PURGING

Well, yesterday I took two bags of clothes to the Goodwill box. Mainly clothes that are too big now - which is a good feeling. So this purging made me think of purging as a life style.

Moving helps a person to purge - I have this urge to purge some of my belongings, but I'm not moving for a while. My sister and I have a ridiculous amount of Christmas decorations. Not sure why - but I think it is because my mother does. She decorates the whole house - even the bathroom.

I have also been in a relationship that has come to a purge or not purge stage. We have gotten to a fork in the road - do we purge what we have or try to work on it?? He's fun and a lot like me. But as far as relationships go, we view them differently. Those that know me, know that I am pretty laid back - go with the flow kind of girl. He is about being a "couple" and doing what he believes is what couples should do. I am not a believer in establised rules for dating - everyone is different. Also, I am the type of person who kind of needs someone to tell me directly what they want, need, etc.... I am not a mind reader after all. I would love to be, but unfortunately am not. The other issue is that he believes that a boyfriend/girlfriend should do things that they think they other wants them to do even if that person is not up to it. I completely disagree with that. If I'm tired or not interested in something I think I should be able to say so. None of these unspoken expectations and rules. Why is it easy to make friends with people but difficult to make a relationship work when really all it is (or should be) is a glorified friendship. AUGH!!!!

Anyways - that was my thought for the day - purging. Now if only I could purge that thai food I had for dinner, life would be better.

17 days until KEY WEST with Metro Ho, Dick In The Eye and Maria.!!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!
