packing it in

If you think I can pack a lot into a day, you would blown away by how much can happen in a weekend!

I was mostly about serious spring cleaning this weekend, my sunroom (which is almost all windows including the roof & is located at the back of the house overlooking the creek & leading to the deck) is now cleared out and ready for hosting summer BBQ's, lazy afternoons, arts and crafts or the very rare afternoon catnap.

It was quite a process & though it all looks very nice right now, it has caused a fair amount of chaos throughout the rest of the house which will have to be handled sooner than later. I cannot wait to have a yard sale with all of the stuff I am ready to let go of - a little cash & a lot more room - total bonus.

This large purging also required sorting through a lot of photos and cards and miscellaneous notebooks, schoolbooks and pieces of paper - much memory laning. I found pictures of my maters degree graduation, of my last day at acer, of a baseball game with medchannel co-workers at the new Pac Bell Park when it opened, so many other ones I had completely forgot I had. It made me nostalgic, for people and places and times of my life. It brought smiles and tears and groans and caused a flood of little flashbacks. I do live a very full life, it may not always be exaclty the way I would like it to be, but I have been able to do a lot, meet a lot of different people, go a lot of places and appreciate the experiences.

To the many many people who have been a part of my life, thank you for making it richer.

Peace and love!
