| Imbigggen the picture and snoop away! |
I am in the middle of packing. That is one of the most hateful jobs. I have a junk drawer in my kitchen and I asked my daughter to clean out the drawer. The above picture is what she did. It is like a damn I Spy book.
Everything is a disaster. Here...look!
Kitchen. There will be no love lost with these cabinets. Rose? Did I actually choose that?
Crap that needs to be recycled. The Ungrateful Bastard (see right sidebar) needs to be fed.
Crap and a Pogo stick!
Seriously! I don`t even know why I am posting this one.
And here is the Coup de grâce. Me! Look at those eyebrows! Caterpillars envy me! The hair! WTF? I will say I don't go out into the world looking like this. My face is so broken out. Acne and wrinkles. Thanks a fucking lot.
Now you can go about your life and be ever so grateful that things are not like they are at my place.
Damn, I just took another look at my picture and DAMN! blagh

I just have to ask, WHAT is that light green... thing... under the pill bottle in the first picture? LOL!
ReplyDeleteMoving is craptastic! It's like pulling a really really sticky bandaid off. Do you pull it off fast and risk taking skin or do you pull it off "painfully" slow. Either way, it hurts.
We moved around quite a bit before we bought this house. I feel your pain, truly! Good luck!
Miss B., just so you know, in the last 5 years I've lived in 5 different houses and in two countries (with a baby). That's nothing!
ReplyDeleteAhhahahahah
I used to hear about a points system to determine your level of stress. Yours is obviously right up there. My only advice is to remember that at some time it will get better. It always does. I think you may just have to grin and bear it. And stay away from mirrors.
ReplyDeleteLove the I Spy drawer. maybe they could use it in the Gardens of Time face book game. I l adore your bedroom. Mine is much worse but I can no longer see it as last night The Teenager unscrewed a light bulb from it's ceiling fan and now we have NO ELECTRICITY upstairs. Ah yes. Ain't life grand.
ReplyDeleteMoving turns us into beasts! It just does. I remember crying about the fact that I was no longer a girl the last time we moved. I had bruises all over me and looked like homemade sin.
ReplyDeleteLife will smooth out again at some point. I swear it.
I can always count on you to manage to run me through about 35 different emotions in two minutes flat. That is a gift you have in sharing all the things you do. The thing is, you ended with funny. Funny is good. You are such a stress case right now, with all you're dealing with. You WILL make it through all of this and start feeling like you recognize yourself again at some point. I promise you will.
ReplyDeleteYou are one brave chick putting your photos on the big wide web. I reckon my bedroom is on a par with yours, and we aren't going anywhere. Oops.
ReplyDeleteThese are funny pictures; but you don't look that bad.
ReplyDeletecould I borrow your sense of humour, please?
ReplyDeleteOr better still, could you pass it on to me?
it might make it easier for me to cope with my own crap.
Doesn't everyone have at least one drawer like that? It's art. I love that smile on your face. Let me tell you that the worst hell on earth, other than dealing with your disease or someone else's, is PACKING. The upside is you get to get rid of lots of stuff. Metaphorically, it gets rid of lots of anger, if you throw with rapid movements.
ReplyDeleteYou're doin' okay, kid.
my most favorite part of moving is finding all the crap that i don't use any more and placing it ever so gently in the big green stinky dumpster....
ReplyDeleteor maybe my most favorite part is finding all the crap that i forgot i had and it's like my birthday all over again! oooo for me?
it's a drudge...that's for sure... but it gets done and you move and start again.... just think of all the unencumbered, presently empty junk drawers that need filling!
hahahahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteactually I do feel better now.
Love your mad crazy hair

Birdie, all I see is your smile and even though things are difficult your inner humor and strength shines in this post!
ReplyDeleteSo, do you eat Quaker Oats? Sorry, I just had to ask :)
ReplyDeleteBirdie -- Moving is tiring for sure.
ReplyDeleteI have moved so many times in my life I have lost count. I think I lost count at 22 times.
I always look at moving and packing as a major housecleaning. After the move everything is in its right place and sparkling clean for awhile. Look forward to that.
Quite a few of my cupboards are stuffed full of goodness knows what! lol your eyebrows look slightly worse than mine! There are still some boxes full of old essays and more goodness knows what, in the attic and spare room, that have been there since we moved in seven years ago!
ReplyDeleteUnder the hair and the eyebrows is that lovely smile and those friendly eyes. Hello Birdie - at least packing enables a bit of a clearout at the same time.
hey lady
ReplyDeletestay strong. you have beautiful eyes
You are hilarious and so, so brave...I would never show my junk drawer in public. ;-)
ReplyDeletehave patience dear!, soon your home wil be your castle.
ReplyDeleteXX
Dear Birdie, Moving is not fu!! No doubt about it. Plus you have other stressors in your life, with your Mom's health, etc... I wish I could make everything lovely and wonderful with a magic wand. But life isn't like that, and we just have to muddle through the best we can.
ReplyDeleteBut you are a really brave and strong woman. And you have a good sense of humor. So I know you are going to make it! I love the hairdo! :-)
LOL! OOps!! Moving isn't "fun" either!
ReplyDeleteThrow out the microwave... that's what's giving you wrinkles!!! Seriously, you have a beautiful face, Birdie and you are loved... so doncha worry about a few lines. But you really must get rid of the microwave. It changes all the structure of the food and water and makes it NOT GOOD for you and those you love. Guess you're moved in by now and things will be getting better.
ReplyDeleteI spy a purple crayon. I've been watching Hoarders on A&E. Your place is spotless compared to that. And even in the midst of the chaos and pain, you a sweet smile.
