TODAY IS GOING TO BE A PROACTIVE day when I sort myself out. Apart from about an hour surfing quite randomly through nextblognextblogs, I've been striving to be practical. And domesticated. And clean and tidy. Eg chucked out all old rubbish. Hoovered carpet. (That has to do with Electrolux/Dyson type of Hoover. Not J Edgar.) Going through little lists of things I have to do.
Have to keep myself busy.
Oh how I hate hoovering! Yes, I need to do the same here at the cottage. The floors are dusty.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I finally listed those six strange facts about myself.
Thanks I just saw them and was commenting on them and asking you about your oddly bending ears. About literally one minute ago ...!
ReplyDeleteYou stopped my blog by "next blogging" and invited me to visit yours . . . so I did. It took me a moment to realize what you meant by Hoovering.
ReplyDeleteI will come back - right now it is time to put more wood on the fire. Snowing here.
i've got to do a little hoovering myself today after work. my kids occassionally dog sit and the hair gets everywhere. glad you're perking up...keep at it.
ReplyDeleteSnowing? We haven't had snow (I mean proper snow that settles at least all day) maybe for a decade or more. Of course the odd bit of snow HAS fallen and made everyone's gardens go white all morning. But usually by mid afternoon it's mostly gone. We've had nothing at all like that this year. I remember about 15 years ago we had a genuine cold snap, I was riding a bike over basically a sheet of ice. But we don't get cold weather like that anymore.
ReplyDeleteIn the 1500s, 1600s people used (aparently) to go ice skating on the (London River) Thames every winter. It was a traditional thing. I've seen paintings of it.
But now with this global warming jazz, it just doesn't happen.
