.....I'll find something no doubt.
Right then.....what to say.....???
Ok. As is our want we arise (in a floating kind of way) from our bed at about 7am to 7.30am each morning. I guess we have a routine as would most couples in the morning. Making sure we don't get in each other's way. And me, perpetually going around picking things up, moving them, placing them back where I think they ought to go.
Do it now rather than later I say - rather loudly and, by the umpteenth time, very crossly! Naturally I am the one who procrastinates far more often with far more serious results in our everyday life - but I always conviently forget 'those' times.
It's such a relief, sometimes when I can wave goodbye (must be three waves no less!) and have this place to myself.
I'm practising me habits - such as: make it a habit to look at me emails first thing in the morning. Although if I do do that I find it's 12 noon before you can shake a feather duster. So now I try to 'do' the hand-washing of clothes first thing - even before I drink a cup of tea. That's another habit I'm practising - drink a cup of water before I get into the tea. At first that was - ergh! But now I rather like the water. I guess it took three whole weeks before I got used to the water idea.
And in fact it seems to me I have to do something religiously for three weeks in a row, day in and day out, before the new habit starts to sink in.
Another habit I'm developing is - go to the shops and but some food to eat. Of all the activities on the planet, I find, 'shopping for something to eat' the MOST BORING. I've even taken to strolling into the Marks and Sparks food section and buying food from them just to make the whole activity more interesting. Cos, generally, on principle, I dislike paying M&S prices. My principle being.......... mmmmmm?............'ere! I dunno what me principles are on the matter. Don't think I have any. Deary me. Typical. Made a palaver over nothing.
Anyway - before you know it, it's 3pm. I'm always shocked and horrified to find the day has gone. Somehow it all seems as if it was frittered away on chores which might be useful in the long run, (for instance - resulting in clean underwear) but don't actually make my heart beat any faster with excitement - if you get my drift.
I'm a one for trying to dream up NEW and EXCITING adventures. They never happen of course. There's always a reason, a good reason, (usually connected with money or time or my aching bones) why we ain't going to THAT! Still I continue to try my best - dreaming.
Course I have 'low-level-don't expect-much kind of dreams. They are all a bit 'matter of fact' dreams or goals. Can't be stepping outside me box now can I? Might find meself up a creek without the paddle.
Sometimes, if I'm not very careful, I BEGIN TO QUESTION!
Tch! Tch! Not so good to do that. I know me answers and it don't matter which way up or down I look at life there is the bottom line thing (which is me own personal reflection - and isn't so different from most other peoples thoughts on the matter). Can't say I'm that happy with me answer - but what you gonna do.
For gawds sake! This all sounds a bit moany moany. Tisn't. I is very happy by and large.
Ooooh! I've gone right off philosophising over the past two years.
Well then - I'm off to smell the coffee.

As you touch upon the subject of food, I thought I might mention that I just came across a recipe for cheese scones posted by Wifey here - http://www.thekiwiholiday.com/recipe/cheese-scones. Was it you?
I'm very happy to know that you're very happy by and large - long may that continue to be so.
