It's going to be absolutely gorgeous! I sincerely hope that all the legal stuff is over for you soon so you can move on.

And I couldn't find my knitting, so I played the kids Nintendo DS's. <br /><br />Good idea with the books and the legal stuff. Look at your stack of documents! Holy Crap! I'm sending you karma every day, girl. Let me know when it reaches you!<br /><br />Sounds like a lovely weekend. Take care of yourself.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05921287383710570315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16232845.post-27410164779079910262007-01-29T20:10:00.000-08:002007-01-29T20:10:00.000-08:00Ahhhahahaha, I laughed (in a companionable sort of...Ahhhahahaha, I laughed (in a companionable sort of way, of course) when I read about the legal shrine. We all do this to ourselves, don't we?! For three years, I would leave my school books in a big, industrious (read: horrifyingly tall) looking pile in the MIDDLE of my desk so that I would feel compelled to open them any time I walked into my bedroom. Instead, I became enamoured of cable television. Ok, maybe not the same thing.<br />The to-do list? I do those too. Sort of compulsively. But I *trick myself* by adding Very Important things, like "brush teeth", "read 1 ch in Lovelace novel", "go to work/appointment/school" and "make list for tomorrow" so that at the end of the day, the completed stuff still outweighs the incompletes. You'd be surprised how readily even the most rational brains will accept that this is legitimate!<br />I'm really glad to hear that you spent the weekend taking care of yourself, though :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16232845.post-74386375661388320972007-01-29T16:53:00.000-08:002007-01-29T16:53:00.000-08:00Oooh, the wheel...I am definitely going to have to...Oooh, the wheel...I am definitely going to have to meet the wheel too.

I can imagine that it was a great relief to have that all out of the line of sight.<br /><br />Your singing to the choir on the not finishing things.

Or better yet, send it to me and I'll block it (hey, it'll be good blog fodder) and send it back to you.(Maybe ;-) ) Really, <i/>REALLY</i>, it will make you feel so accomplished and powerful and wonderful. Do not pass go, do not collect $200*. Just.

B...I've got a sad case of Can'tFinishIt-itis, too. But only when beloved family members are involved.<br /><br />The first one was my sister, dying of breast cancer. I think I thought if I never gave her the gift, she wouldn't die.<br /><br />Now, it is another sister who has a long life ahead, no problems, new husband and new baby. I finished the knitting of her wrist warmers, but can't get the ends woven in. (And the hooded towel set for the baby sewn, either, although that isn't started.) I think this time I just want to visit, and hand it over in person, so I can see the baby.<br /><br />But it's a weird feeling, for sure!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
