Fussing and cleaning

  • Today marks the first day in my personal news blackout. Will reconsider on Easter, but not before.
  • Aggravated at President who reminds me of folks I've known who bluster around, talking incessantly so as to avoid appearing anymore ignorant that previously believed. It's not working.
  • Want to take that sidekick of the President's who keeps going on about a world currency out behind the woodshed. Not ready to hear about tattoos on folks' foreheads or hands either. Seems one thing leads to another, least in my thinking.
  • Time to change subject in this post, so....
  • Ready to replant a couple of things a sweet neighbor gave me...small schefflera and jade.
  • One of the African violets she gave me awhile back is about to bloom. A first time for me.
  • Time to clear out the flower beds too. But not today.
  • Going to spend time with this crocheting, later on. Have the chain stitch down, must work on what comes next.
  • Will make Poorman's Meal for tonight's dinner, courtesy of Clara's Depression-era videos. Love these. (thanks to Patricia for this link awhile back!)
  • Now off to do what damage I can....we're cleaning today. With the rain we've had, the house is depressed and wanting to be fussed over.
  • My mental state rises up several notches when the house is really clean. I'm not talking tidy, but CLEAN. It's time. :)
