Today after waking up at 2am with a sire throat. I was determined not to get sick or I guess sick-er. I consumed 3 24oz bottles of water, 3 8 oz glasses of various juices, and I took Airborne last night before bed all in the hopes to knock out this sickness. Plus I started taking my vitamins again. Hopefully I’m not jinxing it by saying that the sore throat is gone tonight. It went away this morning after breakfast, and hasn’t re-surfaced yet. We shall see how tonight goes, though.
Jordan’s naps weren’t so great today, and she’s already awakened once since I put her down for bed. We shall see how it goes. Maybe I need to re-read some of the tips in that book.
Most of today I spent cleaning. I’ve had the “purge” bug ever since I went to my parents house and my mom showed me the episode of Oprah that Peter Walsh from Clean Sweep was a guest. I really want to simplify our lives, and get rid of the extra clutter. So today I tackled my closet. I now have a HUGE bag of clothes to go to Goodwill, and another trashbag full of random things, and a smaller grocery sack with a few other items. I now have space in my closet for some of my scrapbooking things. I can actually have them somewhat organized and readily accesible so I can pull them out and do a page here and there when Jordan gives me the time! And I can actually see my clothes now. Before I couldn’t hardly move the hangers on the rod. And I didn’t feel good in hardly any of the clothes. I’ve also started walking with Jordan every day around the neighborhood, which gives me a workout, and makes me feel better about myself. Depending on how much time I have, I may join a gym that has daycare, so I can try to lose the last 15 stubborn baby pounds. My goal was to be back to my prepregnancy weight by Jordan’s first b-day, which seems to inch closer and closer by the second!
I feel so much better about myself since I got my closet clean, plus I uncovered some pre-baby clothes that actually fit now, so I can toss out the old Target t-shirts that are now a size too big. I don’t feel good about myself in sloppy clothes, or in a messy house, so I’m clearing out the sloppy clothes and cleaning the house at the same time! We shall see how much longer I can keep this up, but hopefully my “purging bug” won’t leave until I’ve purged the whole house and garage! Then we will see exactly how much space we really need! So that’s the news of the day! I’m off to bed before Jordan wakes up for a second time!
