My Room...

Something that i have found when cleaning my room...
After a couple of days of my room being "clean" (in other words...fairly picked up) it always becomes rather cluttered and messy looking. So i draw in a deep breath and decide to go and pick it up...again! I always start by hanging all the clothes up that during the process of trying to find something to wear for a day never seem to make it back on the hanger! Then i always seem to move to the desk. That is a stash all everything. As i try to put things away, i decide that something needs to be re-organized in order for me to put it away correctly! Which will result in a bigger mess!

yesterday i had a couple hours before i needed to be to work, so i tried picking up my room again. Then i found some scrapbooking supplies that needed to be put away. Big mistake! i had to re-organize all of my "saved" papers and notes to be able to make room for a few scrapbooking things! I had to leave the room in another mess and go to work. And another hour was spent on it after work. And now tonight when i go home from class...another hour will be spent on trying to tidy up the mess i created by trying to clean a not-so-very messy room. i am sure in the end after everything i have done it will look better! At least it should! i have put enough time into it...just to quickly tidy up!

The things we do to have a room organized!

Something Interesting...

Did you know...
"...when a car is driven, only about 20-25% of the high-quality chemical energy available in its gasoline fuel is converted into mechanical energy (to propel the vehicle) and electrical energy (to run its electrical system). The remaining 75-80% is degraded to low-quality heat that is released into the environment and eventually lost into space. Thus, most of the money you spend for gasoline is not used to get you anywhere."

This i found when reading my General Ecology book...at least there is something of interest in the book!

Styles and Change...

We just finished the movie "With Six You Get Eggroll". It is a movie from Netflix...a Christmas gift from Jessica. i must say i do like that Christmas gift!

After i got home from class tonight and mom had tucked the littlest kiddos into bed, we decided to watch a movie that had just come in the mail today. So mom and i started watching it...soon dad came in...then Lisa...then Laura and Ceara! So we had our own little party going on to watch the movie.

It is a cute movie...older i think it is set in the early 70's. i used to not like that time period at all! i remember Shasta talking about it and liking certain things from then...adn i would always say that i didn't like it one bit! Well i guess times change! i was surprised at how many things i saw in the movie that i recently saw in town of better yet...that i have now!
Many of the colours and some of the styles. Amazing how styles and desires and likes change!!

today...

This morning when i awoke...i found that it was snowing! i had heard we were supposed to get some snow...but had forgotten about it while i was sleeping i guess! But was suddenly reminded of it when i looked out the window. i like it when it snows...i usually don't go outside and play in the snow...but i like the look of it when it is coming down.

Although it did pose a bit of a problem for me for a short time...i was supposed to go into the college today and do some work and then have a class at 5pm. i was worried i might not be able to go if the snow accumulated and made the roads bad to drive on. But mom needed some packaging tape so i was able to make a practice run into the hardware store! The roads were fine...only snow packed...i didn't find any ice!

So after awhile...(i had to clean the bathroom first!) i went into the college. i am doing workstudy for Tanya this semester so i needed to do a few in her office before i had a class.

Not too much fun and exciting things for this afternoon.

Before i went into school today...mom helped me create a blog for myself! And then after that i was looking at different blogs...and of course Heidi Swapp had to be among them! i really like her scrapbooking pages and ideas. Of course i like a lot of the ladies that have ideas in the Creating Keepsakes magazine.

i am hoping to scrapbook tomorrow with some friends at the scrapbook store in town! i am going to finish my Rosebud album!!

my first notes from today

Today...my first day with my new blog! i am hoping this will be a lot of fun for me and for those who are going to read it. Although i feel my days are often very mundane and fairly uneventful...i'll give it a shot and see how interesting they can be once i write them down. And sometimes when you are living out that moment that seems to be boring and drab, looking back the next day or even a few hours back...what may have seemed really dull might have changed to being really fascinating!

One might never know how truly interesting the happenings of a day might be when living in the moment!
