Well, today was a pretty productive day. I slept late cleaned off my DVR, then decided to tackle my closets. Once a year or so, I clean out my closets at get rid of old clothes. Today, I rounded up 4 garbage bags of clothes to take to the Goodwill. I also found 4 blankets to take to the women's shelter when I have a chance. My biggest cuts came from my sweater collection. I am now down to approximately 25 sweaters - it may sound like a lot, but two years ago, I had 65-70 sweaters crammed into my cedar closet. I got rid of a bunch last year and about 25 today. It's a good feeling to have space in all three of my closets now! If I wanted to, I could probably get all of my stuff into two closets :-)

I also spent a couple of hours mending things that had been piling up for a while. I sewed on several buttons and repaired a few torn seems. It's also time to tackle the CDs, DVDs and books - I like to thin my collection once a year or so and sell the rest for a little extra cash. Besides, I usually need the room! Maybe that will be tomorrow's project - we'll see.

Google THIS!

So, I had a dream last night that caused me to Google a few people from the past - just to see what they are up to. Most had appeared in the dream in some way and I woke feeling extremely unsettled. For those of you who have been around for a while, here is the latest info on Gary, Mark, Deanna and, finally, Jeanna Turner (she wasn't in the dream - I actually ran across her info by accident). Occasionally, I just start Googling and search every name that I can think of. You wouldn't believe the places one little Google can go! Sometimes, if I run across the email address of an old friend, I will send them a note - it's nice to surprise people every now and then.

Shane gets irritated with me because I tend to hold on to people. I think that part of it is a woman thing and part of it is a fear-of-letting-go thing. I tend to work hard on relationships that mean a lot to me (Randy, anyone?) - unfortunately, sometimes they mean more to me than the other person(umm. . . hello, Matthew). I have a habit of connecting with people (ok, guys in particular) who forget that I exist the moment that I step out of their view. Of course, I realize that this is a self-esteem issue as well - several years ago, the aforementioned Matt went on a 6 week mission trip and I was 100% convinced that he wouldn't remember me when he came back. Seriously. Of course, he did - although, he forgot to bring me the tulip bulbs that he promised me from Amsterdam. Promises never were his strong suit. Anyway, I just see myself as forgettable for some reason.

I seem to have wondered off track here. . . sometime, you should try Googling everyone you can think of - you can learn some important things! Always Google yourself, too - I found out that in FY 2006, Texas A & M University paid "Chasity Schoonover" $15.00. I don't recall receiving a check. . . dang Aggies.
