Kontan’s Place

I’ve had to endure the weekend without Djembe. I hate it when he’s not home. I’ve had company though. My aunt came to visit, bringing my young cousins. The girls have had a blast. (Ages 9, 7, 5, 5) My house is still standing too! Minimal damage to the bedrooms, but I think this is mostly due to the fact that my aunt insists on cleaning. She also insists on bringing junk food, paying for meals, and the kicker…oh this really gets me…sleeping on the couch. WHY! We have bed space, why sleep on the couch. Now, I don’t feel too horribly bad about this because we have the most comfortable couch. When I am tossing and turning, can’t get comfortable, the couch is where I end up. Anyway, not sure why, but I do know that arguing with her is futile.

I’ve been trying to spend less time on the net lately, go to bed earlier, and spend time with Djembe. I use the net as my time to just do “my thing”. It’s been a good thing. Although, today I stepped back into net life and played with blogs. Check out the redesigns at “About Me”, My Gran, and my new spot Rezo. Comp Chaos has new buttons but no big changes. Why a new blog? As if I don’t have ENOUGH space on the web! Go check it out and see. Makes sense to me…

You know, I think I’m going through an OCD phase. My house is pretty much in order. My classroom is in order. Both my classroom closet and desk are very organized. I have a new whiteboard behind my desk to keep a list of all things needing to be accomplished that week. I have also been using my cell calendar more. I’m in need of getting things together. It doesn’t drive me nuts when everything is upside down crazy, well, not all the time. I think so much better when there is order. Now if I can just maintain it.
