I am Home and Bored, though I have a To do list. So here I am doing the TTT that I have seen a few of my friends do.
1. Its the third week of school for the kids... I actually like the quiet house and the fact that it stays clean, until they come home.
2. I went to the volunteer orientation at the kid's school today, I dont have anyone's names attached to their faces. Had a mug shot taken, guess now I am on the "wanted" list.
3. My husband's got a new Concubine(his new laptop). So for the past week, he is Absently Present.
4. The sun is shining, and my plants are huffing/puffing, Its around 90 degrees F(around 30 C). Should water them as soon as the deck gets some shade.
5. I should weed the lawn, Crab Grass has taken over our lawn. Got some bulbs yesterday, have to find a place for them.
6. I am annoyed at the backyard squirrel family that digs up the soil in my planters..GRRRRRR.
7.The African voilets have bloomed for the 4th time since spring, I must be doing something right, now if I could just figure out what it is.
8. I hate reading the news, absolutely nothing on it can make me smile. Money market is down, housing is down, unemployment is rising, not one day goes without news of some criminal activity somewhere in the city. To top it all, Rice imports from India are down, so I have to settle for jasmine rice from Thailand(arent I the ingrate? at least I can buy rice).
9. I havent written anything that I can say is "good work" in about a month, guess my brain has died. Been very confused, lost in dreamworld or overwhelmed with paper... Did I tell you I am a paper magnet. Everything thats on post its and loose sheets somehow finds me for home.
10. My Friend had her second child, a girl, I started an afghan for the baby and now I feel like by the time I finish, the baby will be too old for it....Genie, where are you, my love?

LOL....I feel like my brain has died right now too. I'm blaming the dog days of Summer. But I just did this TTT also for the first time.
Oh and I am so annoyed at the gophers who are desecrating my backyard.
Don't feel alone .... many of us are experiencing the same blank feeling. The energies are shifting... our consciousness is shifting... we are all feeling tired, confused, and have wierd sleep patterns... Go with it...
Hey, sis..your brain is in its place, alive and well..and its ok to have a pause from producing great writings..I have no doubts you will write again soon! Just wait for the muse to visit you!
Sending my love..

Have a look at the articles in this now and then, they're not just bad news but intelligent discussions. Some of the best ones can be read online by non-subscribers.
