Your welcome, Kleenex

For the life of me, I can't seem to get motivated or find the energy to do anything lately. The past few days I have been sleeping terribly and spending the entire day yawning and waiting for it to be bedtime. These allergies have been driving me nuts, as I sit here blowing my nose in between typing. I am hoping, make that praying, that with tomorrow being the official start of summer, that these allergies will go on vacation until their return in the fall. I have never had allergies this long before and I think I have single-handledly kept the Kleenex companies in business.

Now, I wouldn't mind sitting around the house lazily today, but seeing as Phil is moving in here tomorrow, there are things that need to get done today, such as straightening up in the bathroom and making sure my girly things aren't all over the place, and attacking this pile of laundry that is sitting here staring at me and taunting me. I've made space in here for him the best that I could, I want him to feel welcome and feel like this is his home too for the short time we will be staying here.

What I found interested in my quest to straighten things up around here and make space, is that I collect a lot of crap that I just don't need. I have thrown out so much junk these past two days, items that I have no use for that for some reason I stashed away in a drawer or on my desk. Instead of opening mail, or throwing away the stuff I don't want, I had it piled up. I swear, I am such a pack-rat. At least I have been keeping everything clean around here. In October of last year my bedroom went through a major overhaul, it was messy and out of control and once I brought in things to help me get organized, its been looking nice ever since. I just need to learn to part with the things I don't need.

Hm, I wonder if Phil is a pack rat like me? If so, we're in trouble!
