procrastination central

 I didn't sleep well last night. I went to bed late because I wanted to finish reading

a book. And then I was wide awake at 5:30. I think it's the slant of the light coming

in through my blinds this time of year. I need total darkness to sleep. I think I'm

going to look into getting some room darkening shades. Then I went and looked

out the front door and saw this. Another few inches of snow. Really, Mother Nature?

Look how high the snow is now in my front yard. Two feet, at least. The drifts

are even higher.

 I had an acupuncture appointment at 10:00 a.m. but I rescheduled it for later this

afternoon. I usually don't mind driving in a little bit of snow, but this place is a 1/2

hour drive in normal traffic and I heard the roads were terrible. There are so many

important things I could've been getting done at home today, but I just feel so blah

and tired. I guess it's the combination of a lack of sleep and being tired of this

yucky weather. So in-between doing the usual cleaning and laundry, I did what

I do best: I puttered and rearranged. I took all the plants out of Tim's room, since

he'll be home next week and I need to get that room cleared out. At first it was hard

to find room for more plants in the rest of the house, but I figured it out.

 I moved this print from the bathroom into the living room...

Took the brown basket off the bottom shelf...

And put a cheery, springy splash of yellow there instead.

Added monogrammed vintage hankies to the top of the secretary desk

in my bedroom and made a new vignette...

I really must go shovel the porch and front sidewalk before I leave for

my appointment. The snow is not going to go away by itself. And it's not fair
 for Brian to have to do all the shoveling when he gets home from work. I can

at least help out a bit with that. I promised a friend a phone call too, so off

I go. Please tell me you sometimes have "off" days, too. Do you give in

to them or do you fight it?
