Back in the saddle

The heat wave broke on Wednesday, but it left me wiped out for the entire week.  The fall out is I was too hot and tired to work on my daily 10 minutes during the hot days (Saturday-Tuesday), and too exhausted to start up again Wednesday and Thursday.  I left work a couple hours early today, came home and took a nap.  I obviously needed it because it took me awhile to find my car in the parking lot.  And even when I did, I didn’t remember parking in that general area.

After the nap and some dinner, I went ahead and worked in my closet for 10 minutes.  Oh my goodness!  I wonder how many 10 minutes I’ll have to spend  on it before it becomes “presentable.”  The one problem I noticed this evening is that the air is very still (& stale) in there.  Since it’s just off the bathroom, perhaps turning on the vent fan would help.  Or maybe I can put one of the portable fans in there for awhile to air it out.

Tomorrow is “Fashion Day” on QVC.  Even though my closet is jammed, I still need a few new pieces to replace older items and freshen up the wardrobe.  I’m afraid I’ll buy too many things that I don’t really need.  Of course, I could simply not watch, but I’m sure at some point I’ll tune in.  The good thing is that most of the summer items presented are too casual for my needs; and the more professional clothes are numbered sizes (which don’t fit me at this point) rather than the more generic S-M-L category.

I’ve been good about not buying needless things this week, knowing I need to get rid of and organize the things I already have before I bring more stuff into the house.  Hopefully that thinking will prevail tomorrow.  Tune in on Sunday to find out if I was successful.

    Hey, Gailann, you’re making it hard to follow you online. ;)

    I did some decluttering of my closet last Fall. What prompted me was that I had to decide which clothes I should have fitted after I had been dieting for a few months and as I was there, I got rid of items I had no hope of ever wearing again.

    And just when I decided that I had to declutter my online life by deleting accounts with services that I’m not using, my brother registered our family name as a domain name and assigned me some space for my personal use (as well as a new email address).

    Ha! Not to worry, this is an account specifically for decluttering and fixing up the home. (I actually have more plans for it.) I still plan to write at SoC II, I just haven’t had the energy.

    And yeah, I have to unclutter my online life as well. *sigh*
