cleaning house

The Anchoress posted today about cleaning house, among other things and this part of her post really spoke to me:

There are a lot of people in my house right now – several people home from college who either grew up here or are spending the summer, Buster and his large, noisy, pals. But today everyone is out and will be for a while, so I’m going to use the time for a bit of intensive housecleaning of the both literal and metaphorical sort, because I have a lot to think about, and lately it seems like none of us really get to think. Something is always blaring at us and we seem to be living in incessant states of reaction.

I feel that way alot. Sometimes peace just isn’t out there…even when I put my earplugs in.

On another note, Dreamy Jim’s mother, Anne, passed away. She was a lovely woman. We met in Callahan’s and I think she raised a fine son. I grieve with DJ.
