Ahhhh... spring
Mar. 27th, 2004 03:23 pmBeing possessed of both time and energy I have devoted today to, believe it or not, Spring Cleaning.
I have no idea how far I'll get with this, as I suspect many of my plans for today are going to involve more time than I have to work with, but on the other hand so far I've taken some stuff down to storage, gotten rid of 4 garbage bags worth of crud and even managed to dig out a few corners of the house that were being lost to me simply tossing stuff into them to deal with later.
I'm not done yet in terms of my goals for the day, and already I'm hungry and going to do a break for lunch, but still, even if I don't do all of it I'm pleased to have made some progress.
And can I just say it's amazing how many random pieces of paper you keep on your desk when you put them down and forget what was on them? Far too many things were taking up space that I couldn't even remember why I was holding them. Bad me. Bad, bad me.
Once this is all done I shall be treating myself to the "so Kosher it's good enough for Passover" meal of pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon. This past week has found me eating far too many things which essentially amount to just being bread, so by last night my body was demanding that I either explore other avenues of the food pyramid or it was going to leave me and try to find a more suitable host for it. Last night was a HUGE salad, which helped with the craving for fresh veggies, and tonight will be the pork because it's either that or mainline a steak directly into my veins. And I'm not saying I'm ruling that second possibility out for later.
Will try to get some writing done tonight if I can, and if the cats don't drive me completely insane in the meanwhile (all the windows in the house are open so they're running back and forth like maniacs). And in the meanwhile I keep pondering if I have the ability to make things for the con suite for Connexions or if my feeling that I should do so is just another form of my packing anxiety. We shall see.
