While I&#8217;ve figured out how to redo that bookcase, I&#8217;ve decided to put it off until this weekend. It&#8217;s snowing and blowing here and honestly, I&#8217;m just feeling the need to be home today. Sometimes that happens and when it does, I&#8217;ve found it&#8217;s best to follow my instincts.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230;wow, I just hit a blogger wall and my mind went totally blank. I think my brain is still asleep even if it is 2pm. Geesh. Ok, back to what I was going to say before that bit of mindless rambling occurred. I realized this morning as I was pondering what to write today that this new routine is all about me and taking time for me. The tidier this house becomes, the happier I become. As a psychology student, I had a theory about mind organization. In fact, I seriously wondered if there was a possible career in Organizational Therapy..yes, I coined the phrase but had no idea how I&#8217;d even begin to setup that kind of career, even if I&#8217;d love doing it. My guess is that it would begin by going back and getting my Master&#8217;s degree and becoming a licensed therapist and the truth is, I already owe so much in student loans that the idea of adding to that terrifies me. So, for now I won&#8217;t. Anyway..there I go rambling again.<\/p>\n<p>So, what am I doing for me today? Well, one thing that I already did do was the put some lotion on my feet before I put socks on them. My feet, like a lot of feet, get dry, especially at this time of year. So, I started putting lotion on them after my shower and right before I put my socks on. I&#8217;m using up a bottle of lotion that was given to me as a gift that while I like, I don&#8217;t totally love. So, I&#8217;m helping to declutter and helping my feet stop being so dry.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the other thing I&#8217;m going to do today is to repaint my fingernails. One of the things that I realized after my divorce is that I actually have a fun streak. I like to be silly and to do fun things and maybe even act a little crazy sometimes. So, instead of just a clear coat of nail polish today, I&#8217;m going to do something fun. Right now, I&#8217;m torn between purple and green. The nail polish that I have on right now is a light green that&#8217;s rather see through. You wouldn&#8217;t even realize it was green unless you looked right at it. I&#8217;m thinking I might with purple today. Just a bit of wackiness to brighten my spirits because for some reason I&#8217;m feeling a bit down today. I think I might need to get a bit more sleep, to be honest. <\/p>\n<p>So, now that I&#8217;ve rambled on and drifted a bit here and there, what are all of you doing for you today? I&#8217;d love to know and dang it, my readers aren&#8217;t commenting again. I might have to hand out spankings or something. Perhaps bribe you with a giveaway&#8230;hmmm? *grins*<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view&amp;current=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" alt=\"Photobucket\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mcklinky.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mcklinky.com\/images\/MckLinkyLogo119.gif\" width=\"119\" height=\"39\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Thursday, everyone!
