Sleep....Blessed Sleep

Anyone with children knows that sleep is one of those priceless and rare things you will never truly see again once the little darlig bless your life. Whether it is as a new parent and the baby needs to eat everything 2-3 hours and you learn to sleep like soldiers during combat time. Or your kids are grown and out of the house. Sleep is a luxury now.

I am still trying to fully recover from a bout of mono. Yes I am experiecing mono at age 31. Laughable but true. And actually until I had my diagnosis I wasn't very educated on mono either. I mean I had it as a kid but I was too young to really know what it was. I got mine from sharing a soda with a neighbor. Apparently it is in the same virus family as herpes, so once you contract it you have it and it can flare up at any time. 90% of the US population has it and most don't even know it.

Anyway, so I am still really fatigued after long hard working days. I was busy and ran around too much yesterday and I am feeling it today for sure. I really need to get my butt up and motivated today and get some stuff cleared out and put up. I have probably close to 1000 movies that need to be taken out of the tubs they are in and put up on the shelf I bought. I know I am going to need another shelf too. I just need to stack them differenty and make a list of what's on each shelf so I can also catalog my movies too.

Ok now I know for certain I don't want to actually do anything today. I keep stopping in the idde of my typing to play a video game. LoL! I know I know naughty me but it's Sunday on Memorial Day weekend! Who can blame me?

The list of things that need to be accomplished are:
Clear out the area for the shelf
Put shelf together
Put movies on the shelf
Move other boxes of movies inside from the garage
Sort through 3 large boxes in the garage
Set up DVD/VCR recorder in living room
PooperScoop
Vacuum
Change sheets on beds
Get some real money making work done
Possibly rearrange bedroom (still deciding on this one)
Walk the dog
Cut dog's nails
Give dog a bath
Other miscellaneous things I can't think of right now

*sighs* so much for the weekend. I should have stayed home yesterday and got some stuff done. I also need to go through the giant box of software from my dad and pull out what I need or want and then list the stuff on CL for sale. I don't care what I get for it I just want it out of my way to clear some space. I am tired of living in this itty bitty house (not really little but with 4 people and 2 dogs and 2 households full it is tight) where my mother the packrat has to keep all her stuff. Seriously, my bed is next to three 9 ft tall book shelves with 6 shelves each and total width of all three is 9 ft. And the shelves are all packed full. Most shelves are doubled up if they hold small books and stuff. It is crazy.

Yes I know it would actually change if I got off my butt and did it instead of bitching on a blog about it. But it is so overwhelming I don't know where to start so I bitch. I know my own procrastination skills when I see them. Ok I think I will do the software first because that could potentially bring in some money! Weeee! Love the idea of that.
