It’s cold here this morning. Well, cold for us: 36 degrees. I know, some of you who live in the northern regions are snickering right now but for the
They're really good at doing nothing |
Fridays are the days each week when I do only what I want to
do. It’s kind of like my weekly sanity
day. I’m still in my jammies. I just might wear them all day. Makeup?
Not today. Do my hair? Might run a brush through it but I’m not
committing to anything. But since the world
hasn’t ended today, I guess I’m going to have to do laundry. It’s the one chore I do on Fridays. I have to keep The Husband in clean skivvies
– he gets very grumpy otherwise. Speaking
of The Husband, he was not elated when he came home last night to find that the unruly pile o’stuff had been replaced by two sweaters I’d blocked and laid out to dry,
utilizing the entire dining room table.
He obviously doesn’t appreciate how long it took me to get to said
blocking. It probably doesn’t help that
I make a point to snipe at him to not touch, move, set anything on, or to even
breathe on my works in progress. I can’t
help it; I’ve developed some sort of unexplainable radar that alerts me
whenever anything comes within 3 feet of my creations. It’s involuntary. Really, it is.
I will work toward getting my daughter’s
gift done – I’m at around 65% and sweater number 6 is coming along nicely. I should have it done later this
evening. Then if this handful of buttons
on my desk would manage to sew themselves onto their respective garments, I’d
be completely ecstatic. Okay, it won’t
happen but wouldn’t it be great if it did?
I can dream…
When I started reading your post I thought you were saying it was minus 36 and I was thinking to myself, yes, that's a little on the chilly side. Then when I realized you meant plus 36 I had a good laugh. :-)
ReplyDeleteI have become such a cold weather wimp!! I don't know if I would survive if I had to move back up north! :D
DeleteA sanity day is a brilliant idea. I wish I had the opportunity to indulge in the same. I'm going to aim for that.
ReplyDeleteI haven't gotten caught-up with my blog reading to see whether you finished your daughter's sweater, but I'm hoping so!
I hope you find a way for a regular sanity day soon! My only complaint is that they are always too short!
