If someone does not count in my mind, I don't let them clutter it. I release them as soon as my mind can register them. What my life brings me, is what I decide I want, its my life, my decision. No need for me to keep the clutter, it just makes a mess of everything. I see all, I get it, I am here daily, writing, monitoring, chatting, laughing, the clutter means nothing, I see it.
What words have formed is my way of blogging, its a thought process, like a writer, when the writer is thinking what he/she is writing, and it all forms into words. In these words, there are clues, in everyone's words there are clues, I see it.
Its Saturday, I am officially off, I will be out and about all day, my mind will be at ease. Looking and laughing among the people who enjoy life and not clutter.
Today, the first thing I will do is get my x-large "cawfee" and think of all of you....
Enjoy your day, Clutter free!

ReplyDeleteHey Carol!!! I'm having my cawfee right now.....Maybe I've had toooooo much!
ReplyDelete*Oh no you di'nt* LOL
ReplyDeleteMorning Glories!
ReplyDeleteBirdee you nut! Congrats on first!
Carol I am living in clutter right now and need to figure out how to either move around it or ignore it or toss it all out! LOL
Loved the cawfee with white out! LOL PS I need a calendar too as I always forget what day it is. I just checked and my wall calendar is still on Feb. I guess I should flip that.
Off to fill my cawfee cup!
You remind me of that dark haired girl on The Real Housewives of NY!!!! The one that is a chef.
ReplyDeleteActually a cross between her and Jill. She's the one with red hair.
You would so fit in! LOL
Hey LYNN!!!!! I've missed you!
ReplyDeleteI'll help you with your clutter, if you help me with mine!
Cleaning with friends is the Best!

Hey Shirley! 10!! Yeah!!!
I was hoping I'd get out of the house today, but it's freak'n raining here. I hope it's not going to rain all day!
ReplyDeleteMorning Shirley!
ReplyDeleteBirdee I am afraid that if you helped me with mine you would run screaming into the hills! LOL I will help you with yours in a heart beat! Anything to not deal with mine. LMAO
Lynn, ha! I'd give it a shot. I sometime's work better under pressure! In fact, I've often thought about being one of those organzing people, you know, like on Clean House...I do much better on other people's home. In fact, I cleaned house's, apartments, business' for along time. It was my second income.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I wish for is a vacuum that is quiet. Some day's I just can't stand the noise.
ReplyDeleteGood morning feathered friends!

ReplyDeleteWell you do have a point there. Have I scared everyone else away. Sometime it seems after I post everyone goes into hiding. I don't bite people. Well maybe in private...
ReplyDeleteI changed my avatar cause I thought maybe my sun would help melt the snow off Birdee's back.
ReplyDeletebut
ReplyDeletemaybe
ReplyDeletenot.
ReplyDeleteOK have a good day people.
ReplyDeleteit's nice to see your yellow again.
ReplyDeleteyou have a good day, too
Hi Birdee! Congrats on first! By the way, you're right--I've never seen chickenowl boobs. :)
ReplyDeleteCarol, I know what you mean about mind clutter. I just have to close my eyes and picture calm things--I try to get rid of all the words.
Hi LynnD! Want some more of that creamer this morning? I'll just pass on over.
Hi Shirley!! How nice to see you this morning! Ummm, you forgot my protein shake. I guess it's all that tax clutter in your head! Really, I'm so happy to see you!!! You always make me laugh.
Hi Mo! I'm sorry it's raining.
It's just gorgeous here! It's sunny and going to be 79! We're headed to Columbia, SC to watch my son play a lacrosse game.
Have a great Saturday!
My clutter in my post also refers to the clutter in my mind! LOL
ReplyDeleteMo feeling better just snotty. So I guess getting back to normal.
Morning Sandie I will take some creamer! Thank you!
CAROL - Triple luv your XL CAWFEE!!! I agree with BIRDEE...you are a cross between Jill and Bethany on the NY HW's!!! "Oh, no you didn't...."!!! Luv it!!!
ReplyDeleteBIRDEE - Congrats on first!! So good to see you today!!
SHIRLEY - Be as tedious as you want.....I'm just glad to see you here!!
