Rough Monday, but not for the usual reasons. Wandering from mess to mess in my house, which happens when I’m at home enough consecutive days to build up the momentum to clean, made me realize just how bad the cluttering has gotten in the past year. At one point I discovered a major mess that had been disguised by a pile of things that I hadn’t shifted in months and the extent of the problem brought me to tears. When I get to that place of recrimination/frustration/mounting anxiety in the middle of cleaning,I know that it’s time for me to get out of the house and take a bit of a walk.
I went to the slope to get some food, and then from there into Manhattan to work on a new project for the website. Coming back I stopped off at David’s place, since he had been holding a painting for me that I had picked up off the street over a year ago. A good conversation ensued, and I think I may just be getting myself a special something.
And yes the above picture is for you, irony fans.
