So Little Time


Daily musings....

So many things to say, so little time.

OK, that's a lie.

So many things to say, so little motivation to sit down & write it out.

Yup.  That about sums it up.  I'm just too lazy to type.

But in all honesty, it really does feel like there is so little time to get everything done.

I'm trying really hard to work myself into a strict schedule, because I have absolutely no motivation to do anything.  Anything.  Blog?  Nope.   Clean?  Nope.  Brush my hair?  Nope.

Eat. That's all I want to do. Ah, depression is fun, isn't it?  But I've been real good on the eating part.  It's all going slowly, but it's going.  I'm doing more.  My schedule is working.  I just haven't made the habit of sitting & typing yet.  I seem to find 'other' things to do instead.  Well, at least things are getting done, right? *smile*

I've got some Black Friday shopping done even though I wasn't enthused about it.  Got some really good deals on things we needed and wanted.

Christmas shopping on the other hand is going slow.  The enthusiasm for Christmas hasn't hit me yet.  I have only baked pumpkin bread so far, and put up a few decorations.  I'm really, really trying though.

I've been dealing a lot with the animals.  Kiev, my 5 yr old Buff Orpington hen has ascites.  She's a sweet old lady who will run up to you when you come out of the house, just to "chat".  Vitamin water, scrambled eggs, the occasional draining, and sitting in the sun time with her BFFs is how she spends her day.  She's a happy bird.  I also have 2 partridges who's back ends have been nearly skinned.  It's really gross.  I mean, muscle & tissue fully visible in a 3" diameter area.  They don't seem worse for wear, but they are in the infirmary (my bathroom) 'til they heal.  Then I'll have to build them an above-ground separate aviary.  They were sharing an area with the guineas.  I don't think it was the guineas who pecked them, but I need to get them off the ground so others can't peck at them through the fence.  My suspects are the turkeys.

I've been working on the house a bit.  I've got the kitchen almost done.  New fridge and stove.  New sink & faucet.  New set of pots & pans, and a couple small appliances thanks to Black Friday sales.  Just a bit more caulking & painting left.  I do have to cut the counter a bit wider for the sink to fit in right, but my attention span on the project has left me.  The main bath only needs baseboards and some paint now mostly. We put in a new toilet, but the tub still needs replacing.  It's chipped bad, and before we moved in, the bank that owned it painted the tub with wall paint to cover up the chips.  Ugh.   I need to replace the light fixture as well.  It's too dark in there.  I have it, just need to do it.  My bath (master bath), is on hiatus.  Other projects are going on, plus the partridges are in there.  It can wait.  We never use it anyway.  I have to get the downstairs done.  It's getting cold, and cold down there, so I have to get the windows sealed up.

My house is still a mess.  Like I just moved in, though it was five years ago.  When you work on one room in the house, for some reason the rest of the house gets disheveled.  A lot.  It's just amazing really.

I'll stop talking here.  I don't want to bore you.  More.

I hope to get in the better habit of writing my daily musings, posting reviews, coupons & sales.  Wish me luck.

Until tomorrow....
