Making Confetti…
The current working pile and the bag o confetti
I’m 52 years old. And we live in a paper society. I’ll pause while you do the math… dum de dumm..
Did I mention that I hate filing? dum de dum…. [finger twiddling]

Ah yes, boxes and boxes of unsorted papers that represent the “history of my life”
Every time I’ve ever begun to tackle this now Herculean task of going through it, sorting, filing, and THROWING AWAY and SHREDDING IT!!!! two awful words pop into my head…

I did it again! Almost too pooped to type but…
I friggin’ DID IT! — AGAIN!
You may recall that yesterday I was all a twitter about having done 45 minutes of exercise — also known as – domestic duties.
Today, mere moments ago, I DID IT AGAIN!

So… facing the inevitable and not finding ANYTHING else to distract me, I proverbially girded my loins (anyone know how to gird? — what is “girding” anyway?) but I digress…
I was ready. the moment had come to START… just START, finishing will be weeks away, but to START that particular project.
So, I put on a new podcast from my favorite DJ “Mr Andi Mik” and got to work…
I just reached a stopping point, and turned to pause the mix and was SHOCKED!

Eeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyy Way….
I was well and truly AMAZED-ed.
See I ur a colludge grad-u-ut! I knows some BIG wurds.
So… the timer on the pod cast read 3 minutes left, 58 minutes played.
