So here I am...

Mopping and cleaning my house.  I think I've mopped my house 12 times over the past couple of days.  The reason?  My oil furnace was blowing exhaust into my house through our vents.  The result?  A nice layer of black dirt over all of our stuff.  Yum.  Steve worked on the damned furnace last night and so far so good.  Fingers crossed.

Anywho, so I'm mopping away, feeling like Eddie Murphy in Coming To America...

Me minus the goofy outfit and African American-ness.

and I'm trying to think of music I can put on my MP3 player.  Yes, I own a generic MP3 player, not a fancy Ipod.  I prefer generics. :)  So, have you ever just wracked your brain trying to figure out what motivating, awesome music you can listen to?  I do this every once in a while.  What usually sparks my music memory searches is a new song that I've fallen in love with.  Right now I'm loving Rihanna's song We Found Love.  So now my goal is to find equally amazing music to fill my MP3 player.  It's kinda hard.

Then, as I continue to mop, I think about some creative things I should be working on but I'm not.  Like maybe writing a childrens book?  I could do that, easy!  Or to start knitting a scarf?  Ever since I saw Sandi knitting I've been wanting to give it a try.  Or to finish my next piece that I've been working on?  Or to glue branches to this mirror I have for rustic home decor?  Yeah, I pretty much bounce around like this.  It's kind of annoying. 

Thankfully I have my blog to vent on every once in a while.  Otherwise I'm stuck with all these weird ideas swimming around in my head.  I figured I would just share so you could all see how truly scattered I can be. :)

Peacing out,
Nikki
