I am lazy.

I am having a hard time adjusting to my current work situation. I left my gainful employment because of my  boss. He finally made it so I couldn't be there one more second. Now I am working part time at the hotel I have worked for for almost five years. I don't mind working here or even that its part time. I mind that its the over night shift. Yes, its what I asked for. I am a far better auditor than I ever have been desk person. But when you go from working the occasional third shift to two every week its hard on the body. And my brain. It is actually a lot easier to work full time over nights than it is to work them sporadically. .

Since I knew I  would have ample free time on my hands this summer I decided I would cook and clean at home. That isn't going so well. First off cleaning is boring. And second Shawn Carr keeps getting in my way. I don't like to clean when others are around. We live in such a tiny house that trying to clean, not step on Travis or Penny, and not scaring the bejesus out of the birds is hard enough not to mention adding an extra person who isn't doing anything. That makes me not want to clean even more. I also hate to cook. Actually that's a lie. I don't mind cooking its the cleaning up after the cooking that bothers me. I am a lazy person I don't want to do anything. Plus its not amazingly hot out and I don't grill and baking just makes it more miserable.

This week I have done nothing but hang out and swim in the icicles. Again that's a lie. I went to Walmart almost every day this week and I took Penny for a walk. She jumped in the lake and scared some fishies away and trampled on some baby toads. Other than that I have done nothing. So, yesterday afternoon when I got up I decided when Mum came and collected Shawn, Colleen was gone, and Shawn was sleeping I would clean. I cleaned for hours and hours. Sadly the house looks no cleaner than when I started. I figured I would clean off Mum's dresser. God does she have a boatload of shit. I collected all of her sewing and knitting stuff some I shoved in the cabinet the rest I shoved in a basket and left on her desk. All of the stuff from her Nana's house I put neatly into boxes and put them in the corner where no pets could get them. I stuffed the vacuum away. Collected the coins and pens. Threw away more crap than can be imagined. And left the dust. Well  most of it. I cleaned the bathroom too. I ran out of cleaning products so its not as clean as I would like it to be but its clean none the less. Then I washed the dishes and even put some of them  away. But I left the bowl of hamburger fat on the counter. I really am not so sure what to do with that. I made macaroni and cheese and cheeseburgers for  lunch and since I am too lazy to learn how to grill I baked them. I am also to lazy to cook them in a pan, then you have to watch them and not burn the house down, blah, blah,blah. If you bake them you  only need to flip them over once and its so easy. But you get extra icky grease. Since I know better than to put it down the drain I poured it into a little glass bowl so it would become more solid than liquid so I could throw it away. Yeah, I forgot. BUT I did wash all of my other dishes and clean up the icky water from the broken sink that goes everywhere.

Now I am at work thinking of all of the things I could have done and didn't. Theres always Monday. Yeah, I know its only Friday but I am sleeping all day and working all night, then I am having the lamest cookout ever on Saturday, and work on Sunday. So that leaves no time for cleaning until Monday. Just enough time for me to make lots of lists and throw them away.
