Today I feel accomplished. As of yesterday I finished an entire month of blogging every single day. It was my own private writing goal and I did it. I wanted to do it because when life gets busy/interesting that is exactly when I am least likely to write an entry. But those are exactly the times I’d like to have recorded for my own reference later. So as of the 30th I had 32 consecutive days. Then of course I missed December 1st by about 20 minutes, which makes my crowing about writing every day a bit ironic. Oh well. Can it count as yesterday if I haven’t slept yet?
Today I also rearranged my office. I did this with the wonderful and willing help of my friend raisinfish. We shuffled furniture around to create table space next to my desk. Now I actually have a space that I can work with. This makes me very glad indeed. I’m sure that within a week I will have piled things all over the wonderful open space, but I still believe that the arrangement will be much better. I probably should have taken before and after pictures, but I was in too much of a hurry to get the job done. Oh well.
Yesterday I purchased a pair of free standing cupboards which are destined to hold the toys in my family room. Last night I assembled one and placed toys in it. It looks so much better than what we had. I’m looking forward to getting the other one in place.
After almost two weeks of fairly aimless drifting I feel like I’m gaining control of the chaos again. It is a good feeling.
1) “It’s not tomorrow until you’ve gone to sleep!” <- This means that I can legitimately eat breakfast ("The first meal of the day") at 4AM. >.>
2) Regaining control of ones life is a wonderful thing. Good on ye!
3) Your daily blog is a wonderful thing. Congratulations on achieving the goal, and don’t worry about it being pointless – I actually look forward to reading the little drabbles. (Whether this makes me odd or not, I don’t know. But it’s certainly a breath of fresh air on my LJ page.)

Congratulations!
Personally, I think of “a day”, functionally, as the time between when I wake up and when I go to bed for the night. If you were still up from December 1st when you wrote this, as far as I’m concerned, it counts. You don’t get to double-count it for December 2nd, though. 😀
