Moving Things Around

I spent a large part of the day moving things around in the house, preparing for them to bring my furniture back from storage later this week. It seems I spend way too much time moving things around.

I ran into Diana today at K-mart. We started talking and she wanted to borrow some things for an event. So, she and Austin and Amy came over tonight and got a lot of my dishes – snack trays and such. It’s a bonus for me since I need to deal with all these dishes anyway.

She also cut some of my sweet potato vines to experiment with. She’s going to use some to decorate with. They are growing like crazy and overtaking everything else in the flower bed. I hope the other things I planted have survived underneath all these vines.

One of my goals is to organize my life. I want to find a place for everything and get everything in its place. I spend too much time moving things around because they don’t *belong* anywhere. So, I move them from one room to another. I’m sick of it.

So, once I have everything back and have figured out what to do with it, I’m moving into a new phase of life where home is a place of sanctuary – not just a place to store my crap.

Of course, as Mary Ann said tonight when I talked to her, I’m thankful that I’m able to move stuff around and do what I need to do. Always need to remain thankful of that.

Well, I need to get to bed early. My first thing is at 7 in the morning. It’s going to be a frantic week.
