Hump Day Poll
Good day to you all on this last Wednesday of August! We have been in the declutter mindset but many of you know I get overwhelmed by where the heck to start because of our small, less than 1000 sq ft abode. I've gotten help from things like sliding baskets in cabinets, little things that help with space like mug stackers for mugs, and of course little pantries to be able to stock up on stable stuff when sales roll around. Those things help when you've got a home in mind but for me, it's how to mentally push myself to start because it all looks so untacklable. (New word alert.) One of the best pieces of advice I ever got on that front was from my friend who said to tackle one small section at a time. Like, say in your kitchen - do 1/4 of the total countertop area. If you do more than that, all the better but you don't have to do anymore than a 12" space at a time. I've also heard setting a timer for 10 minu...
Seeing Lazer tag fully intact in its box was awesome. And for $35 it was a deal but you really can't play that by yourself so rather useless. Still there is nothing like having the box in your hands to remind you of what it felt like Christmas morning when you opened that very thing. Happy February everybody!
ReplyDeleteHow did it get to be February already? Geesh it's going fast.
ReplyDeleteErrands, housework, the usual. A new fitness center opened in town though and yesterday I went in for a lesson on how to use the equipment. I'm not sure how often I'll make it, but it has to be at least 10x per month to make it worthwhile so that's my goal.
Saturday I had a memorial service to go to out in the suburbs and that was a really wonderful ceremony. I didn't get home until mid-afternoon and just felt plain pooped. I felt that way all day yesterday and was pretty nauseated, so I didn't get much accomplished. I did managed to change out my c-pap hose that arrived in the mail and was able to use it for the first time in months. And boy what a difference! I managed to sleep roughly 6 straight hours and have more energy today than I've had in probably 4 months. I'm still struggling with this pain near my sternum and will bring it up to the doc when I see her. I have a load of laundry going, will run out for a couple of items I forgot at the grocery store, then have an appointment at the YMCA with a gal who's going to show me around and help me set some things up. Now I'm paying bills for the month to get that off my plate for the week. Fun, fun... =o)
