after thoughts

Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

1/17

Today… today I devote myself to classwork, straightening the yard, and continuing to clean the house.

My original thought today was to go to the gym for a while but wanted to wait for the bug guy.   Because Florida has some huge bugs and I don’t like bugs, Mr. Bug Guy comes out once every three or four months to keep the bugs away.

Since Jason is usually at work, he tends not to come inside.    Well, I’m here.  It’s important to me to be able to go to sleep without fantasizing there’s a palmetto bug on my face.     I’m pretty sure Jason feels the same way.    So, Bug Guy.

Bug Guy (Danny) has already come and went.    It’s still kind of early in the morning.     What a letdown.    An all-day appointment comes early.    It kind of makes me feel I could have gone to the gym anyway…. but…. the yard is pretty much a wreck and I didn’t clean everything I wanted to yesterday.

Still, this will be one more day without doing anything in Wizards or Pokemon, but I’m okay with that.  Since there’s an event on Saturday and Jason is off on Monday, I’m sure the portable battery will get a decent workout.

Hum…   I guess I’m kind of strange when it comes to housekeeping and yardwork.
I’m definitely not striving for perfection.    Certainly not.  I strive for comfortable and lived in, not sanitized and glossy.  I have a firm avoidance of trashy and degrading, which is part of the reason why the walls and ceiling are really bothering the ($(%$ out of me.    That and how easily mom was re-painting the house when I left.

Maybe I can get Jason to lend me the car to buy some paint and brushes.  I know my metal spine won’t let me paint worth crap, but I feel like I just got to do something.   I donno.   Patience in this area is not my virtue.

Once I get started, I tend not to want to stop.  It could start with the walls, then doors, then…. blah blah… and I’m paying off debt for the next twenty years.

Okay.
A couple of assignments have come in.
I’m going to knock them out and head outside.

Peace
