Ramblings

Every night I sink into bed with the sombering thought that tomorrow I'll get to the stuff I didn't get to today.

This morning I got to some stuff I didn't think about last night but has accumulated in the back corner of my mind reserved for the never-ending to-do list.

Like washing the outside windows. Well, washing...it was more like take the hose and spray it down and water the front garden while you're at it kind of thing.

We got a new vacuum cleaner. A Miele S4000 and it has an airtight HEPA filter. The old one was a Beaumark brand without a filter and it was noisy and heavy. Did I mention it didn't have a filter?

The dog hair was/is still driving me mental.

This new toy, my special, little, new, quiet, filtered vaccuum cleaner is sitting in the middle of the livingroom floor beckoning me to start sucking.

Except there is so much clutter and crap everywhere I can't possibly begin. Why bother...it won't to any good anyway.

And with the nice weather we've been having, I have not felt like staying indoors and putting away clutter.

Right now, I'm staring at a steaming hot cup of coffee and waiting for the tape to finish taping. I want to watch last night's Y&R which is playing today on another channel. It's my one little guilty pleasure. Sit, drink coffee, watch Y&R and relax for a bit. I think I deserve it considering I had a toddler helping me spray the windows (among other things) all morning.

Did I mention he's on his third outfit, and it's only naptime??

Can't wait for the permanent summer weather to stick around so I can dress him in less.
