I've slipped into a completely different mind-set.


My house does not have clutter.

 It has.... character!  :)

    fishducky; I'd like to see that :)

    Margaret-whiteangel; I thought it was a brilliant move, a brand new look at things.

    Elephant's Child; I like character filled houses, there's so much to see.

    Lee; if you do phone them let me know so I can run the vacuum around, maybe a mop too.

    A good mind-set. I've always been a weird housekeeper,
    caring more about the outdoors.

    Yep; attitude is everything. Our house has character out the wazoo. And I'm not getting fat, either... I'm getting fluffy.

    Haha...everything can be justified with the right attitude.

    Belva; I like the outdoors well enough, but I like my indoors to be comfortable and if that means vacuuming once a year, then that's what I have to do.

    Susan; I'm not fat either, I'm comfortably huggable.

    Cheryl; sometimes finding the right attitude takes a while, but we get there in the end.

    My work room out here has so much character you almost get lost in it. There is a sign on the sliding door that says DISASTER AREA as a warning to anyone entering here.

Words for Wednesday

Image
  The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1.conviviality  2.adoration  3.willpower   4.mellow  5.gentle  6.guitar Have fun, don't use all the words if you can't,there's no pressure here. My story will appear on this blog on Friday as always, unless I can't write one... edit: Charlotte's colour of the month is Beauty Berry Purple.

Sunday Selections #754

 Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one.  Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Brother R came to visit and brought me some old paperwork belonging to my dad, who has been dead for 25 and a half years now.  They'd been stored in a container with moth balls and were quite stinky so I pegged them out on the clothes rack in the back porch three days later, most are now inside, but the heavier items such as dad's passports are still smelly so they are still out there. I now have the original copy of his natu...
