Cleaning ...
Sep. 3rd, 2010 02:25 pmStill in a bad mood, kinda mad, kinda hurt. It'll pass, but ... yeah, probably not today.
But (!!) I did some cleaning. I cleaned out the cabinet above my microwave. It's a much-neglected cabinet and had quite a few expired foody things in it. Tossed those. Although feeling guilty about the waste, I'm very happy with the feeling of just getting the old out of there! My microwave currently (until I decided exactly what to do with my kitchen and can afford to change it) sits on one of my countertops. I hate that, as my kitchen doesn't have a lot of counter space, to start with. The microwave had an extra bread box lying on top, where I kept a few cooking things: my onion chopper, a slicer, etc. Once I cleaned out the upper cabinet, I had plenty of room to put those cooking things in there. So the breadbox is gone from the microwave now. Whoopeee! You have no idea how much I HATED having that breadbox there. I had to move it every time I wanted to get my olive oil or any cooking oil, and it was a pain in the hoo-hah. I should have moved it a long time ago. Now the extra breadbox is on another counter -- in what would otherwise be dead space -- holding vitamins and stuff like that. So, I some clutter off a counter and hidden away and got rid of the dreaded/hated breadbox 'o' doom at the same time. WIN!!
A little bit of happiness peeking in around the corners of my grey mood. Yay.
