So -- I've been pretty bad about getting rid of clutter in my bedroom -- it's building up actually.
The plan is to attack it this weekend -- but as you can see -- I'd rather write about it now, than actally do it...
I just haven't been in the mood -- I know shocking, I'll clean anyone elses mess but my own. I have 4 heaping laundry baskets and a couple random piles -- it's all clean, some is even folded -- I just want it to magically find it's way on to hangers and into drawers... but Tinkerbell or Mary Poppins is not coming to my rescue and so it sits -- and grows. Plus --- another part is that a lot of it doesn't fit -- it might be as little as 5 pounds from fitting -- or as much as 20 pounds from fitting -- and I'm sure there is a few pairs of pants that will never go past my knee caps again...
I can't part with it since I like it - and I'm hopefully that Mary Poppins or Tinkerbell will not only help me with my laundry but auto-transplant me to the gym and make me work out and stop me from buying tasty sweet or carbo-liscious treats.
I couldn't find the sheets I wanted to put on my bed so I had fleece sheets on... but then after a couple nights -- I realized hey It's spring now -- fleece sheets are not the proper bedding attire -- Miss Emily Post would be so pissed at me. So now -- I am equally taboo and have miss matched sheets... I think the other halves are buried somewhere under my laundry -- but alas I am not motivated to look that hard.
The garbage -- is also building up -- the floor has now become a drawer if you will -- empty tic tac boxes -- clothing tags from when I stocked up on polos for work -- hangers that landed on the floor and some how I didn't have the energy to pick them up at the time. Empty pregnancy test boxes from a couple monthes ago when I was in freak out mode just finally made it to the trash... my home made card crap -- who has time to make homemade cards? Well I do, if I wasn't so unmotivated to pick them up from the floor. Water color paper and paints and paintbrushes -- books I've finished reading take up a corner on the floor -- why I couldn't put them in the bookcase is they are leaning up against is beyond me, could be that my junk mail is taking over the bookcase -- I don't know why I save random solicitations... ads etc I probably meant to make a little pile of credit card offers and then shred them -- but I forgot... Laziness -- apathy to clutter? I'll just do it later -- it's my new motto -- diet coke cans get discgard weekly -- otherwise my room would be silver and reflective... not good.
I should also clean out the car- more diet coke cans there --- random directions floating around the seats - glove box and trunk -- with reciepts and empty packs of gum, cds that got tucked somewhere or are floating under seats with my snowbrush -- I think the snow brush can go in the trunk -- with the 20 pairs of shoes-- most of which are ones that hurt my feet or require a pedicure.
That's another thing -- I should go get a pedicure and manicure -- again too much work. I also need an eyebrow wax and to shave my legs --
So that's the goal this weekend -- to clean and get organized - get pretty-- but it might be a better idea to take a nap -- read a book -- watch grass grow -- anything but just get to it.
