Thinking and Thinking.

The backlog of dirty dishes has finally been cleared.

The piles of laundry dotting the basement are cleared.  Well, almost.  There's always tomorrow after yoga.

The Christmas decorations are slowly being packed away.

I resisted the urge to order pizza and cooked dinner instead- Acorn Squash stuffed with Quinoa and Mushrooms, with Oven Baked Lasagna Pork Shoulder Steaks.

I even convinced Andrew to pull down the Christmas lights.

And I thought- about projects I want to tackle, things I want to try, what I want to accomplish in the upcoming week (Coles Notes Version: CLEAN THE DAMN HOUSE!), how personal I want to get on this blog.  Part of me thinks: "Nobody reads this.  Who the heck cares?", and then I think about the blogs I'm  most attracted to, and how they provide an open window into someone else's life.  It's reassuring to me to read about other people struggling with some of the same things I struggle with- it reminds me that I am not alone, and occasionally provides solutions that I hadn't even thought of.  On the other hand, it's the Internet, and THE INTERNET IS FOREVER.  Do I want my confessions floating around out there for all of eternity?

I'm not sure.

So, I think some more.
