Too much real life

peaceful_sandsIt's been a difficult week with long hours at work and me eventually falling sick with a completely draining cold (not life threatening but completely exhausting and demoralizing) so I've not achieved as much as I'd like, nevertheless I've still been able to oust a few bits and pieces.
I'm not counting all the work stuff that I've brought home rather than doing there as once finished it will all be taken back and so totals for the ins are Zero which is good. Yay for weeks with no time to shop (unless you count the tickets to a concert that I bought online . . . nah - they don't count - anyway they haven't arrived yet)
List of what went out
7 box sets of DVDs
8 dvds
1 coat
1 jacket
Total for the outs is 17.
Grand Total is 344 (previous total) - 0 (ins) - 7 (days till next Sunday) + 17 (out) = 354
So I'm not dissatisfied with this.
I tried listening to all the little used CDs in the car on the way to and from work, figuring if I didn't like them they could then be added to the pile of things to go. It was okay for the first couple of days but then I found myself feeling really down and realized that it was because I was just listening to music that I'd got no real current affection for, so while this isn't a bad idea as such - it needs interspersing with more music that I definitely do like. I'd reached the point where almost everything was being added to the to go pile just because I wasn't in the mood to listen to it *head desk* It isn't just me whose music tastes vary intensely with how they're feeling is it and for whom music can set the feel for the day? Tell me I'm not completely losing it! (LOL)
I think this week I'm going to followbeachlass's example and aim to clear the shelf and drawers in the bathroom and maybe the miscellaneous 'stuff' that has accumulated at the bottom of the closet!
