I've been working in the Brown Eyed Man's sweatshop for about three weeks. Every night when I get home, I eat supper (the evening meal) and head upstairs. I usually work up there until about 9 and then come down and go to bed.
Monday night I finished his most recent order of shotgun cleaning rod bags and was thrilled to be able to do something else with my time. I wandered through the yard and pulled some weeds. I planted some hops that I'm hoping will grow up and over Clover's kennel to provide some shade this summer. I've tried clematis. It died. I tried a climbing rose and it never climbed anywhere. It just sat there. It was a sitting rose. Yesterday I re-planted it in the front yard, hoping it will climb up one of the pillars out there.
So, I got that done. I perused my flower beds trying to determine whether some of the things growing in there were weeds or something I planted last year. Sometimes you have to wait and see. It usually turns out to be a weed.
I did some other little crafty thing I had been putting off and then...nothing. I had nothing to do. I kept finding myself drifting toward the stairs like I might want to go get ahead a little bit on some bags, but for Pete's sake! I had a break! I'd been dying for a break. I read the magazine that comes with your AAA membership. That was riveting.
Brown Eyed Man offered to go for a walk with me and that NEVER happens so I took him up on it. All in all it was nice-ish, but I need to be doing something. I actually have another sewing project I would like to start tonight so I think I'm in good shape there. Plus there is always a Jillian Michaels is trying to kill you video I could do.
Are you able to just sit? I'm terrible at it, but I want to get better.
