I like what my friend, Cathy, posted a few days ago. “Very Boring Post” To her, the mundane she blogged probably seemed boring to her. I loved catching a glimpse into her life and realizing that we all have those days we trudge through.
So today is my very boring post. I’m trudging through. I had a two hour appointment at the dentist (again!) and heard the lovely sound of a drill in my mouth the entire time. I hate that sound. Give me childbirth any day. Dentist pain is incredibly crappy!
I am reorganizing, wrapping up, throwing out and simplifying our lives (at least all the physical stuff we own). I get grumpy when I see all the stuff we’ve collected over the years. I get discouraged when I see how much I still have to do. I get excited when the stuff leaves my house. I’m a mess of emotions. Serious cleaning can do that! Makes me feel even more sorry for those people on that show Hoarders. Yikes!
So today I’m taking ibuprofen for my tooth, donning old yoga pants (faded beyond belief but oh so comfortable) and getting into the thick of things with the stuff of my house.
I was born in Jos, Nigeria many years ago. I spent the next nineteen years living in Liberia, Kenya and Ethiopia.
When you’re done you can come work on mine. My garage and office could qualify me for that show.
And I totally agree about dentist pain. I get all squeamish during cleanings.
