Saturday . . .

and a productive day it was!  I got a desk out of my bedroom (been wanting to do that for a while) and moved some other furniture, vacuumed, dusted and re-arranged (slightly).  All in preparation for a new mattress (and possibly moving a chair & ottoman upstairs).  Also solidified my plans for the small bedroom - lots of get out of there but a plan helps!

I don't really like watching TV from bed (don't know why because I can put on a show and fall asleep in no time) and I've always wanted a really comfortable chair to use for reading and watching TV.  Well, there's one that I moved to the room over the garage since Frey was using it as a teething toy - and the matching ottoman.  Just need to measure the matching one that's still downstairs to make sure it will fit!  Also need a floor lamp - but that's fairly easy!

Also got the groceries bought (including dog food) and vacuuming done downstairs (dog hair everywhere!) - so that means that tomorrow will be a fairly quiet day - laundry and bathrooms (neither will take too long).

Despite the exercise today and what I've already done, I'm planning on about 30 minutes on the bike today and, of course, tomorrow is a 45 minute day - if I'm smart I'll do it early but, despite all my intentions, that almost never happens.  Hopefully if it's as nice tomorrow as it was today I'll get in a nice walk with Freyja too!

It's been a while since I've done much introspection - but I did a bit today.  Nothing too serious or deep but just a looking back and finding out that I'm happy with where I am and how I'm doing.  I'm pleased with how work is going (the changes happening there are actually helping to make it more fun and interesting) and how my plans are going for my future.  While my life has had ups and downs, and there are definitely parts that I would love to re-do or at least do a bit differently, I must say that I'm happy with how it's turning out!

(I also took a free, on-line test for depression and found out that I'm not depressed - not that I thought I was, but it was interesting the questions they asked!)
