Taking a break

How are you spending your Sunday?

Hubby and I pulled the stove and refrigerator out and are cleaning the wall, floor, etc… We found several pens, about 87 cents in change, a cigar (still in the wrapper), two pepper shakers, and several cat toys.

He’s out getting more scrubby things, and I’m sneaking a break.

Wish someone would bottle elbow grease.

I think we should just sell the house, now.

Trying to download Microsoft updates to my long neglected home PC. I decided that 37 days into 2000 - I should download the essential upgrades. Getting a speed of 44k.

Just another giddy social whirl here…I have laundry going in the washer and dryer, and am cooking for the week. Lemon-dill rice is in the oven, cajun shrimp marinating and some chicken breasts w/ 'shrooms, sherry, etc. done and frozen in packets.

Faced with a choice between chasing dust bunnies or cleaning up the 'puter, I did the full, draconian Clean Sweep thing. Have installed FREEON+ that nukes the AOL spam and dumping off line. Love it…

Just another glamorous day in the fast lane.

Well, I spent a couple of hours rearranging the garage - now all I have to do is unpack a couple of boxes & it’s clean!


…in a state so nonintuitive it can only be called weird…

I actually organized and filed all the stuff in my desk drawers… how am I ever gonna find stuff now!


I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!

I cleaned my kitchen (finally!). I should be embarassed to say this but I didn’t have any clean glasses. All I had were those little bitty ones that no one ever really uses. Swept and mopped the floors, dusted the living room, cleaned the litter box, and after all that exhausting (ha!) work, I took a long nap. Gosh that was nice!!

Now I’ve returned to my regularly scheduled slug activities.


“Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be.”

I went grocery shopping and stopped at the bookstore this morning.
Now I’m baby-sitting my nephew while his mom goes to a play. He’s currently pummeling my sister with a pillow in the living room and hallway, while I hide in my bedroom.

Wow, you people are productive!

I was a slug all afternoon and watched TV for a change. There were not one but two worthwhile movies on, so I watched 'em. Star Wars and The Princess Bride.

An afternoon well wasted!


Eat right, exercise daily, live clean, die anyway.

Cooked breaky for a friend, moped around, talked to a close friend on the phone, ran an errand and have been busily trying to re arrange my schedule for this week so that I can have supper at TVeblen’s place every night this week :slight_smile:


We are, each of us angels with only one wing,and we can only fly by embracing one another

Got a lot of loose papers in the office squared away. Went to Albertson’s with Mr. Rilch and got stuff for tonight’s dinner and this week’s lunches. Inflated my post count!


Remember, I’m pulling for you; we’re all in this together.

You may or may not know, but I work out of my home as a transcriptionist. Last night, my Dictaphone went to the great office supply heaven in the sky. Today, I had to drive out to the office to pick up a new phone. Took two and a half hours, round trip, and I only spent five minutes of that in the office. Of course, it is Sunday. It would probably take me two hours each way Monday through Friday. You wouldn’t believe how much money I save every year on gasoline because I’m no longer doing the drive every day.

I also cleaned both of the kids’ bedrooms, which were both disaster areas, and did some laundry. The dishes are still piled up in the sink, but I think it can wait until tomorrow.

Church first thing, then over to a friend’s for an open house (they had had their baby blessed today), all before noon, then a good nap. I haven’t even done the dishes. A very lazy day but I’m having trouble feeling bad about it!

I’m a vegetarian once removed. I only eat meat from animals that are vegetarians.

Friday was my nephew’s first birthday. My brother & his wife had a party for him today. All kinds o’ family there. It was fun. Cake, ice cream, two party subs, everyone taking the requisite first-birthday-frosting-face-photos of the birthday boy. That’s how I spent my day!


Changing my sig, because Wally said to, and I really like Wally, and I’ll do anything he says, anytime he says to.

Hmm, church (I sing in choir), laundry, cleaning hamster cages, laundry, read the newspaper, laundry, – then the fun part, went and bought new family room furniture! A couch, loveseat, and recliner. It’ll be delivered the day after St. Patrick’s Day, which gives me a few weeks to dispose of the old stuff and maybe find a new rug for in there. Then home for more laundry, some baking, and here to TSD!

P.S. Did I mention laundry?

Well, I WAS cleaning and hanging out online until the bastards called me in to work! Now I’m…well…hanging out online…

Update: I did two loads of dishes while the rugrat: (1)watched Patch Adams (kinda–it was on, but no actual watching was done), (2)read comics and (3)worked on a puzzle with my sister. We also all had ice cream. Now he’s getting ready for bed. Afterwards, he wishes to read my *Far Side{/i] cartoon-a-day calendar.

Work, work, work.

I’ll get you, Ovid.

When I grow up, I want to be the Minister of Silly Walks.

I spent a couple of hours looking all over town (in vein) for an ink cartridge for my printer, then went home, made dinner, washed the dishes, watched WWTBAM, now chatting with you fine folks and listening to Tori Amos.

Yesterday was better–finally found a wedding gown. :smiley:
