Mar. 25th, 2004 04:09 pm*Bored* of work now. Want to go home (well, technically, want to go to St P, but whatever. Want to be not-here, is the point).
You can tell it must be spring, as I am getting spring-cleaning urges. Seriously - around this time of year, I start wanting to tidy everything up, & clean things, & possibly even throw things away. Last year this coincided quite neatly with moving house, so I got quite a bit chucked out then. Last night I managed to drastically tidy up the space by the sink in the bedroom, though doubtless it will become chaotic again unless I tidy up everything else in the area as well. Next weekend, I reckon.
Maybe it's to do with the weather lifting - somehow, the longer the days get, and the brighter it gets, the *bigger* the world feels. And then I want the house to feel bigger as well, which means that I need to get rid of accumulated junk. Happily, also, summer means that the house *does* get bigger, as it can spread into the garden. I love the lovely garden. I swear one of the raspberry plants I planted out yesterday grew a good inch more of shoot over yesterday afternoon.
Ooh look, I can go home soon.
