The universe knows....

Maybe I should write in code...it seems like the universe is spying on me.

Or at least, as I ask the universe what it needs to tell me on a daily basis, it is freaking me out when it's spot on.

Today I am divine focus.

Today is the day we had planned to start tackling the garage.

Coincidence? Apparently not.

With divine focus, I am to focus on the task at hand, and persevere. I have been wanting to get the garage sorted out for almost 2 years now. When we first moved in, everything we didn't have a place for went in the garage. We were here for 8 months, parking one car in the driveway. and one car in the overflow parking for our condo complex.

Last May/June Andy managed to get the garage sorted, in that he bought lots of bins, and put everything into bins, and stacked the bins on either side of the garage. Only one car fits in there comfortably and still allows the driver to open the door and get out.

Today, we went through 12 boxes. Now we have 4 boxes that are keep, and 4 that are designated for garage sale. The rest was garbage. I was ruthless in getting rid of stuff. A lot of it is easy though if you think "I forgot we even owned this, and it has been sitting in the garage for 2 years without us ever thinking of it...". Our townhouse complex has a big joint garage sale every year. This year I will be prepared.

I'm surprised that the afternoon went so well. We worked for 4 hours straight. For us, we usually get side tracked, or start arguing, or get caught up in some minute aspect and lose sight of the bigger picture. This afternoon, we moved efficiently, respectfully, and determinedly through the boxes. And I am quite pleased with the results. It doesn't look much different right now, because the boxes we are going to keep are still in the garage until we can systematically organize what is in them, and the boxes for the garage sale are still in there until the garage sale, but we know which is which, and we know that these boxes will disappear from the garage over the next few weeks.

The universe knew I needed to be reminded to focus.

Shhhh....it's listening.
