Work Work Work....

Well, it's Saturday and I have to do so much work around this house...just to get it in living order. Laundry is nowhere near the same task as my dryer broke the day we moved in...so I have to hang everything, which means it takes much longer to dry my clothes...that sucks because then I can't wash as much at any given time. If I could afford a dryer, that would help...I guess I will have to look for one on Kijiji or something.

As Ma Petite Soeur put it in her previous comment...I have also been a huge slacker with my scrapbooking. And well....with the new place in such disarray, it doesn't look hopeful that I can get much done any time soon.

The kids can mess this place up faster than you can say "clean this mess up!" And there is only one me and two of them...it gets discouraging..I hate always barking at them to pick up after themselves. I don't want them to remember me as some kind of housework Nazi. This leaves me torn, because I need to teach them responsibility and such...but I am trapped between that and guilt. It sucks...in an ideal world none of us would have to clean up or spend ridiculous amounts of time doing tedious crap! Alas, we don't live in that ideal world now do we?

Tomorrow I am going to my son' s Dad's place for supper and to wire some internet connection and stuff...it seems I am always doing other stuff first. I wonder if that is a procrastination tactic?

I have to call an insurance adjuster as well, some woman backed into my car in the parking lot at work the other day leaving a small dent in the bumper. Not a big deal really, but I would like it fixed, which takes time away from something else I could have been doing.

When does it ever end?

On a more positive note...I actually didn't have a bad week at work this week. I was there every day of the week and was actually productive, which is kind of cool...I haven't felt productive in a long time. I can't wait to find out if I get to move anytime soon...where I will actually be appreciated...well here's hoping I will anyway! :)

So gotta run...trying not to make this my life's work and I have pictures to hang around the house to get the stuff off the floors..not to mention, boxes to unpack.

Later Days,
Annie

Dear Annie,

So your stuff is all packed in boxes. One thing that is not packed is your computer and your digital photos. Download those bad boys and print out what you are going to use in your Christmas layouts. Due date: Feb 21st. Go!
