A little bit of down-time

Wow, instead of opening a post saying that life has been so crazy lately I'm actually going to open one saying how quiet and peaceful it's been- how odd.

But life has indeed been quiet and simple these last few days. On Tuesday the 7th I bid a sad farewell to my sister and her family as they embarked on this great adventure that is life, and then promptly kicked my sister out of my room. (Well, maybe that's a little harsh. My cousin and I removed all of her belongings from my room and placed them all down in hers--in an order we thought she'd enjoy no less)

Then on Wednesday I cleaned. Not a very deep cleaning- I'm sure that'll come later, just a cleaning.

But life has been very quiet--a little (dare I say it) maybe boring. Not that boring is bad, it's just different. Now I just work, I come home to a quiet house~ well, minus the very loud dogs~ and I just clean. And my room has so much space! It's crazy! I'm really not sure what to do with it all. That doesn't mean I want to share with anyone again- oh no- but I don't know what to do with it. Maybe an additional bookshelf, my current one is overflowing.

It was so funny to see the look on Pam's face when she saw her totes come in from the shed. "Wow, I'd forgotten I had this much stuff!" I couldn't actually blame her, I had too. But it was definately nice to have some things you'd forgotten about resurface (especially some fun movies like the 5 hour and 3 minute version of Pride and Prejudice-complete with booklet.)

Of course we've had some nice family time and Easter was a wonderful day complete with good church, good family, and good food (I especially enjoyed the good food- who wouldn't?)

Life is good, life is great! Now, if I can just get myself to that stinking gym every morning...

I'm just going to throw this out there - actually you had Pam's stuff out of your room before I had left. Yes when you first called to see what you could do to help me get packed up out of the basement I thought you were trying to help me. Then when it was done and I was running around getting packed into the truck and you two were busy doing all the rearranging downstairs I realized that you had an alterior motive. Can't say I blame you - glad to hear you are enjoying your room and belongings once again.

Thanks for reading my blog and leaving comments. If it weren't for you I'd think that I didn't have any readers and would probably stop writing. Thanks for the support! Love you!
