chaos

anyone who knows me knows that i like to organize and order and get things together and streamlined. i do it in my work, my schedule, and sometimes my relationships (sometimes a downfall). hence, you can imagine what this is doing to me...


SO...it's 10:41 and i've begun packing. more than likely i will have to remove everything and start over tomorrow, but for right now, i cannot help myself. and of course, a bag of Dove dark chocolate sits by my side with some fabulous mix playlists in the background. i love how our quirks and those things so rooted within us emerge when our surroundings toss us around.

PS: NO i am not taking all that stuff...much of it is from KC that i haven't unpacked yet. geez.

shoot... you'll be gone for 27 months, take as much as you please!!! i aint goin to judge!!

i appreciate the use of comfort items in this process; at some point just stop what you're doing and watch a favorite movie!! it's the right thing to do.

Sarah, you can DEFINITELY kill bugs. I believe in you. Courage is the only virtue that we can't fake, and your lifestyle and decisions already prove you to be courageous.

Dang, girl. I feel you on wanting to streamline. Hence, why I am still up...checking my email...reading my blogs, etc.

My friend Chris (who saves all thousands of his emails) gives me a hard time: I whittle my inbox down to as few emails as possible.

When I say few emails, I'm talking 6 or so. I need to relax.

As for you, I'm glad you are allowing yourself to streamline. And I am glad you are being kind to yourself with treats and such.

Tell me you're really eating those Doves, though. Realllly eating them, as in lots of them. And not one every 5 packed boxes or something.

What can I say? I have issues with extremes.
