Cleaning Up and Other Things…

Don’t you just hate it when your post disappears for some reason? And wham, you have to rewrite it? I hate that.

I have been cleaning all day. We have lived here for almost a year, and there are still boxes. I can’t take it any more, and if that stuff has been in a box for a year and I haven’t missed it, I don’t need it anyways! I went to Wal-Mart and got a new shelf for my bedroom closet so I could organize my sweaters and other goodies. Decided I need a break though, so I don’t get burned out! I would like to go through a box a night when I am home, tossing almost everything. I have to go through them though, because in the past I have been notarious for putting things that I *need* to save in with junk. Ugh.

I forgot to mention yesterday – if you didn’t already, check out the cover of the Village Voice. It was such a touching photo – focused on the sadness, but still a beautiful photo. Last night I watched 28 Days (which I thought was pretty good, worth a watch, but nothing fabulous) and like Fat Seanny, I was breathless for a second or two when the scene came up where they are driving in to the city and you see the skyline with the prominent World Trade Center Towers – and to think, they are not there any more… It’s still so surreal.

I wish I knew how to sew, I would participate in the USA Quilt. Maybe I will see if my mom will make a square for our family.

I had better get back to work – I have a bunch of boxes to take out to the trash, and then I need to set up my “regular” computer. I brought it home last week, new hard drive, more RAM, all ready to go! I have to post more pictures from this weekend, and then have to finish up my Freshly Made design for Erika. Whew! Lots to do! But of course it feels good every time I get to check something off of my “To Do” list!
