Reinvention

That is the word.  For me.  At this time in my life, as it is now.  Next, the word that comes to mind, is free.  I feel free for the first time, in...a very...long...time.

Having a great day at the end of a work week, that for the first time I didn't have.  It feels pretty good.  I've been organizing my books upstairs, working on a vintage bottle that is actually for me to show on my dresser.

Time to change purses too.  This new one was way too small, and I don't even think I carry that much any more.  Oh well, it'd be fun to have a new purse now, but I'll have to get an old one out.  Gosh, the things that we worry about when we're not consumed with a job.  Especially one that there's no passion. 
 
Update at 5 minutes to 1 - I am on fire today!  I am just sitting down to eat, and haven't really thought of it until minutes ago.  how awesome is that?  I have cleared out junk, emptied and straightened somewhat out my work art table downstairs, I've organized a couple boxes for Salvation Army, blogged a little, and actually got out another purse that I think should do for the rest of the winter.  Oh, did I say I cleared out all the books on the 'footstool/table) in my spare bedroom?  I moved most of them to inside the closet where most of my interesting books are.  And moved some shoes.  It just feels great to have the time to do this!  I just walked to the mailbox before eating, and it's still -3 degrees1  It was 17 or something below 0 when I got up at...5:30 ish this morning.  All over the country, and probably the world, we are setting records of flooding, cold, hot, dry, dying coral reefs, dying species - all at a rapid rate.  Crazy that the leaders of our once free and beautiful country are so greedy that money and gain and profit and things and excess are what drives them.  Another update later!
 
 My gosh what an awesome day.  I got so much done.  And I swept the floors, and cut my paint tarp into three pieces and then sewed the ends of each piece.  Very productive.  And I cleaned the parts ot the vacuum.  I like this new keyboard too.  I grabbed the cash from the money I got from the law dogs for my retirement.
