Always seems to make me feel more like myself.  Now, if I could just get warm (my cube is freezing&#8230; a slight purple color can be seen under my finger nails, so I know I&#8217;m not imagining it), things would be good.  *brrr*<\/p>\n<p>I am hoping to finish the second Ribby Cardi sleeve tonight.  If that happens, tomorrow (or tonight depending) I can rip out the top part of the first sleeve to fix the hole (stupid, freaking buggies). <\/p>\n<p>This weekend will see the beginning of the &#252;ber cleaning of the apartment starting with the living room and maybe even the hallway.  The most important part will be vaccuming the furnature, since that hasn&#8217;t happened in a very long time, and along the baseboards.  I need to swing by the hardware store tonight to pick up dust masks &#8212; I&#8217;m guessing I&#8217;m going to be kicking up a lot of it, and the last thing I need is to clean myself into an asthma attack.  Yeah, I know&#8230; with asthma you&#8217;d think I&#8217;d dust more, but I&#8217;m lazy when it comes to housework.  I&#8217;m hoping that by getting the apartment to a high level of cleanliness, it will be easier to keep it decent instead of where it is now&#8230; you can stop laughing now&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I also have plans to try to get to a place that sells better plastic storage solutions than I have now.  The lids don&#8217;t fasten very tightly on my current storage bins, which defeats the purpose.  For these plastic bins, I&#8217;m going to give a mixture of whole cloves, lavender, and cedar chips a try (although I&#8217;m also considering other things like southernwood, if I can find it&#8230; anyone have suggestions?).  Even perfumed, the smell of the moth cake I got from my LYS owner turns my stomach and makes me feel sick for half an hour after I go into my fiber room for just a couple minutes (I&#8217;ve only done this twice and it was bad), so stuff that isn&#8217;t made from a big, long chemical name would probably be better for my home.  And there&#8217;s the fact that my brother-in-law is planning on staying with us a week out of each month for work come the new year. The stuff I&#8217;ve got set up in the closet isn&#8217;t supposed to be used in rooms where people spend a lot of time.  <\/p>\n<p>Finally, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lisnews.com\/~mdoneil\/journal\/3771\" target=\"_blank\">don&#8217;t mess with librarians<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay&#8230; *deep breath* &#8230;that&#8217;s better&#8230; nothing quite like having your neck adjusted.
