Uncovering Lost Treasure

Today and Yesterday:
     It is the fifth day in a row where it is either rainy or cloudy here in norther California.  I need it to be sunny damnit!  Well since I can't really do anything outside I've been stuck cleaning up inside all day.  The hardest place to really clean and organize has to be the garage though.  Whenever we don't want to deal with actually putting something away where it is supposed to go, we just throw it into the garage to "deal with it later".  Instead of donating all of these miscellaneous articles of clothing and old electronics, they just pile up and clutter my garage.  Yet nostalgia hits every minute of me cleaning the garage and brings back memories which stop my cleaning and reorganizing. It is amazing what one can find when they clean up around the house.

I Hate Allergies!

Today:
     I have yet to meet another person anywhere that actually enjoys having allergies.  They get in my way regardless of what I'm doing.  Other than with medication I am not immune to them.  I could be laying down and the damned allergies will just start attacking me for no reason at all.  Itchy eyes, runny nose, and scratchy throat for a small period of time that seems to be hours long.  Dealing with my allergies was what I was dealing all day today for the most part. 

Today and Beyond

Today:
     Today my younger brother "graduated" from elementary school and is moving on to middle school or JR high depending on what you call it.  I've been hanging out with him all day and he seems to be happy but concerned since he is leaving his environment hes known for 6 years or so.  It is understandable though since we all really do fear change to some extent.  At the same time he was eager to just leave the school he didn't want to help clean up his classroom or anything.  I know that feeling too.
