cleaning up, time alone

B went to the State of Insanity (my pet name for CT) today to help his mom Christmas-shop. He should be back in a couple of hours unless he decides to stay over.

I have been cleaning up my office, which has gotten dustier and more packed with stacks of papers over the last four months. Turns out there was a nice rug at the bottom of it all - who knew?!

I dusted, vacuumed, and organized files. I clipped and organized all the newspapers I've been saving with possibly relevant articles for teaching geography. I uploaded some files to Blackboard for school, so except for sample questions for Tuesday's quiz, I'm fairly current in what I've promised students. Then I found some Mortite, and "insulated" my office windows. Then J came over and dealt with the squirrels, phase one. I've also folded Laundry Mountain, so if I can do a little bit of cleanup in the kitchen (it's really gross) our domestic life will be back to normal. Or whatever passes for normal - I think our standards have slipped quite a bit.
