Ahh. The days getting longer makes me really happy. Once it starts getting warmer I'll never stop whining and bitching, but right now I am just so ridiculously happy whenever I come out of work and it's STILL LIGHT OUTSIDE. And it's still light when I GET HOME, too. Ahh.
My hours are all different because it's the Easter holidays, and it's making me wish I had a job with more regular hours. Working dayshifts all the time would be lovely. I've been sleeping better, too - asleep within an hour or so, waking before my alarm clock, that sort of thing. :)
Tomorrow I'm going to start clearing out my house. I felt a little insulted, talking to my aunt Rena on the phone. For the past year I've been telling people that I -need- to get rid of the stuff I have here, and I've got people dragging their heels and being unhelpful because they want to still know that my mum's stuff is about, but don't want to have to deal with the emotional baggage or just the basic STORAGE issues. But when I mentioned it to her, I got what basically amounted to a lecture about how I really ought to already have started getting it together. :-/
Everyone agrees that it's a good idea in principle, but when you mention that their get-well teddies will be going as well...
I suppose I should just tell people that if they want it, they can HAVE it, but they need to actually keep it for themselves. Not in -my- house.
(I'm also getting annoyed at my family's insistence that I sell anything on the grounds that I 'need the money'. There are people a hell of a lot needier than I am. Also, I just want RID of it all, and selling stuff takes so much time...)
Tomorrow's Good Friday. Still quibbling about religion and faith. I'm not sure what (if anything) I want to do to mark tomorrow. Hmm.
