Monday Morning Blahs

Not necessarily blue....just blah.

noun
the blahs, a feeling of physical uneasiness, general discomfort, or mild depression; malaise: After the long weekend many workers had the Monday-morning blahs.

As usual I didn't accomplish as much as I wanted to this weekend. Don't get me wrong, I really did get a lot done...just not as much as I had hoped for.

I still need to clear off my desk (that'll take probably an hour on its own....that sucker is pretty loaded with miscellaneous crap). Then I will finish picking up the random pile of blankets and whatnot in front of my closet, hang some more pictures on my walls (just half a wall left to decorate!) and then I will be finished in there.

Mostly.

The more I get done in my room the more I love my personal space. I bought sage green sheer curtains to hang in my windows that give my room a lovely light. Not to go all girly but I love it when they flutter in the breeze...very romantic.

I have most of my artwork on my walls...I think all that is really left to put up are some family photos. I also need to put my pet gate up (it doesn't do me much good sitting in the living room) and then I am thinking of hanging a half-curtain across my doorway since I can't fully shut my bedroom door...with my desk sitting by the door it has the teensiest overhang of about half an inch. Of course that problem is easily remedied...all I need is to dismantle my bed frame and buy a black metal one without headboards or footboards. I love the one I have now but my new matress is about a foot shorter than the frame and a good 6 inches on both sides (I downsized last year from a Queen to a Full). That's a lot of wasted space being eaten up by my frame...space that would otherwise allow my desk to fit and for me to walk at the end of my bed to use the bookshelf I've placed there.

Once all that is done then my room should be tres ooh la la.

Honey,
Sounds like you do need to purchase a metal bed frame...perhaps you could find one at a garage sale and just store your wood frame under your bed until you get a larger space. To shut ones bedroom door is very important. Love, DAD
Faceoff...better get serious...or you'll be crying the blues this summer...
