Oh, sunrise, watch out what you wish for!!!

I had this goal for most of the summer and didn't do much with it but then my cats got fleas Now I've spend over $1,000 on cleaning (professional) and vet bills and pet and home depot/Lowe's store purchases and lost 5 pounds working my behind off (vacuuming daily, flea combing and going up and down the stairs as one cat won't come downstairs and one won't go upstairs (where the litter boxes are, I've had to put a litter box in the living room for him!) and just running and doing.

The bedroom that needed to be worked on, I gave away so many books to the "Book Thing" http://www.bookthing.org/ that it made the car tires read wrong/as having problems; the change in weight was so great! LOL and I've thrown out 3-4 black garbage bags from there, bought a shredder for my husband's 20 year old cancelled checks, etc. I have enough work to last me there, it appears, for another few months.
