decluttering

I'm a clutter bug and a pack rat. If you took a look at my parents house, you probably wouldn't be surprised that this is the case... I pretty much was raised by parents that were that way and are probably far worse cases than I am... For the most part, I'm seemingly unbothered by this... I can exist in a messy space without feeling much shame or concern... but every once in awhile, I just snap and feel that things NEED to be organized, clutter needs to be dealt with, and order must be brought to my space.

If there's one thing I seriously don't get about myself, it's the fact that I'm so utterly inconsistent.

Why is it that some weeks I'm overly productive? Able churn out tons of work efficiently whilst still being able to keep on top of the blogs I read and boards I post on and keeping a handle on the basic household chores like laundry and dishes.

The moving phase, as of last night, is officially over. We're in the unpacking and getting settled in phase. The first things I had to unpack were rather easy because they were organized by where they belong... Office stuff was in boxes with other office stuff. Yarn was packed with other yarn. Easy peasy.

If you'd been here on Monday evening, you would have sworn I was completely unpacked.

Well, I guess starting a new blog isn't doing anything for my blogging frequency... but then again, there hasn't been much to blog about. Last week seemed to be like one huge blur where I got hardly anything accomplished. This is driving me crazy. Why can't I seem to focus on anything for more than five minutes? Why does it seem like I've done absolutely NOTHING all day long?!?

Well... I suppose I haven't done entirely nothing all week long, but it just seems that way.

For the most part, it was a fairly productive weekend. I slept in on Saturday, and had the hankering to knit, problem being none of my WIPs were exactly what I wanted to knit... I have a dishcloth in progress, but I'm out of one of the colors of yarn, and I sorta want it to be uniformly colored... I have three socks going, but two of them were lace and required more concentration than I wanted to give, and the other is the most boring K2, P2 rib and not only is it boring, it's slow and on size 0 needles.
