some more done

Well, now I am sitting at the front office. Some of the filing is done. Then I will move one part of files into a box for shipment to storage. Then move last years files into the bottom draw, and file more files. After I make more folders. That will be tomorrow's task. Or This afternoons, not sure. I am still having trouble keeping my eyes open for some reason.

I want to sleep!!

My boss leaves at 1 today. Anyone squeal if I take a nap?

I know, I can't do that.

I am reading "The Five Languages of Love". I have figured out B's love languages, but cannot figure out mine. His is related to spending quality time. I am making an effort to spend the quality time-not quantity time. The talking on the couch is helping both of us. And the stress level in the apartment has gone down considerably. When he starts pushing boundaries, I tell him.

One of the things that I noticed reading the book, is that each of the languages talks to me at different times. Words of affirmation, gifts, time, service, etc. each touch me and become special to me and feed my 'love bank'. No one seems to mean more than the other. I need to do the questionaire to see what that shows.

I do think that I do need a gift of time in reverse-a day to myself every other week or so. to do what I want to do creatively. to sit at the table and talk to him if I want while I try to master a new crochet technique, or bead something or be perfectly quiet while I work on a book. That is what 'Alone time" means to me. Not something everyday. but a period that is mine as I decide it. For creative purposes.

Well, enough for today. It is peaceful. Take care.

And more filing got organized. Finally. My desk is getting organized. Tomorrow is moving files from drawer into storage box. (first thing in AM). Then move last years files into bottom drawer. Then make folders, Then file this years files. I can find everything, but noone else can. Starting to get back on top of things. Smoothing things the way they need to be. Hopefully, will be more alert tomorrow.
