I meant to post before today but this week has been flying by.

I've been busy organizing my space and saying goodbye to older things. It's quite freeing to go through boxes of older things and realize that you don't feel any emotional attachments to older books and can let go of them.

Next up is stacks of papers and old diaries and notebooks. I don't know what I'll get rid of or keep it depends on which items make me happy.

I really enjoyed reading Marie Kondo's the Life changing magic of tidying up... so far the bits I'm using from it are going well.

I had therapy today so I talked about the family drama. There's something nice about hearing your therapist say she's fucking proud of you.

The other highlight of today is that Ian brought home a pistachio frappuccino. It was delicious. Sadly it didn't help my headache. Sometimes they do.

My youngest cat, my little black cat, has been spending a lot of time in Brigid's room because she keeps her electric blanket on even when it's not that cold. She plugged in a new air freshener that's vanila scented and my cat's head smells like vanilla.

Brigid made green bean casserole today and it was delicious. I don't like most green bean casseroles but I do like hers.

Tomorrow I'll be making lasagna. I was planning on making it today but my head hurts. Tomorrow night is dnd night and I'll be playing with the metalic dice set that Ian got me for christmas. Hopefully my new character begins to feel more character like because so far I keep thinking how much I miss Minerva my wizard. She's a druid.

I might watch some Doctor Who tomorrow I'm feeling nostalgic. A little Doctor Who rewatch might be what the Ninth Doctor ordered.

I feel you on the time flying by. I just realized that the first week of the year is nearly over. I somehow never get around to do what I planned to do just because I need some time to relax when I don't have to work and suddenly the day is over. Like today. It's a regional holiday here and I had decided to start on my weekend cleaning early after I was gone for two weeks over Christmas - well, I finished my desk. All my craft supplies are on the couch waiting to be sorted into going back into storage (mostly the Christmas related stuff) and still being in my 'use' pile.

I also loved Marie Kondo's books. They were very inspiring even though I ignored some of it. They're about as inspirational as watching clean with me, organization and decluttering videos on youtube. I have no idea why I find it so motivating to watch others do that, but it certainly helps me to get started some days. And it's certainly been very freeing to let go of stuff.

I have a long list of things I want to watch or rewatch, but since early last year (or maybe a bit longer), I never really get around to it because I'd much rather read. I think I just need all of those shows in book format. I've tried reading transcripts, but most I've found are a bit sparse (with only occasional notes of who's speaking or action inserts) and leave me just confused.

(And if my reply is kind of confusing it's because I got distracted halfway through typing it and I think I lost my thought somewhere along the way when I realized I hadn't finished typing it yet)
