Reclamation
12.15.06 (8:53 am)   [edit]

A tidy home makes for a tidy life, I think.

I have SO much clutter. It's starting to annoy me, so I am going to try getting rid of it slowly. Last night, I cleared off my dining table! All I have left on it is a pile of birthday cards to give out!! (I really need a space in my study for things like that!) 

When I moved into my place, I envisioned a minimalist look...I'd have a vase of fresh flowers on the dining table all the time, and there'd be candles throughout. Right now, lighting candles would be hazardous! Piles of things are everywhere! But last night, I got this burst of energy. The dining table took an hour?? I was so wired that I couldn't fall asleep until about 3. I also tidied up my bathroom cupboard, but it is still on the messy side.

And more car woes. If I could even afford a down payment for a car, I'd go for it right now. I'm bringing my car in for servicing next week, and that is going to be a big chunk of change. And since it's a lengthy job, I have to rent a car, too!!!!! What a way to go for a birthday. MWUAHAHA :-(

"A tidy home makes for a tidy life" - RIGHT ON! I constantly find myself chanting "Cleanliness is next to Godliness" and the freaky thing is, I believe it. LOL. I have experienced the same sort of wiredness where you just work and work and work like a busy little bee at the oddest hours. But for tidiness, I think some weirdness is warranted. I hope your car woes are resolved.

Thanks! I also did some major cleaning to parts of my place this weekend. It feels so good to see my table tops again!

My car isn't too old, but there are some things that could be fixed (like missing the cover to my cruise control buttons and some paint touchups). I think I could trade it in, but it won't be enough for a significant down payment. I still need to save!

Well, if public transit is good where you are, you might need to have a car :) We also have a car co-op program here, which seems to work really well if you don't need to drive often!

I can identify with the "new tablecloth" (the "stuff") on the diningroom table.
I just don't know how and why it piles up!
I am trying so hard to clean up myself but I have this strange addiction to reading and writing!

Are you like me in that I don't like putting things away?? *L* I'm also a packrat...so my dining table becomes my "to file" area. But once I cleared everything away, I've not wanted to clutter it up again!!
