So, last week I
typed out two awesome and insightful blog posts. I mean these were amazing and
probably could have changed the world as we know it, except for one small tiny
detail…I didn’t actually save them! For the love! Who in the world is dumb
enough to do something like that? Ummm…that would be this girl right here. I
didn’t realize I hadn’t save them until I went to send them to my editor, aka
my hubs, and couldn’t find them. I was devastated, broken, and sad that the
world would never know my genius.
I am sure you are
wondering why I can’t just retype my genius. Well, I am a mom of a 16 year old,
a 12 year old, and a three year old, enough said. I had a brain before
children, a good one actually, but my kids have slowly stolen bits and pieces
of it over time. Then, a couple of years ago I had a full hysterectomy, and
now…I am just plain stupid! I had no idea that my brainpower was attached to my
uterus, but clearly it was. I am just amazed I remember who I am every day and
remember to keep my children alive.
I decided since I
clearly have no blog posts to share with you I would share my accomplishment
with you instead. Some of you may remember my post about my dirty little
secret. If you don’t remember it, I recommend you stop reading right now and go
to “Secrets Revealed” and read it first so this will make sense. The wow factor
will be lost on you if you don’t read it first. Go ahead, we will wait right
here for you.
Ok, glad you are
back. Are you ready for my big reveal? Drum roll please…
Yes, I have
cleaned filed, and put away that mountain of paperwork and miscellaneous items
we were hiding under my desk. It took me almost a whole day to go through it
all and put it away. Oh, and chase all the squirrels and rabbit trails that
appear when a person is going through paperwork and files. I learned things
about my children, my husband, and myself I didn’t even know. I am just
thankful I didn’t find any unpaid bills, but slightly disappointed I didn’t
find my lost brain cells hiding in there. Perhaps a million dollar check that I
had overlooked would have been a nice find as well. Alas I found no such joy
hiding in my pile of filing. I did find a Wonder Woman patch that I had
apparently ordered last spring that I now plan to iron on some bloomers for my
little miss sassy pants, so there is that!
At this point I
would love to tell you that I have mended my ways and am now an avid filer and
sorted. I have seen the error of my ways and have turned myself around for the
good of the miscellaneous paper and the sanity of my husband. Sadly, however,
this is not to be so. My end box is piling up as we speak and staring me in the
face as I type. This is why I am blogging about filing instead of actually
doing it. It’s not that I am procrastinating or avoiding per say, it’s just
that I am approaching the situation from another angle, yeah, that’s it! I need
prayer! Jesus needs to come save me from myself and my disdain for filing! If
any of you love to file, I will cook for you while you file my mess!
