Just-Believe

Wake up…… eat breakfast….drink coffee.. or wait .. reverse that .. well kinda anyhow..

 Wake up… DRINK COFFEE (got to be human before i eat or I will make a mess)

okay now what….. Staring at all the mounds of containers , baskets, & boxes….. My house is just filled with mounds of stuff that I need to sift through..  My garage is stuffed to capacity.. my living room is overcome with totes… and stuff and stuff and stuff.. and just recently we added a forest of plants.. Some of which arent looking too promising… 

We did manage…. to find my closet and organize it.. which was a good thing because something tells me very soon it will also be stuffed to capacity..

We clean daily.. but its like spot treatments.. vacuming , sweeping, around these mounds which are quite overwhelming…

My daughters room as become the catch all.. for my old matress boxspring and headboard.. We lost her one day in there.. i looked around the matress and behold it was her… laying on the other side..

I think we have been working on this for like 2 weeks.. and it doesnt even seem like we have made a dent..

So the moral to this story is….. I have no freakin clue.. but I see garage sale signs going up around the neighborhood in the future…

It is the fourth…. Usually by now we have all our fesitive red white and blue on and are on our way to some festive party with sparklers and fireworks…

 This years well.. NADA…. cant say im upset.. not feeling very FESTIVE these days..

We didnt get any usual invites to any 4th of july parties oh well.. guess we just dont have enough friends that care enough to invite us…. or hey maybe none of them are very festive feeling either….  

I do have to admit it seems pretty wrong a bunch of americans sitting around doing nothing.. we are having a bbq… and I did watch something on the history channel early this morning about George washington and the war…. which from what i gathered at that point he pretty much screwed up……… so after that I didnt have much interest..

 So I took a nap and then woke up and the smells of bbq are in the air… too bad im not very hungry…..

Some patriart i am… I tell ya…

I found a great newYahoo gadget for those who are a bit restricted on their home or work computers.. http://webmessenger.yahoo.com/  try it out it rocks..

Overwhelmed……… what does that word mean to you??   To me….   Its a huge mountain of garbage I have to sift thru in order to find some order in this life….

I wonder if it is possible to illiminate that from my vocabulary or hey even the dictionary. Cus geee wizards Im tired of feeling that way..

And I seem to be overwhelmed by the strangest things. Actually not even just strange lets just say things that are a bit in disaray and need to be organized .. and well As stated in about DANI section I am not organized.  Trying to decided a color to wear or, sometimes simple like finding my way through the junk drawer…..   Woah its like being closterphobic…

Im OVERWELMEDPHOBIC.. if thats even a word…… LOL…

I think i might start up a support group.. maybe IKEA can come and give tips to helping out the disorganization of people who cannot seem to get their lives organized..

Anyhow.. Im working on getting un overwhelmed and organized..  taking baby steps in the process.. I will have to post some pictures later when i get it all organized.. Not sure if i can show you the before pics.. might make you feel overwhelmed just lookin at it….LOL

Storm 2Originally uploaded by ldymouse

OMG… You would think the sky was falling this day… Looks like the eye of a hurricane.. But nope just a Normal Illinois Storm approaching.. It rained about 30 mins then pooof all gone!!!!…

I was sure ready to head for the hills.. I tell ya..

Ahh the dreaded License renew… Just look at that Picture..!! Who the heck takes a great photo for their License like that???

MEEEEEEEEEEEEE thats who..

Accept this was a once in a lifetime thing.. and well as you can see its way overdue… And im sure the old… BUT officer…. I think I just cant bear to part with the picture will work to getting it taken away for good.. But I tell ya im keepin the darn ID..  Just to remember It is possible for me to take a half way decent picture.. Enjoy the view I will probably not post my new one..

Getting a new one is on my list of things to do just not sure when..LOL.. but if i do.. I doubt i Can duplicate this beauty!!

I keep wondering where all this stuff is going..   I have 62 years worth of stuff to divide and conquer..    BUT my biggest question is …. where has it gone and where will it go?? I mean really… You unpack it.. then repack it.. Then you question yourself…. Where is that thing??  then someone says what thing.. You know what your talking about .. they dont have a clue .. so you repeat.. YOU KNOW THAT THINGY I HAD…  of course the name of the object completely illudes your lil brain..

So you give up .. and start to search only to realize that was geez boxes away from the last time you spotted it..

Sometimes I wonder why do people have so much stuff?? why do we need it??

My mom would keep things.. for JUST IN CASE… i guess she always thought hey one day I will be stuck in during a long winter storm and need some things to do..    Well that would have been a heck of long storm mom I surely have to say…

I wonder sometimes really what is the purpose of having so many things.. that you will probably never use?? Im asking myself this daily , hourly ,  minutely to be exact.. But then hey how can you throw away a perfectly good sewing pattern that might one day fit your grandkids.. LOL.. im only 34..but hey one day …… just one day right???

Oh help me!!!

Im trying very hard not to take to much and be stuck with too much stuff.. but even a lil more than I already own seems to be tooooo much…

Its just stuff.. really right??? Masking tape, glue, sewing needles , thread, paint, teddy bears, make up, …… you mean you will never need those things?? oooh so then you keep it.. and later ask the same question.. WHERE DID THAT GO??? cus you will never remember this wonderful object you kept incase just that one day you need it.. But the place of residence for this object will completely illude you ..

An Ode To The Daily Grind…

Wake up………..** Make Coffee**…… wait impatiently for it to brew… Oh it never brews fast enough….  Drink coffee….. Feeling Human NOW……. Drink more coffee…… Feeling even more human…..

Time to wonder what the kids are up to.. Oh yah….. thats right seats were planted on the puters playing thier favorite game……. (as minutes ealier i walked passed in a zombie like state)  The Sims…..  Still havent heard a word from them….. I should be happy ……

Okay a run upstairs to check… The packages are secure along with the house…. phew sit back down Drink more coffee……   at this point i think I need some more …. so get up for a refill….  Oh sit down…..   but ut oh.. not enough sugar have to get up yet again……

Ahh finally just right sit down and drink and do nothing.. Nothing isnt good enough tho… but I havent got the energy to do much of anything so Nothing will just have to do…

OOH an apiphany comes to me… YES…… Catch the lastest episode of OPRAH….. that always puts you in a motivated mood….hahaha yah right… 

At this point I think an atomic bomb could go off and I probably wouldnt want to go anywhere.. but thats okay… I have no where to go anyhow….

Trying to get inspiration lately is Like trying to pry a bone from a hungry dog.. Just aint worth trying… LOL…

As I sit and do nothing and finish my OPRAH episode I think… hmmmm..  I should do something but what???

HA … I got it…. go to OPRAH. com… LOL.. 

One thing leads to another next thing ya know I am at Dr. phils site..  guess im feeling spongelike… in need of obsorbing needless information about others..

Okay now what…. twiddling thumbs….. well i guess all this nothing has made me tired i feel like I need a NAP……  

OMG!!!  what has my life come to coffee…..oprah…..and afternoon naps……   Is this pathetic?

HECK YAH…

But whats a girl to do…. maybe tommorrow I will find some bon bons.. what ever they are… seems to be the thing.. that goes with doing nothing..
