order

I've spent the Thanksgiving weekend bringing a little bit of order to my house. I'm one of those semi-mad scientist types with rooms right out of a scene in a movie. You know, books and magazines piled high, black electronic things strewn about, a row of computers, tools and cameras and guitars everywhere and a little Dachshund scampering about.

Well now that I'm almost done it all looks a lot better, you can still describe it the same way but it all looks a lot better.

I also spent the whole four day weekend at home. Didn't go out once. In our modern world this is quite an accomplishment. I'll bet a lot of you would have a hard time doing this.

I first tried this a couple of years ago. I had some vacation time to use and no plans so I decided to just stay home. It wasn't easy. Oh, I had plenty to do, still do. There is just some sort of anxiety for most of us when we try this. That shouldn't be as the home is where we have just about everything we have spent our money on.

So there you have it, try staying home for days when you don't have to and put things in order while you're there.
