spring cleaning
The Jills are patience-challenged.
Those of you who know me off-blog, know this.
My general M.O. is to have too much patience with those who have a secret entry to my secret hideouts and not enough patience with long-term projects that I want to accomplish. (No, my dears, I am not about to announce that you are all cut off from the patience supply that only you darlings seem to have access to. And you know who you are.)
But what I am about to announce is my goal for the month of May. Which is to have patience with two major Jill-centric projects. And those are:
~ overhauling the blog and homepage. (Apologies to those of you who are reading along via RSS feed and have recently been driven batty by my re-publishing. I'm organizing my writing samples with labels. Sorry!)
~ massive spring cleaning of bedroom and home office. (You would not believe how much of a disorganized mess I made this winter.)
Of course, I have to keep up the rest of my life while attempting to accomplish this. It is feasible to accomplish this within 31 days. It is my perspective and approach that needs some altering to get it done. Already done, just have to keep it up.
So, one small step per day. I finished today's interim steps and have positively shifted my outlook. Someone remind me to reread this tomorrow?
Happy May, sweet people of cyberspace.

Happy May back at you. I'll be checking in for a progress report at the end of each week. :)

I hope you can be a monster of motivation and organization. I'd come and help you, but I hate cleaning. Plus it's a long way and New York is too freaking expensive. Plus I'm married and I can't even begin to imagine how I would explain it to Susan. Maybe I could send Susan. She cleans like nobody's business. No, she's got finals.
Well, good luck.
Hello, Jill.

GSR: I will give you progress reports. Can they involve apricot ale?
Oh darn, there ya got me all excited that I'd be getting help. Well, I hope Susan gets to relax soon. Hello, Scott.

What? I didn't really hear what you were saying. . . I was distracted by that pair of exquisite stems in the picture. I'm not talking flowers either. Wow! It's like a sauna in here. . . . So, what was that again?
M'huh. . . . yea. . . . . right. . . . m'hmmm. . . . uh, Jill. Yea, I still have no idea what your saying. I can't get past the legs. Maybe the next post I'll get through. (it's hard to read with your eyes closed and impossible to read the words with your legs right there.) Sorry.
