Lifes Like That

Well I had a pretty busy week this week. I started my spring cleaning and am really happy to report that I was able to get a lot of things accomplished. It’s quite amazing actually how much a person can get done when they have the entire house to themselves for an entire week. I was able to get my entire bedroom cleaned and rearranged. I through out a lot of old clothes and shoes. Now I really need to go out and purchase some more Beautifeel shoes. That’s the purpose of spring cleaning now isn’t it?? But since today is Friday, I will be done my cleaning for this week. I have to work tomorrow and Sunday so there won’t be any cleaning going on then. But the first of the week I will be back at it. Hopefully the other rooms in the house don’t take me quite so long to clean.

I really have to wonder what it taking place in the brains of our politicians. Yesterday they announced their new budget and I have to tell you all that it doesn’t look real pretty. Not for the common man anyway. They have announced a massive amount of layoffs in the civil service industry and they have also announced a lot of closers that will take place in the not so distant future.

I realize that we are now in the middle of a pretty major recession, but people do need money and do need these jobs to live. If the government keeps slashing jobs and programs, those who own a franchise might not be safe either. If people are losing their jobs, then they won’t be spending the money in these other areas and this could turn out bad for everyone involved. But, the government is going to do what they think is correct and let chips fall where they may.

Well this past week I have learned a very valuable lesson. If you want something done QUICKLY, you really should do it yourself.

For over a year now I have been pestering my husband to clean out the spare room so I could move in it to use it as my home office. Well, since it’s been a year since I first mentioned it to him, I decided to take matters into my own hand and just do it myself. So earlier in the week I cleared out everything that I could carry and then got the furniture ready to go in the room. So when he got home from work last night, all he had to do was move a desk in the room I did everything myself.

Well, it certainly isn’t set up the way I want it to be. But, I’m getting there. I now have my computer, a table and a chair in the room. When I get it the way I want it to be, I’ll pop back in here and post a picture of my BRAND NEW home office. Did I mention that I had to do it myself??
