Just a quiet day

Today is a normal Saturday - much like any other.

I have plans to hop in the shower to get clean only to get all dirty all over again. Only its not the dirt id like to have. This dirty comes from actually cleaning up. *makes faces*

I also wish to go to the library. I love going there. Its quiet. I can think. I can explore books. Something that my mum gave me. When i was old enough to read she would bring my brother and I to the library twice a week. She never went inside .. she patiently sat outside with her crochet. We were allowed 5 books each time but it was mandatory we had to get at least ONE book to read READ. Long story short.. i love my library runs even now. And i still take out 5 books. However it takes me so long to read that i usually buy my reading books.

Once upon a time Sir and I used to read the same book. But he is such a fast reader he'd be long since done and i'd be on the third chapter! Im not kidding!! Maybe once i get home i will have more time to read. Actually i was thinking the other day that ball season is about to start up. First ball weekend is next week. That means he will be very occupied every weekend from then until August when school starts back up. Ample time to curl up and read all weekend long - providing my chores are complete. *nod*

I digress - Mum is seeing some guy. I'm very much a daddy's girl and loved (and still love) my daddy very very much. Heck its been 3 years (mum says 5) since he's past and i STILL cry. Anyway mum is seeing this guy. The other day im in my office and i overhear him telling mum that there isnt much room in here and she should get a bigger place. All im thinking is what the hell?! Who are you to come into MY house and tell her that its too small?? I make due with what i can buddy - i dont see you volunteering any funds to pay for a bigger place!!
Umm.. ya..
I was upset to say the least. But what followed was a bit strange to me. Earlier this week i went through the "i wanna stay home from work and clean" stage.. right up to i want to take everything out of my house.. throw it out and start all over.

Sir, of course, said no to all of those. Work pays the bills and i don't need to throw anything out. Even he was bothered by what my mum's new found friend stated. It bothered him a-lot. To the point where he told me to keep a close eye on my mothers financial doings. Which i will do because he told me to.

So.. today.. since i'm not at work nor do i have to go into work (although i should because i do have reports to pull out - but i wont) I am going to clean the main living area. That would be the kitchen / dining room / living room. Clean out all the clutter. Make it look nice again - like it did when sir came over. *nod* Then i will move onto other rooms of the house.

I do live in a small space. I make due with what i have. Small spaces can look untidy quickly because well... their small. I will fix that. Or try to. *nods*

So im off to shower.. then get into cleaning clothing.. and clean and clean and clean...
I hope i have time for the library today.....
