Organization

Now I am well and truly done with summer. I know there's only a week to go and I'll be looking back on these days wondering what the hell I could have been thinking but the Vortex has opened its maw once again in the middle of the house and has swallowed yet another necessity, this time the check book.

Of course, I could just blame myself for my inability to keep track of things and that is surely part of this current bad dynamic I've got going with the material world, but honestly, things do just keep vanishing and I can only assume that everything around me is taking a cue from my neighbors and is deciding to get out of town.

Black and White Doggie (the first) has not been recovered (but a stash of replacements has been hidden away for emergencies).

The keys that were disappeared remain gone

As are the good tweezers
the sun hat
the hair cutting scissors
the extra leash


And I suppose to some extent my sanity.

So while I find myself fretting about the fall schedule and wondering how school will be for Felix and fussing about work in those murky pre-dawn hours when Sebastian is most hungry, I can't say I'm dreading those days particularly.

It's limbo (no, no not the dance) that does me in.

I lost a bra last week! Now how is that possible?! My bras go from body to closet to hamper to washing machine. And nowhere else. So where is it? Probably hiding out with the three or four lost pillow cases, a heap of socks, and all a mountain of pens.
