Quick catch up.
Yesterday's trip to the Girl Planning Board was a bit of a let down. We'll see over the next few months if this will really pan out to be what it is supposed to. Thankfully, it was quick.
For the AM snack, I had a fruit and nut bar on the way up to the meeting. Water was much better but not yet what it should be. Lunch was back home. I ate some taco dip/salad w/tostitos. I also had something else but can't remember what. Supper ended up being 4 slices of pizza from Pizza Hut and a Pepsi. It's a long story.
Put it this way. Sometimes it behoves me as to why I do the things I do when I do them. I was going to put the new bedding on the daybed when I had decided that I should get rid of the table (sm dining room size) in my office and bring up the lateral file cabinet that I bought. Of course that means less surface space which is good, but then I thought I better bring up one of the bookcases that we aren't using in our "family room" yet. This of course led to thinking about rearranging the office. Which means all the junk has to go somewhere and I am not sure how it all got here to begin with. By the middle of the evening, I had been swallowed alive by my office and was calling a friend to leave and SOS message on her machine. Now mind you I had plenty of other necessary things to do, but no........I have to start yet another project.
Here I sit still wondering where everything will fit and how I am going to clear the kitchen of all the overflow. The bedding has yet to make it out of the bag and on the bed. I am trying right now to convince myself that this is good and I needed to do this in order to bring some order back to my office, but that is beginning to wear thin. I am getting to the deal with it, file it, pitch it stage.
Food for today. Breakfast was 1 egg omelet w/ moz, yogurt, 1 c grapefruit juice, 2 slices ham. No AM snack since breakfast was late. Lunch was a salad w/cheese, ham, and craisins. Can you believe it, I actually had a salad. Then there were a few goldfish, a cookie, 2 tostitos with cheese, pop and popcorn (too much), a qtr lbr w/cheese, and a few fries. That all constituted snacks and supper. Well the popcorn was at the movies.
We went to see Harry Potter. The whole family has watched the movies from the beginning so with DD18 home, we took the opportunity. It was pretty good, but it is starting to miss something. Mainly the fact that the books are getting longer so they have so much more to condense into the movie.
Well back to cleaning my office. I am planning to get all the junk off the daybed so I can make it up. It's starting to shape up nicely. I even have my scanner plugged in permanently shich is nice. I am amazed at how little surface space I have, but then it was just filling up unneccessarily anyway. This should really help me stay more focused, at least for awhile.
Talk to you all later.

There's nothing under the daybed so as far as I know, I can't get sucked under. Although the mounds of paper are groing. I am working really hard to get everything in seperate parts of the room..........GS on the far end so that I can ignore it from time to time, bookwork next to the desk, genealogy within reach. I think this arrangement will work much better. The copier is right behind me. The file cabinet w/printer and scanner are next to the desk, giving me a continuous 7 ft work space, but not all of that is "dumpable" surface space. I can easily see the vast majority of our yard so I can keep an eye on the kids. The only down side is that I am staring at a very long black wall, so I guess that means I need to get out diplomas, maps, and such to decorate. "BUT FIRST" I need to get some frames. 
to carry you along!
