Happy New Year!!

The last couple of months have been absolutely crazy. My mom moved in, I got pneumonia, I did a lot of work on the house, and I finished my bedroom (YAY!), so now that all that’s done, I can focus on my blog here and also my writing.

I have so many ideas for books, but when I would sit down at my desk, I couldn’t concentrate. My room was such a mess it was all I could focus on.

About 2 years ago, I decided to redo my entire room. I bought dresser things to put together, a shoe rack I was going to use to keep my books on, and a DVD/blu ray stand. I spent a lot of grandpa’s money. And then it just sat in my room, I got rid of the furniture I had, so basically, my room was like an obstacle course.

I was originally spending one week working on cleaning upstairs and one week on my room. But that wasn’t really working. I mean I was making progress, but there was no way I was going to be done by the new year. so, after I recovered from pneumonia, I decided to spend the entire month of December downstairs working in my room. My goal was to have it done by yesterday and I finished a day or two early. I am so proud of myself for getting it done. My mom was very proud of me as well.

It just feels so much better sitting at my desk and being able to look around and see the carpet, not junk. So this year is starting out right, I just hope I can keep it up. My main problem, aside from the room, was that I kept falling into a deep depression. I was in for so long and then my grandpa died, and then I just threw myself into working on the house.

I miss my grandpa so much. If there is an afterlife, I know he and my grandma are proud of how my mom, Eddie, and I have come together as a family.

That’s it for now, just wanted to say “Happy New Year” and explain a little about what’s been going on with me.

    Cleaning your work/living space is a lot like editing and rewriting. It’s all about getting down to what is essential. The mental processes are similar. I am glad you have your world clean and orderly for the new year. It’s a perfect environment in which to work. Happy New Year!
