Yesterday was my birthday and I don't want to even think how old I am now so we won't go there. I got some wonderful cards, a necklace from my daughter and money. Money is kind of a do-it-yourself birthday present. I get it every year. I'm not complaining. I look forward to it. The only problem is, that I am pretty bad at spending money on myself. There are a lot of things I want and one thing I want most of all but won't buy for myself. I really want someone to come in and clean my house. Every year I promise myself I'll really do it this time and I never, ever do. There are a couple of barriers to my doing this. One is that I'd have to make the phone call. I still have that phobia-ish-thingy - I'm not sure what to call it. It's not that I am afraid to make phone calls, I don't get nervous or anything, I just put it off - for a very long time. I have procrastinated phone calls for almost a month before, getting up and writing it at the top of my list every morning and then not doing it. The second thing is that I'd feel that I had to pre-clean before the cleaners got here and I just don't know if I have the energy for that. I guess that's it. Only 2 reasons I don't buy myself what I want for my birthday.
Yes.
I know that I'm weird.
