Nesting & MySpace

So it's wednesday. I'm not sure I have too much to proclaim or tell you about. Life is just poking along at normal speed. It's been a rare & quiet stretch of not too much activity. It used to be uncommon for us to home a lot. Now I can give you several days & times at which we are at home. Perhaps it's the calm before the storm. Reguardless I'm rather enjoying it.

I've entered into a delightful stage of nesting. I'm tearing this house apart from top to bottom with little projects that need to be done. I am saving the washing windows for last, just in case, ya know, I run out of time. (giggle, giggle)

It's not unusual for me to be knee deep in a project that requires several hours of my attention. The other night I tried to sit & watch tv, but was just not intersted. So I tried reading. Nope not cutting it either, not to mention my almost 2 year old son trying to crawl on my lap as I attempted to read my Reader's Digest.

It was only 6:30 p.m. I already had the family fed, kitchen cleaned, floors vacumned & laundry presorted for the NEXT day. What could I possibly do? I set my sights on my bedroom & closet. I took everything out. Moving all of my I couldn't possibly fit into clothes into a bin downstairs and moved in all my moo-moo can this strech any bigger maternity clothes. Jim walks into the room & sees about 10 stacks of clothes completely covering our bed. You'd think he had just entered a war zone with his bewildered look on his face as he asked "what is going on here?" Of course I'm slightly ocd in these types of things and I can't do this simply. I had to stack them in their places not only according to color groups, but according to style of clothing and fabric weight. Not to mention they have to hang on the same type of hangers that belong in that group.

I just got an email from Jim and the lightbulb goes off in his head. He "gets" it.....I'm nesting. Well, I'm glad he noticed.

Aside from the numerous jobs to do around the house I also spend plenty of time on the computer. I knew that soon after created this blog that my next step would be MySpace. So I've created a page there. It's much more tricker than this blog. So if you get over to it there isn't too much too see. It's another work in progress. I'm working to make it a family page, not just a Carmen page. MySpace isn't set up for that though. I could make a page just for Jim, but then I'd up keeping up-to-date two pages instead of just one for our family. Our MySpace name is (drum roll please) petefamzoo. Ooooh, betcha didn't guess that one! If I do this right I'll put the link here at the end and include the link of this page for future use. http://www.myspace.com/petefamzoo
