I went into the garden today, and what did I find? WEEDS! GAZILLIONS OF WEEDS! Not as many as before, granted, but I'm a little put out by the inconsiderate plant life around here. How dare they grow where I don't want them?  I'm having a bit of a Day, really. I got to bed late last night, overslept this morning (by about an hour, which isn't so bad given that I didn't have to go to work), and am now looking around discontentedly at all the stuff I have to do. There are two main areas of the place that need TLC. The first is my bedroom, which looks like the laundry basket had a severe bout of gastroenteritis in there. I stashed everything in there in a hurry so my friend could paint... and now I don't feel like cleaning it up. I know rationally that it's not that big a deal, that it probably won't take more than thirty minutes to an hour... but I'm having some serious demand-resistance problems here.  The other room is the dining room/kitchen. This one isn't as bad, but I have lots of little things hanging around that I don't quite know what to do with. Also, the stupid fruit flies are EVERYWHERE. I need to get some fly paper, I think. I also have to do my cooking today. I was going to do it Sunday but ran out of time due to the weeding. Oh, and it's rainy out. Bleh. So that's my whine for the day. ~Mouse  |

Job security. If you can just convince yourself that needing to do it over and over is job security, it can help. Sometimes it makes me laugh when I see it that way.
I love the way your describe your bedroom. An old friend of mine used to say it looked like the dresser threw up, but I like your words better.

messymimi Job security. I like that! *keeps it for future use* As for vomiting furniture, yeah. I generally say "threw up" or something like it, but I was feeling extra-specially sarcastic today and decided to go with something more colourful. I was rather proud of my turn of phrase, so I'm glad you liked it!  ~Mouse |

Oh, Mouse, isn't it horrible?
I kind of think that because I have worked so hard over the past few years, and I really mean well, that the house should just stay clean by itself at this point. However, like your weeds that keep growing, my house keeps messing. 
On the plus side, yay you for pulling weeds. I haven't gotten around to that yet this year.....

I have no idea who invented dressers but I would like to have a serious talk with him/her?
I have not found a user friendly dresser yet-
