Mondays chill

 It's cold outside feels like winter is finally arrived. I really wouldn't know because I haven't been outside today. I've spent the day trying to stay warm looking outside the window of my apartment. It's not like I haven't done anything. I worked out on my own bike pumped for an hour then I had my friend/cleaning person come over worked on my kitchen for a little bit I made my place look a little bit more presentable. Between my caregiver in the mornings and my cleaning person I kind of keep a fairly decent apartment. There are nooks and crannies however where things get so piled hot these folks refuse to touch it. So one of these days I'm going to have to just get a trash can or bag and just start going through these nooks and crannies and throwing crap in the bag. I have been trying to go through all my stacks of mail much of which I've never opened and feeding it directly into the shredder. I have a small Shredder and so I often worry I will burn the engine out by feeding in too thick of pieces of mail so sometimes I will take the time and open thick pieces of mail like from the government or the insurance companies and feed the shredder much more edible pieces. Trouble is it's not a industrial Shredder so the little bucket that the shreds fall into gets full quite quickly and then it's a matter of waiting around till the naval body person is around that can lift the bucket of shreds into some sort of garbage disposal thing that I can get on with my shredding. This means again I have to wait until one of my people shows up who can assist in this project.


I love the time right after what am I clean people get done with part of my apartment. I like to sit in the clean space and pretend that I'm not going to mess it up but sooner or later life gets in the way and entropy begins to take its toll whether it's me piling stuff on the table when I come in from the market or tipping over crackers, cookies are potato chips by the computer/ flat screen which eventually falls to the floor where I will further Crush the item adding to the chaos which entropy renders. But for the first few moments, hours the apartment is a delight to sit in and enjoy the clean Stillness.


As I remarked earlier it's cold. Tomorrow's Tuesday and I've already been notified that we will be having a meeting of The Advisory Board tomorrow which means I need to dress warmly and head into the city. A roll to the bus stop then a bus trip into the train then to the library across the street to assist ink. Yes, it'll be cold but I think I can dress warm enough to get through the next couple hours it'll take two go to the meeting and Back Again.
