NOT AS HELPFUL AS THEY LEAD YOU TO BELIEVE.

Yeah, you still can't really overdo it, but I went years without being able to have ice cream before Lactaid Ultra was invented. So, I am grateful for the option.

bonny, I hear you; I want to Clean My Whole House but I run out of spoons after about two hours.

For serious. My place is getting gross with dust, but I've got a new software release to train for and an overdue audit at work, I'm hosting a shower for my best friend (thankfully at a friend's home) Saturday and this weekend is my Sunday at the soup kitchen. I'm comforting myself with the fact that dust that thick isn't going to fly up and make me sneeze, so it's better if I leave it alone (for now).

Sorry, went all mememe there, been feelin' a smidge overwhelmed this week. Bonny, seems like this might be one of those times when the timer is your friend?

I've gotten to the 'make a huge mess to clean the huge mess' portion of the program and now I'm tired.

And, of course, Cagney chose today to be super needy and wanting to play every few minutes. Every time I sit down to organize or clean something, he climbs up into my grill...blinding me with his cuteness.

If I push him away, he goes to his cushion and barks at me.

Sigh.

Truth.

I'm with you on the dust, Epic. Though it is hitting the point where I'm ready to bite the bullet and just be prepared for an asthma attack.

Yeah, I'm stocking facemasks (but not even willing to contemplate DOING anything before next weekend). I can only put up with the feeling of suffocation for so long, but hey, timers can be my friend, too.

It feels like I am eternally at this stage of moving.

I need to get the dining room table under control and then freecycle that bitch. It'll be box central. (thanks, o-a)

Amusingly the management company wants to do a walk through (not for cleaning, for things they need to replace) in less than a week. Thankfully I know the carpet is just a flat replace because they have to do that every 5 and I've been here nearly 7. I just have no idea how they are going to see anything but boxes. It's all I can see.

We are watching Dark Knight before heading out to see Dark Knight Rises.

Does anyone else want to sit down and have a drink with Morgan Freeman? Like, a scotch or something? He just seems too ... refined and elegant to have a beer. A good, 30 year aged Scotch seems more his style.

Anyway ... I just want to hang with him in an elegant setting and just chat.

I'm slowly learning, like the "milk product" that is in, apparently, EVERY BREAD EVER OMG

The Arnold brand breads generally don't have dairy.

I don't think I've ever heard of them. I'll have to keep my eyes open for it.
