There's a stranger in my house...

That's what happens to the computer when working like a dog kicks in.
The only computer time I 've had lately was to find out which song was playing on the CVS commercial. Ordinary Miracle by Sara Mclaughlin. It is BEAUtiful. Ballerinas are dressed! Cloggers are dressed! Cheerleaders are dressed! Chorus members are dressed! NOW...the rest of the world. All the other few hundred dancers in multiple costumes. Lots of work to do. I love it! It pays the bills. I'm going to acquaint myself with the stranger mentioned before. Ideas for Christmas?

chitty chitty bang bang

I've got new wheels!... and all the other things that come with a car payment. It's fun to drive if I don't think about the payment.

to work or not to work...

When you say working like a dog, what does that mean? My dog sleeps on the sofa til noon then moves to where I am, stretches a little then goes into the second napping phase. If someone drops by she musters up the energy for company, then falls into a heap after the visit. Where does the work part come in? When I work, well lets just say it doesn't involve napping. It involves work and a lot of it!

"Big Toe Blues"

Do you work for a living? Well we have lately hired men to do jobs that only need to work occasionally, I guess. In that whole process the furniture has been moved out of the room everyday this week. The first day the workmen were to come and work and didn't show up, I was moving the table back into the kitchen. I pulled it rapidly and the leg of the table facing me jammed my big toe so hard it popped! I then proceeded to DANCE! and SING! My daughter referred to it as the "Big Toe Blues". Speaking of blue.....well maybe it looks more black and purple. Yes it is broken and I've got drugs (Rx of course). Last night it was rivaling the Goodyear blimp in size. Shoes? not for awhile. Darn it exercise on hold again. Looks like I'll miss the next marathon as well. Anybody got a footstool?

what is it?

Did you ever have a day where you felt like you were forgetting something really important and can't think of it? I feel like my shoe is untied or something and I'm barefooted.

CHANGE

This post has pending for several days in my head. How to deal with change that you aren't really in favor of. Some change is good...like changing your underwear, changing your sheets, and changing your toothbrush. However the things in life that you get used to, when forced to change cause internal stress. We are faced with choices daily that force us to change. How do you get rid of that T-shirt that is full of holes and feels so comfy? How do you get rid of your favorite car that is not as dependable as it used to be? How do you go to church the same as last week when half of your friends are gone? I remember getting new and updated sewing equipment and resist using it because it was different than what I was used to. I find myself thinking and doing things to laugh off change until I can find a way to deal with it. Usually it isn't as bad as I thought it would be, that of course is after the adjustment period. They say change is good...but I say a big OUCH! So every time you change your underwear ..... well keep doing that.

just another day...

Have you ever called someone knowing you were to leave a message and identified yourself as your dog??? If that isn't bad enough, it was the dog groomer so she knows you represented yourself as your pet. What a way to start a Monday!
