It's been a while...
since my last post here in the great blogosphere. Not for lack of content, I might add, but due to an extremely busy life. I'm not complaining or offering up excuses, just explaining my lack of philosophical wisdom and intellectual wit.
Now, I'm done blowing smoke up your skirts so you can relax! ~L~
I'm on a vacation this week. Yeah! I wake up with gusto and hurridly search for the ever growing "to do" list that I've been compiling for the last month. The list of things to do "if I ever get more than just a weekend" list.
Monday morning hits and I jump out of bed at the crack of dawn, jump in to my workout clothes and head for the gym cuz "gosh darnnit, I can workout and get it over with for the day." It proved to be a good thing cuz I woke up a little bit on the "blue" side. Why? Hell if I know...might be hormones, might be feeling defeated by the "to do" list that hasn't even gotten one thing checked off of it. Anywho, the workout proved to be the anecdote as I came home and immediately tore apart my living room and scoured it from top to bottom. I cleared out the clutter and rearranged furniture, dusted, vacuumed, and polished to my hearts content. All of this took place, I might add, BEFORE lunch! How do you like those apples?!
Next up? The dreaded "catch all" space by my patio doors. Hubs like to think of this as his holding grounds for things "he might need some day." I call it junk! I dive in head first and tackle that project with gusto and complete it in record time. Once more hauling out the clutter that I'm sure will find a home someday (after it gets moved out of my basement, MY holding bin for good stuff that "might get used some day.") Am I the ONLY one that has one of those places?
Tuesday proved to be even more productive (if you can believe that!) as I decided to test my hanging skills by hanging from my kitchen cabinetry whilst washing down walls and cabinets. Tough job but mostly finished with the exception of wiping out and restoring order to the lower cabinets. (Puts that on the next list of things to do)
Wednesday? I didn't do anything on the house cleaning front, but had a day booked full of appointments in town. Wished that would have been saved for Friday, because today I have gotten absolutely nothing accomplished. I lost my momentum. On a positive note, I helped my mother-in-law with a project, managed a 2 hour workout at the gym, and spent a lovely hour with Brooke for a reflexology appointment (heaven, pureeeee heaven!)
I must be nuts to spend my vacation doing the domestic diva thing - yet again. I do this quite frequently though. I've put it down to the fact that I am a "Procrastinating Perfectionist." (Directs you to earlier blog entries regarding this rare and incurable disease).
On the list for tomorrow? Well, I have three rooms to tackle, and three days before I go back to work. Hmmmmmmmmm - anyone placing any bets on what I do??
