Darn!

Every year one of my neighbors hosts a "multi-family" yard sale. Sometimes I'll put something out or let the kids man a table. She usually has it in June but decided to have it early. I wish I would have known sooner because there are still things in the house that I'd love to get out of here. I took so much stuff to the junk store over lent-and I'm glad I did. My point is had I known the sale was today, I'm sure I could dig up lots more clutter. It starts in an hour and a half and I'm certain I don't want to spend my quiet time scrambling around to find and price things. I'm even more certain I don't want to spend my day hovering over a table of my unwanted clutter. Maybe it's a good time to have a "free" table. I'll let you know.

Update on Waking Up

Just reporting that waking up without snoozing has not added or detracted from my days. It hasn't made my days better or worse. No, I'm not getting all the laundry finished by 7 am. I thought I'd be more tired at the other end of the day-but that hasn't happened. I still hit my wall at about 10:30. I'd have to say the only benefit is feeling good about getting up right away. Maybe I do feel a smidge better than when I sleep on and off for the next 20 minutes or so. My days are pretty much the same, though. So, if you're looking for something to transform your life, NOT SNOOZING is not your answer....snooze away. Will I go back to snoozing? No, I do prefer the habit of waking when the alarm goes off.
