Where Does the Time Go?

It is already Thursday. It only feels like Tuesday, at the latest. My week off from work is almost done.

What have I done since last Friday?

Of course there was Christmas.

On Tuesday, Jas had an interview at an Elementary school 30 miles north of Sacramento (2 hours from my home).  I drove up with her for moral support. Sadly, she did not get the job.

Then there was a good deal of house cleaning.  We had to make room for all of Jasmine’s and Ozgar’s things.  Jas and Ozgur tackled her old bedroom. Then we went into the “Black Hole” aka the garage.

The Black Hole
AFTER reorganization!

The Black Hole is where I store my boxes of books, prepared kits, and show stuff. Not to mention other odds and ends. How I ever manage to find things in the Black Hole is beyond me. But there is a system to my disorganized mess. Really, there is. That's my story, and I am sticking to it.

Still, I had to find a way to make room for some of Jas’s furniture, boxes and other things. Monday is the day for the move. Between the three of us, we did get some prime Black Hole real estate cleared. So we should be able to get everything crammed in. It will be tight, but we have become experts at using storage space to it’s max (you should see our cupboards and freezer!).

In addition to cleaning, now with two wanna-be chefs in the house, Jas and I are cooking and baking up a storm. The guys are getting stuffed…and beginning to groan…

Last night was Hungarian night, beef goulash, and two varieties of pasteries: one filled with poppy seeds and the other with a walnut/apricot mixture.

Tonight, Jas is taking over, and it will be Turkish night…

In between time, I did find a bit of time to bead. I will post my progress soon.

Did I miss my day job? Not one bit. Am I looking forward to going back on Tuesday? Are you kidding!!

I think today, I will spend most the day beading!!
