Breakdown!
Dec. 18th, 2005 11:05 pmSo, partially due to the fact that I didn't sleep at all last night [not intentionally, I wanted to sleep, but... no. Just lay there until 6 when Mom knocked on the door to get me up], and partially due to stress from having a non-family member constantly around [Peggy, our friend from New Orleans who's been staying with us since the hurricane], I had the most spectacular meltdown today.
The end results were good; I compulsively cleaned my room and threw out half the clothes in my closet [by "threw out" I mean "stuffed into bags so Mom could sort through them for stuff she wanted, then Peggy could sort through, and whatever's left gets taken to the Welcome center"], and looked at paint chips to change the color of my room.
Of course, it wasn't really pretty while it was happening. I was home alone except for the doggehs, who went and hid in the kennel as I cleaned.
We also put all the ornaments on the tree today. And by "all" I mean "enough for many trees." Our tree is so gaudy and wonderful. *happy sigh* And Little Brother made chocolate chip cookies. Yum!
