If You Can't Say Anything Nice....

 
I can't believe its been a whole week since my last post. Man, time is really flying.

My living situation has turned me from a grouch to a real bitch and there's nothing I can do about it because the consequences would result in homelessness. Not mine, but others. Its a no-win situation all the way around. If I did throw the guests out I would have to live with enormous guilt. Can't do it. I have to turn in my Total Bitch badge 'cause thats too extreme for me.

Ya do what ya have to do... and now I've got to go do dishes. Apparently no one else gets the thrill that I do when cleaning.

So sorry to hear you are having such a bad time of it.

My those strawberries look good, are they for me?

Any distant relative you could escape and visit for a couple of weeks?

Very few people I know feel the thrill of the vacuum and the feel of dish water...we are special, CC. HaHaHa I agree with you. We do what we have to do....guess that's what we call life in the real world.

I do hope things get better real soon!

Oh, dear. Maybe they'll go visit some friends for a few days. Sounds like you could use a break and some help. Many hands make for quick work. Your hands should be pointing out dust bunnies and doing nothing more.

ha, no one else gets that thrills. I know absolutely what you mean. Homelessness, nope not an option for us mama's...it's too painful to think about the little ones being put through that. It's all good and works out in the end, some how...

Hey Carrie... how you doin'? It has been a long time. Good to see you again.

Just think of all that Karmic credit you are earning. You are a good person. Nobody can see their kids on the street, especially when they have kids too. You'll have to devise a way to create some 'me' time and space. I find the library is a great escape place. It's quiet and either warm or cool depending on the season and there's plenty to keep you occupied and interested. They even have computers for you to use. And you can stay as long as you like.

CC~ If you get a free minute and a corner to draw I have a new August Art Challenge....check out my Art Blog and see if you would like to give a rendering.

Hope your life has settled down a bit.

So, now I keep checking back and you don't write anything new LOL
Today I got the idea of saving today in a bottle. It's SO beautiful out, perfect. Sunny, dry, big blue sky and huge clouds.LIke that song "Time in a Bottle". After I thought that I heard an old dead tree creaking in the wind and thought maybe I shouldn't stand here it might blow down.
So, I started taking pictures of bottles, showing the "day" through them, in the windows from inside the house. Couldn't find any good bottles, only like 2 ltr soda bottle with the label off. Haven't3done anything else with them yet.
I don't have much different to take pictures of,so have to look for something different to create.
