Now - maybe after the crisis and mini crisis du jour is over I can clean up and stitch this one up



AAAHHHHH````` Come here and I'll give you a hug.

What were today's crices (what the hell is the plural of crisis?)

Crises. You almost got it.

Elizabeth

Came home from IL very tired and a mountain of housework to do. Then early afternoon on Monday, DH's buddy called; he was having chest pains and was dithering about calling 911 (IDIOT) and would I come get the dog? Got dog, been back and forth to hospital multiple times. (I'm listed as next of kin.)

C

Almost ???

Now I'm more confused than ever, which isn't too difficult for me nowadays.

I hope he's fine and you get back to "normal" soon.

Um, you wrote "crices" but it's "crises."

"Lucille" wrote to Cheryl

When Cheryl was asking about the plural of crisis, I had a thought, and her recent account bears it out. Sometimes, the plural of crisis is "daily life". Hold on Cheryl. We're pulling for you.

OOPPPSSSS !!! That's doesn't say much for my ability to proof read, or Microsoft's spell checker.

I like your meaning a lot, but it wasn't Cheryl that mispelled crisis, it was me. ;*)))

Lucille

"Lucille" wrote I like your meaning a lot, but it wasn't Cheryl that mispelled crisis, it

I think you just misremembered it! You did know that it was unconventional, so points to you. Dawne

Actually I'm considered a pretty good speller. It was more like a mindless typo and a lack of proper proofing on my part, plus too often being in a hurry.

Or, alternatively, I could call it a "Senior Moment."

He's going to be IF he wraps that tiny mind of his around the fact he needs to take the meds and stop smoking.

Normal, what's normal?

Still need that chart. But I actually really think I want(????) to do housework right now.

C

Sometimes, I find it soothing. Sometimes, it's the only place in my life where I can make headway that I can see, even if things get dirty again all over. At least they're clean and put away for a few seconds and I can see that I've accomplished something.

Elizabeth

Dear girl, take a deep breath and sit down with an adult beverage until that feeling passes.

Thanks for my first laugh of the day.

This isn't already a chart, is it?

Do you really want that chart - it just came to the shop yesterday, could go in the mail with the weed ;^)

LMK directly...

Have to say, we don't usually get cutesy sayings, or really trite ones, but we did get this one - seems too appropos. At the same time, a couple of weeks ago, the boss insisted we get "Big Hair, Small Butt" which has a pic of a blonde with very big ala Texas 1960 hair and blue eyeshoadow. Says something like "The bigger the hair, the smaller the butt looks" - everyone who sees it laughs, but no takers to stitch. That and the "not tonight dear" which we have 2 versions of. Don't know what's gotten into the boss - spring fever or something.

Ellice

No - I don't need it - I do have a different LK about housework

I think you need to be in big hair land for that one to "fly".

C

I have to agree with Ellice. Folks laugh at the cute sayings, but don't buy them, with a few exceptions.

I also have to agree with Karen...get a drink and wait until the feeling passes. Life is too short to do housework! Especially when one could be stitching or reading or sleeping or eating...
