind is cluttered also. I can see that and I do feel like that. Since I am the one to do 90% of the cleaning here, I guess I need to take care of me!
The Nascar race is on so I can not vacuum or anything like that, but I will go into the bathroom and scrub that out, then hit my bedroom and get that all fresh and tidy. Take out the shark steamer and do the floors. That is a great little thing! I keep thinking I should really scrub down the walls too. Even though they were painted 5 months ago I think they should still be done…and perhaps even a recoat with a low sheen vs. flat for the hall. but then, I want to change the colors anyways. Ahhh lots of plans I just have to get up to it.
There are days the computer has been a Godsend of info, support etc and then days where I have literally let it eat up days if not weeks of time. Anyone else do that? Perhaps it is an easier way not to face what needs facing????? or perhaps it is a way that lets me be LAZY..which heaven knows I need to get out of and get doing my stuff..like finish the dozen renovation things that were started but not finished by the crappy contractor anthony smith (crook)
8:10pm Bathroom scrubbed down and de-cluttered..and my bedroom..well I now have 2 huge garbage bags full of things I decieded I just did not need anymore. I tend to be a packrat about some things, so this was a cleansing for me. I found some old photos and the last Christmas card Mom & Dad gave me..in which I cried over again. I decieded to put it in my photo-album…so I can remember it and the fact Mom and I kind of made up that Christmas..and to be glad…she passed away 12 days later. I still miss her alot.
I threw away socks, shirts and scarves I have had since the 80’s but somehow found a way to still wear to festive occasions. Time to relinquish some of that stuff! If I was into Oprah, I think she would say I could now bring things in. Or maybe I was so overdue at throwing things out even though I brought things in I still haven’t made up yet!
Laying in a freshly changed bed with clean blankets, having showered and finally listening to the eagles cd I got for Christmas 2 years ago typing on my laptop…what a relaxing way to end the weekend! *yes, I should be ashamed that I couldn’t find that cd until this evening….not so sure it matters though..I am not so crazy about it. A bit too lethargic for me at this point in time.
Tomorrow is another day..may we all wake up to a day filled with promise and hope….
Much love and may God bless y’all.

Don’t you love that “cleansed” feeling? Still, I guess if a cluttered environment makes for a cluttered mind, that would explain the chaos in my life!
I hear ya on that snow and cold! So sick of it. It’s snowing this morning and it was 55 degrees yesterday. Only in Kentucky…
