I'm lacking motivation today, so I've not done nearly as much as I intended...I'm often like that after a bad night with arthritis...tired and lackadaisical :-D

Night before last I made a list of 'things' to do, and was surprised really that I had got so many of them done, I have added more on to the bottom for today...though the rain is not being helpful in getting some of them done :-|

It is a general thread Ann, although I said that it has been mentioned that some people are on here 24/7 that is a comment that has been made by many different people over the years, here and elsewhere ( and before the internet I expect it was said to people watching telly a lot lol..or reading, or doing crafts....

I've said it myself, TO myself on numerous occasions...along the lines of "get off and do something constructive!" but then in ref to my mum's friend asking on the phone what I had 'been up to in the last few days' and my response "nothing really" , I thought about all the things I HAD done, and though they are small things which are not very newsworthy they all add up.

I thought this was a general thread but I get the impression that it is not now. (reference to stalkers etc). why can't we just have a nice fun thread without referring to things that have nothing to do with the majority of people on here? Please!

Which probably all boils down to the facts that we each, in our own way fill our day with tasks that are at the time, important to us.

and regardless of what others might think.





its OUR day and we do what we need to do...........

You're even busier now Sue, project managing renovations...


Right now, Dinner is cooking, I have about 10 mins whilst watching Emmerdale..to have a quick smoke and post on here....

After dinner, hygeine duties, washing up, finish a bracelet I'm making,,packing an order...doing my books (yes I deal with tax returns and insurances), and uploading new stuff to the British site....and promoting later this evening to a USA/Worldwide site.

No, I have no life...all the time in the world to sit and just have a go at people on GR...the one site I spend the least amount of time on...

Oh and by the way, we will be heavily involved in the local amputee charity later, but the chairman has recently passed away so it's all up in the air until the AGM at the end of the year...yep, no life, totally uncaring, too much time on my hands, to obsessed with people on here....now if you'll. excuse me, me spuds are cooked....and is that the police at the door? Oh no...it's the cat

I am a sad old dear who is stuck indoors unless OH is home to take me out. Laptop is switched on as soon as I get up. I open my usual windows to check email, messages, skype, GR, FB, Ancestry and google.

I rely on the internet to keep in touch with family all over the world.

I spend hours on all of the above, transferring info onto spreadsheets and record cards.

Draft designs onto graph paper by hand then input them to whichever programme they belong to.

My phone alerts me to messages if I am doing dreaded stuff like cleaning, washing and cooking. I am on the phone a lot...lolol

My life and I live it the way I choose to and it's nobody's business but mine.



:-D :-D :-D :-D
