Being bored is downright.....well, it's boring! Having some wanted time for relaxing or taking it easy is a lot different than having time to do something but there is nothing to do. Happily, the time is sometimes short and all things pick up again. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoy your work and time at work so much, that is such a positive attitude to go to any job with.
Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't that just a pain in the you know what! Yikes! I hate these kinds of surprises, don't you? "Darn, just leave me alone and I'll be fine but, no, I have to face this darn window thing! All I wanted to do was mind my own business, be good, and enjoy the summer the best I could, but no-o-o-o-o-o, now there has to be this window bill!" (I think that's what I hear you thinking...it's what I would be thinking.)
This was a rather amusing post, although I could sense a little frustration over those darn puzzle pieces...and yourself for not picking them up (or sifting them out) and putting them back with the puzzle in the first place. Oh, well...you can't do everything!
Nice pics, though...I love the kitty on the puzzle...very artsy, homey looking...I like it.
Just letting you know that I stopped in to read this although it is a little out-dated now. Hope all is smoothing out some for you and going ok.
Hey, what a great idea for a post! I loved it! You got me thinking about my memories at each place I've lived. You've got some neat memories there, no wonder you remember each place so well.
Absolutely not boring to me at all! And, love the pics! They're great! Of course, you make me wish I could get out to see these places for myself!
Gee, I sure do remember letting out my stories...that was hard enough. Then, when the feelings started coming out...that was the toughest. And, yes, I thought I was crazy...no, that's not entirely true because I BELIEVED I was crazy for feeling the feelings I felt...not just about "those others", but about myself and life around me. I was so complacent about so many things, so accepting of so many things, but so judgemental and sensitive about other things. Validation turned me around. Not quickly, but it was the turning point that I needed for taking control of my feelings, understanding them, and working through them so that I could reach better feelings and better control over the ones that still get "triggered" from time to time. You have done another great post here, touching on yet another component that lives in the world of the abused.
What? You're NOT having a baby? Ohhh, shucks! Well, in that case, I hope your sonogram results come back ok...let me know if they detect a beating heart in there somewhere, ok? And I don't mean your own heart!
Yep, I came back into mybloggers to start trying to catch up on all your posts, even though I've been reading them over at blogster. This is when I got excited...because you were well enough to leave the hospital.
Great question, I would have said towels, I now see that I am wrong, congrats to the two winners...and, shucks, I missed out on the prize, which of course, look absolutely yummy!
I'm sure you figured out something by now, but my mind is busying itself with coming up with ideas. Unfortunately, some of the ideas are rather rated X.
The bad nightmare was just that, a bad nightmare. But, here's the good part about having a bad nightmare...there were some pent up "things" there and the nightmare was the means to get you to release them. Once the tears flowed and the feelings were allowed to be let out, you started feeling better and realized that everything really is ok. From that point on, you had a wonderful day. Much happiness to you...to you, specifically, and to you and G and the kids and all you care about.
If someone is getting messages from somewhere, someone, etc. it might find it's way onto the sci-fi channel...mystical, I guess. This is why it is possible to see Highway to Heaven on sci-fi, although it hasn't been on there. (To those of no or a different faith, these types of shows are considered TRULY fiction with a twist of imagination, so that's why the connection to that network.) I've seen the show...in the past...and I thought it was ok.
Sounds a little familiar...we recently had to throw out our microwave, the one that came with Edie so it was more than 14 years old...but, no, it was not haunted. It was just dead. Here's where the story loses any familiarity...we didn't have to buy another one because, luckily, we had a spare one. That one came with me, so it too is over 14 years old, but it is working just fine. (We don't "cook" with a microwave because we just don't really believe in it, we're just not comfortable with it, if you know what I mean...we heat up cups of coffee, tea, bowls of soup, help speed along the thawing process if something won't be thawed in time, and maybe heat up a Lean Cuisine or some leftovers once in awhile. So, this oldie is fine for us.)
I'd love to have a huge TV. I don't complain about the two 27" ones we have...less electricity than the ones we'd love to have...and I can always watch the great big screen when I do my petsitting job.
I don't mean to sound "old fashioned", because I really am not. It's just that I can't help but think that this sort of movie never would have even been considered for teenage viewing by the library or anywhere. Can you imagine a movie that even mentions the Mile High Club (tsk tsk) and being found naked in a car, regardless of where it was (tsk tsk) being made readily available to teens? (I laugh because I remember "sneaking" Valley of the Dolls and Rosemary's Baby)
Anyway, as an adult now...no more looking back...I see where this might be a bit lame in a real moving story line, but entertaining and interesting enough to make for an ok viewing. Nothing heavy, just lightly relaxing.
