Laundry WITHOUT my little "friends"

[SmartYetStupid]

Gah!  I remember back in the day when I was on Percocets (what?  A mere month ago?) and doing laundry as well as other household chores were FUN with my little yellow "friends."  I got up today and thought, "Ugh, I have to do laundry and dust..."  I thought how much fun it would be to just take one little pill and then it would be a fun day of house cleaning and laundry washing....

THEN, I thought to myself, "Good GOD woman!  Laundry and housecleaning is NOT supposed to be fun, you moron!"

So.... I got up, got coffee, and came on here.... I still ain't started the damn laundry or dusting.  I don't want to do it.  Blah!  Blah blah blah!  

But, I will do it eventually.  I'm a procrastinator and will probably get started on it around 6:00 tonight.  LMAO!  

Anyway... I just wanted to share that little bit of information.  I mean seriously... We know we have a problem when our addictions make house cleaning and laundry FUN for the love of all things holy. LOL!

Can someone please tell me how to properly do laundry (never knew the colors were segregated!) - - so that I can work on a deal with the wife similar to R2R's ??

Just think though, we are "just us" now no extra additives. Whatever we do it comes from the love or compassion  we have for others, we do things because we "really" want to. AND we don't do those things that we use to think were SO important. How amazing does that feel?? (smiles) I hope all of you have an awesome week, we are all human, mistakes will happen be true to you and honor Jesus our Lord and Savior, and everything will fall into place, except for all the laundry and the house BUT who cares.....lol         -Beth

I remember the few weeks before Thanksgiving 2007 when we we're hosting; I was always working away from home and took some time off to 'spruce' the house up.  Well that sprucing led to a interior painting, new light fixtures, new wood floors in a couple of rooms, new landscaping, etc :-)....was I tired? Not a bit...after I stopped, I didn't do anything except exercise and eat for 3 months.  

Now I'm normal and have to pace myself...miss that energy sometimes.

Ah, memories...  I remember a couple years ago I would LOVE to take a few hydrocodones and spend the day in the backyard raking leaves and having a huge fire and obsessively cleaning my backyard.  I could go like 6 or more hours!  
And when we moved from michigan to Cali, I packed and unpacked mostly by myself.  I was a packing, organized maniac. And yes on the housecleaning!  What's the fun in it now?  
now when the kitchen floor is too sticky, i just wipe it with a paper towel.  Too tired to mop.  
grrrrrr

It is so nice to know there are people out there who know EXACTLY what I am going thru!! I used to literally vacuum my husband out of the house- my house has always been immaculate!! Now that I am getting off vicodin my house is a disaster- but my husband has not been complaining about the amt of sex he's getting lately :)