Good morning to MOHO, LYNN D, and SANDIE!!!
Clutter is where I'm at. In my mind and in my house....let's just say it is VERY lived in!!!
Thanks for the laughs this morning HOoters!! I'm off and running now....Solo and Ensemble Contest and WYSO. A couple of you have heard Sam's solo. I think she is totally gonna rock it!!!
WOW! 86 comments already?? Good morning Hooters and congrats on #1 Birdee.
ReplyDeleteShirley, I'm glad you are trying to melt the snow of Birdee's back.
Daylight savings starts tonight. Yippee!
Clutter? As I progress through the peri-menapausal state I find that I lose things in my mind all the time. The clutter seems to disappear. Not sure that is a good thing......
I don't have a lot of clutter in my house. Littel spots of it. But with only 2 people how much shit can you have or need? I have been on a 'give it away' kick lately. Good will and Easter Seals has done well. Mr. Goldie groans that we could have made a fortune by now selling the stuff! LOL
Hope everyone has a great day.
88
ReplyDeleteGood morning GOLDIE & MEK!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah....I got 89....the year I got married!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! I go away for a little while and come back to 90 post's? love it!
ReplyDeleteShirley, love your marching and Thanks for trying to melt the snow off of me. You're so sweet. I didn't mean to leave you. Sorry♥
Hey Jodi, Goldie and Sandie!!!
I need to get some stuff done...I'll try to jump back in later. But, if the weather improve's I may get outa here for awhile.
Hope I wasn't too tedious this morning. LOL
xoxoxox

Morning All...
ReplyDeleteJust a fly by to say hello!!! I couldn't log in at all yesterday and had trouble this morning....Was starting to have withdrawal!!! Hope everyone has a great day!!!
MR. EBJ and I slept in late today, it was so nice.
ReplyDeletePoe usually will wake us up because he wants to be let out of his cage, but he was a good boy and didn't say anything.
Over the years, I have gotten good at pushing mind clutter out. I can't function if it's there, I am a worrier and it causes me to lose sleep.
Hi to Lynn, Mo, Sandie, Goldie, MEK, and Jodi!
Sandie, how many of us are in on the necklace event?
MO, "weatherskank" made me LOL!!
OK gonna finish my cawfee, I will be back!
Hi Scirishy!
ReplyDelete105
ReplyDeleteBirdeeeeeeeeee Love seeing you at 1st today, even with all that snow you keep dropping everywhere.
ReplyDeleteShirley, Shirley, Bo Birley, Banana Fana Fo Firley..... Congrats on #25. Don't forget to mark that down.
Carol So do you put White-out in your cawfee instead of creamer? I guess it would save on calories. :) Little by little, I am trying to de-clutter around here. I've lived in this house since '71 and I have accumulated too much stuff then my second husband brought a bunch of his stuff and added it to the mix. Yikes!
Mo Congrats on #69.
EBJ Congrats no #100 and on being able to sleep in a bit today. :)
VIG I'm VERY excited for you. (((HUGS)))
Jodi Good luck to Sam! I heard she is great! I bet she will rock it. :)
ReplyDeleteIs everyone busy clearing their brains and homes of clutter?
ReplyDeleteHi everybody, happy Saturday!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on first Birdee
Shirley, Thanks for the slimfast and ...when was there a preference for being "ladylike" around here??? haha.
ReplyDeleteJodi- How did Sam's Solo go and why haven't I heard it??? :(
ReplyDeleteChillin at home now. Did a little shopping :) and got some GREAT stuff for the grandbabies. 4 at 1.99 for shirts? Crazy. Also got them their own super soft fleece blankets to keep here (for their porta-cribs) and a shirt for myself and socks for both and shoes for Brynn and a Sears reusable bag all for-- all for 29.97!!!
Mr. Goldie says I have to stop now. He says there is a point of too much and that perhaps I am making their parents feel like I am going overboard (I said that is not possible with grandchildren). HOWEVER, when I look at the stash of stuff I have for them - it is a bit much) Ok, I also was told that I CAN NOT buy them Dora and Cars bikes (with training wheels) because maybe their daddy would like to buy their first bikes. Damn, it is soooooooooo much more fun to be a grandma than it ever was to be a Mom.
