I Need Oomph!

Having nothing to do all day always seemed like a luxury when I was working.  There was a reason to get up and get busy 5 days a week.  Now if I wake up and don't want to get up, I can read while having breakfast in bed.  Nice!

Cooking and housecleaning aren't up there in my top ten.  Mom and I are so different. She has a tendency to do everything immediately.  The house is always "ready for company".  Now that I think about it, maybe its a kind of OCD. Her house has everything in its place.  At all times.  I'm guessing that after the two weeks of watching her great grandson, having my box of paints out on her kitchen table the entire time is probably driving her crazy!  I should take those home tomorrow.  lol

My own OCD is different.  Stuff in its place always? Not so much at home.  Hm. Maybe I'm not so OCD at home like I was at work?  They used to give me a hard time about how ordered things had to be.  But in my case, if it was ordered, we were more efficient and didn't spend time looking for things.

And maybe now that I'm home all the time, my OCD will take a different turn.  Taking it to the OCD level might give me some motivation to get more things done.  I know once the heat is over, it will be better.  Its difficult to be motivated when you can't do as much outdoors in summer.

And maybe that's just what I need. Put my OCD on overdrive, call it "getting organized" and get back some oomph.

Cuz I really need some oomph.
