Thinking !
Some thoughts and wondering's. Just wondering about this and that not really anything in particular, maybe it's the hot weather we are experiencing today. After all we have been quite spoiled with the cool temperatures and rain. It just made everything so pleasant. Right now I am tired of cooking, tired of sweeping, tired of dusting just tired of any so called work around the house. You know when Jim worked, (not that he doesn't work now but he doesn't have a work schedule like he did so he is home a lot) , he went off to work in the morning and I would do my exercises and go through my routine of cleaning the house. The kids would be in school and I could have everything cleaned in an hour and the laundry going. It was very satisfying. Now I have no routine for cleaning, in fact I have to push myself to sweep. To be honest that is for my little Grandson, I mean I do not want him to pull out a dust bunny from under the table or get his hands dirty running it across the top of the table. See what I mean. I swear living in the country is so dusty. Hey that is why I call my house the Dusty Cottage. It Is ! The real name of my home is "Arcanes Portus Aveo" I even have a couple sites named that. I made a mistake when I was filling out the form and spelled Portus wrong. I spelled it Portis and didn't notice it until I was all done. I just left it and figured, oh well. I took some time to name my house. You see, years ago and very good friend of mine, who I worked with was giving away some books. Well I never turned down books and one of them was a latin dictionary that had belonged to her husband in 1943, anyway that was the date he had written in the front of it. I love things like that and scoured through every page and found the meaning of the words and therefore named my house. Arcanes means secret or hidden, Portus means haven or home and Aveo means happiness and good health. So there you go A Secret or Hidden Home or Haven with Happiness and Good Health. Now I ask you what could be better then that ! Now getting back to my thoughts and wondering's I have to also admit exercising is laughable. It's funny because for years I did exercising. I loved it. My daughter thought I was crazy she was like my Mom and never wanted to do any. Well now I know what they were talking about. I do not want to do anything. I swear I have tried all kinds of things to get me motivated.....nothing. I have bought a mini trampoline as I use to do that years ago. No way will I do that. I ask you who wants to stand and bounce up and down besides Jim is home I am not going to do that in front of him. That would not be a pretty site. It is now outside by the barbecue leaning against the house. Then I bought a weighted hula hoop. I do like to do this. I still can and it is fun. I can even see how it could help trim your waist. Do I do it ? NO, I do not. Who wants to. My house is too small to do it inside and when I go out in the yard I freak my cat, Elviria out and she goes flying around the yard. So here I am with my thoughts and wondering's. Tootles
