Boring isn't bad...

I've had a very boring day, I suppose some would think. But to me it's been ok. I like quiet days. I like days all to myself. I seem to accomplish much more when I'm alone in the house. Today I made a big batch of candy to take to Oregon on Saturday... also wrapped all the Christmas presents we are taking. Defrosted the soup for dinner and added a few more veggies just for good measure... ooh and best of all I got to try out my new swiffer......... did the kitchen floor. But I was a bit disappointed because it didn't stay wet till I finished the whole floor. I thought one of the wet wipe thingies would be enough but it wasn't. Maybe I should have worked faster? Maybe my floor was just too dirty. maybe if I don't let it get so dirty it won't take so long to clean it and the wipey will stay wet till I'm done? Whatever... anyway it is much easier than dipping a big heavy hard to lift string mop into the sink... then trying to wring it out with my dumb non-working thumb. Ever notice how much you need your thumbs? Try opening a jar without your thumb... how about tying your shoes? Combing your hair? Shaving your legs? driving a car? Cutting some veggies? Yes we need our thumbs and mine have given out on me.

Soup for dinner... I love easy.
