Today is Sunday and it’s raining. Instead of being frustrated about all the things I can’t do outside, I will turn my attention to indoor projects. Sounds good doesn’t it? So I sound like a cheesy self help book but it’s true. I could be writing a book review and trying to put my office in organizational mode. Yes, I could have all those writing projects knocked off today. But I thought I would concentrate on my family and the house. Maybe I’ve been reading too many ladies magazines lately.
So, I got out a frequently ignored cookbook and I cooked most of the day . Then checked up on all the news in the paper. I set aside some time to check into the ESPN website to see how the All Star race went last night. Although I followed it on Speed.com I had to check back to find out all the details.
And the ugly rainy day seemed to fly. I did things today, projects that have been hanging around suddenly screamed, “pick me, work on me!” So I looked around. What was the most important, the easiest, the most time consuming? Oh yeah, and the laundry had to fit in there somewhere. The laundry didn’t scream, it whispers from the basement, “I’m down here ….and you will never be rid of me…”(evil laugh) I never drove my car. Which means I didn’t use any gas. For that reason, it was a good day.
All the ladies maqazines give great recipes, tips for your hair, skin, diet, crafts, etc. How about showing us how to save money on gas? How to save money at the grocery store, and not just those ridiculous tips like, use coupons. I guess I know what the subject of my next article is going to be.
