Last week gave our Alexandria project a delay since I spent the night in Dallas to see Spinal Tap. I returned too late to do anything and wasn’t around to crack the whip on Somara; we both have to work together on staying focused with this rather large undertaking.
We didn’t fare as well this weekend neither. Somara had a last-minute cake for Mother’s Day and another to spring at a later date. The monthly chores I do around the house were put off a few days too, those had to be accomplished and when intertwined with the weekly, this about an hour. It can be hard to get any momentum rolling. Somara gets a pass this time for the cakes. Plus I know she’ll be cleaning up the kitchen tomorrow while I’m work/errands.
I did put in a solid 90 minutes. It may appear worse. I did take the picture before removing my portable and backpack. Most of what I cleared was internal stuff; pitching old paper to recycling, assigning better homes for items in boxes and organizing other things to give away or sell, namely old D&D books I’ll never use, make me an offer, they start at $1 each. I should’ve also taken Guadelupe on the way home from downtown to see if my favorite bookshelf store remained in Hyde Park. I’m going to need a third CD model to perfect the blueprint. Ikea has some interesting designs and styles but they don’t cut it for people such as myself.
Next weekend promises to be more aggressive! No Star Trek movie to distract us.
