ME

Not many of you will be interested in reading this but it is all I could think of to post until I get another project completed.

I LOVE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING.
   Making quilts out of scraps others have thrown away.
   BB building a chicken house for me from out of date election signs.
   I made a blouse not too long ago from scraps.  Enough to get the body as recommended but had to make  
       the sleeves going in two complete different directions from each other and the blouse.  I like it.
   Getting dinner w/out running to the store when I don't have all ingredients called for and substituting some-
       on hand.  I have come up with new and very good recipes.

I SELDOM EVER SIT WITH MY HANDS FOLDED.
   I continually move to different task depending on my energy level.  I save knitting and crocheting for when
         I don't have enough energy to move the body.

I HAVE COME TO DESPISE TV
   Too many commercials, not anything much I am interested in but...I am watching an old TV series that I 
      didn't know existed when it was on TV.  It is called 'Boston Legal'.  Totally delightful.  I do sit with my
      hands folded while watching that.  At night in my desert, when the lights are on many bugs, especially
      tiny ones seem to be able to find their way into the house.  I hate watching TV in the dark.

MY HOUSE IS SELDOM COMPANY READY SO...
    every time I go from one room to another I pick up something on the way that needs to go my direction.

I ENJOY DOING LAUNDRY
   I have had a clothes line ever since I was married in 1959 and use it.

I ENJOY GROCERY SHOPPING

I...L-O-V-E..TO COOK.
   Sometimes when doing other things I get in the mood to cook something and have to decide what it will be

I HATE TO CLEAN MY KITCHEN
   And many times it looks like it
   On our honeymoon (in Yosemite) my husband bought me a plaque which still hangs in my kitchen.  I am
    no good at memorizing anything but I know this little verse.
            THANK GOD FOR DIRTY DISHES, THEY HAVE A TALE TO TELL
            WHILE OTHERS MY GO HUNGRY, WE'RE EATING VERY WELL.
             WITH HEALTH AND HOME AND HAPPINESS, I SHOULDN'T WANT TO FUSS,
             BY THE STACK OF EVIDENCE, GOD'S BEEN VERY GOOD TO US.

I TURN OFF THE AC/HEATER AT NIGHT ALL YEAR AROUND
   I figure if I have to pull up the covers (in the Summer) I am wasting energy and I can pull on enough
   covers in the Winter that I don't need the heat.

I LOVE THE LORD WITH ALL MY MIND, HEART AND SOUL
    I hope.                         I have never been put to the test.

I WOULD RATHER STAY HOME THAN GO OUT.

I NEVER USE THE WORD BORED
   I have way too much to do here at home that I enjoy.  If I get TIRED of one thing I just move on to
   something else.

NOW. ENOUGH ABOUT ME RIGHT NOW, TELL ME ABOUT YOU.

I liked hearing more about you, Connie.
I'm like you, not much of a tv watcher anymore. I never did watch Boston Legal, but I believe that was one my mother-in-law loved to watch too.
I do enjoy watching Biggest Loser now and again, at least the 2nd half (the weigh-in) that way I don't have to watch all the 'drama' that's in the first part.

I don't know of anyone who likes to clean the kitchen! That poem was cute.
God bless!