It was 60 here on Thursday- upper 50's and sunny yesterday and tomorrow we have a winter storm watch. Welcome to WI!!!
CAROL - So many thoughts swirling around in my head after reading your blog. I am pondering the literal and figurative clutter. I think answers coming to mind will be on the agenda today. THANK YOU.
ReplyDeleteAnd....loved your lrg cawffee cup.
Good afternoon to everyone.
GOLDIE - First things first, Sam got a starred first on her viola solo. That means that she's going on to the state competition!!! I am beyond excited and so very proud of her!!! :O) Next Saturday is her next WYSO concert. She has worked really hard for it. She is first chair and viola section leader. I have a ticket with your name on it if you are available to go. For those of you that are not in the area, God willing, I will be videotaping the concert and hopefully be successful in uploading all or part of her concert!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope everyone has a good Saturday night!!
HODI...big congrats to Sam! She worked so hard and deserved to win it!! YAY for her!
ReplyDeleteJodi!
ReplyDeleteThat is great news.. see the yellow always arrives.. ♥♥♥
Birdee.....
ReplyDeleteI have missed you so.. Congrats on first thru something (I did not count).. I think its time to change your avatar, I will do it for you 2nite.. So fun, cause I get to pick..
Lani,
ReplyDelete"I am pondering the literal and figurative clutter"
That is what its all about!
:O)
Shirley,
ReplyDeleteSo good to see ya 2day.. Loved your marching.. Fun!
J/L,
ReplyDeleteI drink my "cawfee" black, however on some crazy ass days, ya never know if white out will end up in the "cawfee"
:O)
Lynnd,
ReplyDeleteI look at the calender 5million times a day.. for some reason, the date never absorbs in my brain..
Birdee,
ReplyDeleteSo what are ya saying.. I am a New Yorker??? :O)
Bebbi,
ReplyDeleteFrom area 51, congrats on your new car, Enjoy it!!! And, glad Mr Bebbi is enjoying the scooter..
EBJ,
ReplyDeleteI hope you dinner 2nite is going well, spending time with family is the best..
Scirish,
How funny, "withdrawals" when I am away, I go thru them to..
I'm here! I'm here! I'm here!
ReplyDeleteI'll bbl.........
Goldie,
ReplyDeleteI love to hear about your grandbabies, I think you should buy them whatever you want (no disrespect to Mr Goldie). Just be
careful tho, as they might want you to buy them their first car.. :O)
Iteach,
ReplyDeleteYou are so cute..
ITEACH - I see you!!!
ReplyDeleteCAROL - Thanks!!! I am a proud Mom today....and you're right, MAJOR YELLOW!!!
MOHO - Thank you!! Almost missed your "rosy" comment....lol!!
ReplyDeleteJODI- I AM SO THERE!!! Just tell me when and where and I will be there. Congrats SAM!!!!!!!!! I am so proud (and she isn't even mine!)
ReplyDeleteI am calling you right now!!
I just got the chills, how excited is Goldie for Jodi..
ReplyDeleteThe friendships here are so very amazing..
Kudos to you both!!!!
I just talked to Jodi- I have a ticket and I am going!!!
ReplyDeleteWahoo Sam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Yes Carol, the friendships are real and special!
I'm trying to do some major house cleaning so I'm going to pop everytime I get something accomplished.
ReplyDeleteZona- My high school years were good. I was a band geek and I formed a lot of fun relationships. I felt very comfortable with the group of kids I hung around which was good. My junior high years were completely awful. My parents were overprotective and strict. So I didn't get into too much trouble.
JODI & SAM - What wonderful news. Congratulations, and I am not surprised. I think of all of the possibilities in your life with your music. xoxoxo Lani
ReplyDeleteJodi: Congrats to Sam for making first chair and going to state!! I bet you are proud!! My oldest son was in the band but he was never 1st or 2nd chair. WTG SAM!!
ReplyDeleteGoldie: Too fun, lucky you to go and see Jodi and all. I am envious of the fun you are having with the grandchildren too! My sister is a grandma two times now as of last week! She is going to see her first GRANDSON in Sacramento on March 16th and of course see her grandaughter too (she is two).
