It does me, too!! That's why I quite often do more or less nothing on the days when there are no plans. It enables me to catch my breath as it were. I decided to come home this evening to give myself more time tomorrow morning to get my head straight before whizzing off to the new Spanish class. (I'm actually a bit apprehensive about this as I suspect it's right at the top edge of my knowledge - or beyond and i hate being the dunce of the class, but it will probably stretch me and make me work harder!!) Glad you liked the Mill and shop - it was magic. I wish I could have transported all my friends (from both sides of the puddle) there to join me.I am absolutely certain Tawneypup would love it too.If I had been younger I would seriously have considered buying a piece of the action as they are retiring and selling it to a group of people who want to keep it going. Info on yesterdays Beltane when I have time to write it. Hugs.
Alas, it's hard for me to create a day when there isn't something that desperately needs doing. I know that's not going to last forever, but I sure do miss having time to just have fun :-(
I think you'll surprise yourself in the new Spanish class - you probably have a bit of an advantage over many of the other students, because of having sought out different ways to expose yourself to the language.
Wouldn't that be great - you, me, anarchist_nomad and cheshcat, tawneypup, miss_amaranth, your Seniorsis, your sweetie, and a whole bunch of other transatlantic oddballs, taking over the tea room :-D
If only Nomad would hurry up with that matter transporter!!! Other than that we need a new and brilliant idea for making loads of sheckels then we could afford to get together. Meanwhile the nearest I am getting to it all is house sitting for daughter for most of June while she and the crowd jaunt off to America. (The miserable lot wont squeeze me into a suitcase as they need someone to feed the cats
( ... )
I barely even bother with "housekeeping"-type chores, because there's still so much furniture-assembling and rearranging and putting-away and dear-gods-where-are-all-the-wooden-spoons? and shopping-for-replacements. (I have hardly any things that need ironing, I don't really have a yard any more, and the dust bunnies and I have an Agreement.) But even before the storm, I was rather short on just having fun, between my husband's erratic and often onerous work hours, chronic lack of funds, and my various medical misadventures. The most recent fun-thing we did was seeing "The Hobbit". But our 40th anniversary is coming up in June, and my husband thinks we really ought to do something a bit more celebratory than going to a burger place for dinner. (He still hasn't figured out what yet, though.) Good thing I've managed to learn, over the years, how to experience even the most modest bit of enjoyment as an adventure!
