What came over me?

Well, it’s not as if anything exciting is going on in my life recently. And I haven’t even paid attention to the news or the blogs for the past couple of days. I’m assuming everything is still holding together out there. I attribute it to cabin fever, a lot of rain, and having a cold.

I’ve been awfully busy coughing, hacking, sneezing, sniffling, croaking like a frog, etc. It’s sort of entertaining to see what new noise tomorrow will bring. Ah well. I must be almost all better because I started cleaning this morning and never seemed to stop until this evening. Considering the time I spent, it seems like I should have gotten more done, but done is done and crossed off the list, so not to complain.

Today I:

washed, folded, and put away 3 loads of laundry
washed, dried, and re-hung curtains
Scrubbed stove and underneath top
scrubbed microwave oven
vacuum cleaned & dusted downstairs
washed a couple of walls
washed ceiling fan and blades
cleaned picture frames hanging on walls
cleaned bird cage
went grocery shopping…

and bought a bottle of Pinot Noir, which I am finally, at this moment, sitting down to sip.

I don’t what has come over me. I couldn’t sit still today. I had to clean stuff. I’m still not sure whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing that this doesn’t happen all that often. Maybe it’ll happen again tomorrow. Anyway, I’m done in and I’m going to go watch a movie and snuggle into some freshly washed pink sheets and pillowcases which smell like Downy and make me very, very happy.
