Empty yourself out...

so you can fill yourself up again.  Lately, I have been working on cleaning up little messes around here.  What always comes hand and hand with that is cleaning up my own personal messes.  I am not sure which one is easier.  What I am sure of is that I always feel better when I have made some kind of inroads.  The same thing does not always work, so I have to be creative. Sometimes, I make some kind of a game of it, with, of course, a reward.  Many times, the reward ends up being just the act of getting something accomplished.  Sometimes, it ends up being ice cream. :)  It always ends up being a win-win situation!
