It was a creature that I had no control over and it seemed to get bigger. I feared it would escape its holding tank. Finally, I conquered the beast. I finished washing all items that made up the 3x4 foot pile of laundry in my storage closet. I am proud of this fact. It has taken me since winter to complete this task.
I am also doing better with paying my bills on time. I still hate checking the mail, but I know that I must do it. I tend to receive nothing but bills and junk mail neither of which are incentives to check the mail.
I am on this kick of wanting to rid my apartment of so much stuff. I don't even know what it all is and perhaps it could be stored elsewhere, given away, sold to someone else, or just... well, reorganized or thrown. My closets are disasters. I have way too many "project" t-shirts, which means the shirts are too small or too stained for regular wear and can only be donned when I working on something that may stain, rip, sully, or otherwise mar decent looking clothing. Most of my whites are no longer white, they are beige, almost jaundiced looking. I'd prescribe phototherapy for them if I thought it would help. However, I am afraid of that wondrous product: bleach. It seems I always get it every place I don't want it and wind up with my colors lighter and my whites brightly colored. Part of the problem is that my armpits sweat, a lot. A white shirt has yellow spots after one wearing. Eventually, colored shirts will have weirdly colored armpits due to the deodorant and the sweating. I'm such a lovely girl. :)

Good job on the laundry and bills. Check the mail in a week or two and you will have more than bills;). I, too, am having the need to rid myself of things, especially since I am moving soon. And bleach is also my enemy lately, I ruined a new skirt I was wearing when I was bleaching some whites, so it now has three spots, oops. I also get yellow pit stains, sometimes after one wearing. A tip, it is not the sweat that does it, it is the deodorant. Try a natural deodorant, that is what I am going to do because I am sick of ruining new shirts with pit stains, however I know you need patience to find the right one so you don't smell all the time.
