After a long weekend of work last weekend at the car show, I opted to not set my alarm today and not put in a full day of work work. I still was up and at the computer by 8 a.m. -- but oh, did I get a good, solid night's sleep. Awesome!
Thankfully, I shut most of the windows last night. It got down in the 40s and barely touched 60 today. Not right!
You know how they say it'll be a cold day in Hell when "fill in blanks with something unusual" happens. Well a cold day in Wisconsin can work just as well. In other words, I knew it would be a cold day in Hell when my Oh My God Room got clean. But it took a cold day in Wisconsin to get me started on it.
My Oh My God Room (a.k.a Computer Room, Office, etc.) got that name because it must remain behind closed doors. It is the dumping grounds when I have to clean off the counter quick for company. It is the holding cell for bills that have been paid but wait to be filed. It's just a lot of stuff that makes you say "Oh my god. How did it get this way?!"
Well it didn't happen overnight so it sure as heck is not going to get cleaned and/or organized in one cold day. That's for sure. But I made some progress. Shredded some stuff, recycled some, tossed some and found homes for some. Then there's more than some that I just don't know what to do with yet.
Probably a good thing tomorrow will be chilly, too. Though when I talk about chillin' out, I definitely don't have housekeeping on the mind!
On a side note, it was cool and windy enough I felt like I was at the British Open today, not just watching it on TV. But it was not too cold (never is) for ice cream. Carter made us each a root beer float tonight. Yummy!
I can guarantee you it would have to be a cold day in H-E-double hockey sticks before I turn down ice cream!

I'm sitting in my "oh my God" room right now. I know exactly what you mean. Some stuff you just don't know what to do with it. I know we learned from our mother that you can't throw away X-mas cards, close relatives graduation annoucements, etc., etc., etc. Too much crap.It's not fun going through it neither. I always find something that I really should have taken care of months ago.