I am totally a "grandma wannabe"!
Carol: Thanks for the congrats on the car. I am so excited. Mr. Bebbi ran over my foot today scootering around. He about gave my mom a heart attack! She can't take too much of Mr. Bebbi without getting a little anxious. He's quite a handful (in more ways than one *wink*).
ITEACH - When you're done you can come and do mine!!! :P
ReplyDeleteCAROL - Yes, she is an AMAZING friend!!!
LANI & BEBBI - Thanks....I'm still grinning. So proud!!!
Beebi- thanks. I gotta tell you that I never really thought about being a Grandma until it happened, and it is the BEST thing ever. Who knew you could actually like (love) little people better then you ever did your own kids? Well, it happens. I would love 10 more, but not likely to happen, so happy with the 2 I have.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to experience it someday!
CAROL - I sent you a snippet of Sam's solo to your cell.....did you get it?
ReplyDeleteHey JODI----- :)
ReplyDeleteJODI_ my email didn't come thru. A bunch of jibberish words- no sound :(
ReplyDeleteGOLDIE - I uploaded the video on ms...and it actually worked!!!
ReplyDeleteDAMN....just realized that I have to "spring" ahead tonight, so I best get my ass in bed.
ReplyDeleteGOOD NIGHT HOoters!!!
Jodi- Just watched it- BRAVO SAM!!!
ReplyDeleteCarol, thanks for the blog today! Your flip videos always put a smile on my face. :)
ReplyDeleteJodi: Jeez! Thanks for saying that about springing ahead because it reminded me to remind my mother who works tomorrow at Sams! So, if not for you, my Mom would have been late for work and she would have been totally stressed out. I thank you and, unknowingly, my mother thanks you.
ReplyDeleteGoldie: What you just said is exactly what I have heard from several of my friends and family who are grandma's now. I hope I get to experience it too.
ReplyDeleteBirdie-Congrats on first!
ReplyDeleteShirley- Thank you so much for the food today. I loved watching you play!
I'm so exhausted but wanted to stop in and answer whoever asked how many people we have so far in the necklace share (I'm sorry but I'm honestly too tired to look--I think it was EBJ?). We have 10 right now.
ReplyDeleteJodi, your daughter was great!
Goodnight owls!
Ahhh, decluttering! Speaking of which, Ross is shutting down his NBC chat room, so we're having a "farewell to Rosschat" night tonight... big blowout party!
ReplyDeleteIf any of you owls are nostalgic for the days of Rosschat, c'mon in and say goodbye tonight!
Whabby,
ReplyDeleteWow, why is he shutting it down? What are the rosschatters going to do? I know how close some of you are. I guess Ross is just ready 2 move on. Can't you guys make your own chat room? Maybe it is for the better, as if you do make you own, you will not have to deal with trolls and such, as you can keep the link to it private..
I checked out his "Inside Dish" some of them were funny. I really wish him good luck in his new adventure.. I still am grateful for that blog, as this nest would have not been created.. However I am more grateful that he is not into being tedious, cause that sure worked out well..
And thanks for the invite, I don't love chat rooms, way to fast, and ya never know who is wandering about..
Just as the nest worked out for us, I am certain, you guys can find a place as well...
Whabbear, Where is the goodbye happening? I don't see any current posts on ross's blog.
ReplyDeleteSandie,
ReplyDelete10.. fun.. thats for putting it together, Sleep Well...
Ohh..i cant go to Userplane. The last time I did I got a nasty virus and it is horrible to have to fix those. But please tell everyone I said hello. Is Jen-Jen still around? There are some great people on there. I wonder where they will end up.
ReplyDeleteBebbi,
ReplyDeleteIt seems its happening in the original chatroom, so I would say if you want to pop in go there..
I meant I wonder where they will end up meeting, do you know, Whabby? Ha..I never finish my...

Bebbi,
ReplyDeleteYou stepped on me, but I am strong, so I am not hurt..
Congrats on 169..
Iteach,

ReplyDeleteBEBBI - You're welcome!! Although this is the one that I hate, cuz now I've only had about 4 hours of sleep. Oh well.....I can always nap this afternoon!!!
