A Million Little Packages
Hell might look like this. (Isn't it funny how often I refer to "hell" when I don't actually believe in it? I am intrigued by the idea of hell and think perhaps it's everywhere here on earth right next to all the heaven.)
It doesn't look all that different. Except that you can walk around without impaling your foot on a Lego block.First of all, I need to say a huge thank you to all of you who have placed orders in my Etsy shop. Old pre-blog friends and blogs friends alike have really made my week. Seriously! I know that so many of you are watching your pennies too so...THANK YOU!!!! Most of the orders are going out today.
Yesterday was productive. I have a lot I need to do that I didn't do. But the most amazing thing I did was to clean up Max's room. I don't do this nearly as often as I should, but it's a delicate business. There are always about thirty thousand Lego ships, buildings, forts, ammo sheds, and towers that MUST NOT BE THE SLIGHTEST BIT CHANGED. Since I can't break them apart I have to carefully put them on higher ground and then sort through the loose Lego pieces into several different bins.

I can't stand the mess of his room as it almost always is. He can't stand to have it cleaned. But he didn't put up a fuss yesterday because his carpet has fleas. We haven't had an infestation of fleas in many years. Our cat isn't usually particularly prone. But I guess having five furry beasts living here during a very bad season of fleas made it inevitable.
So I cleaned and sprayed. I am very relieved. Although I'll admit that I don't love spraying any chemicals in my house. Max was worried about that too. I know the fleas were bothering him though because he was imagining that they were all over him. He also started to worry that he had lice because his head was itchy. He was itchy everywhere. I explained to him how once you get some flea bites and see a few of them you can get a serious case of the heebie jeebies and it can make you itch. I worry about these things too so we made sure he doesn't have lice. (He doesn't have lice)
I better keep this one short. I must go apply for the maid job which I didn't do yesterday. Plus I need to look on Craig's list for more possibilities. It would be incredibly awesome if I could just start selling more of the stuff I have. I am so happy to be packing a bunch of orders up today!
