Happy Wednesday

Good afternoon/evening to all my friends here in the myLot world. I've been busy doing things around the house this morning so this is the first chance I've had to sit at the computer and say hi. Since my house is two levels I decided to stay upstairs for awhile this morning. I changed the sheets on my bed, did a few loads of laundry, vacuumed and dusted my room and then cleaned the bathroom. I have a very large master bedroom with a pretty big bathroom. It's like having my own private suite but it's not easy keeping it all dust free. Since we have forced hot air heating it just blows dust throughout the house all the time. It doesn't matter is it's the heat or the air conditioning...dust is a daily occurrence. Some days I feel like my house is too big even though it was my choice when house hunting 8 years ago and looking to downsize. The older I get the more time it takes to clean. I can't zip through the house anymore and I miss those days when I was agile and full of energy. However, my daughter is a big help and does her share of cooking and cleaning so I'm not trying to tackle it all myself. After a busy morning I'm going to chat there for awhile and then this afternoon I want to sit and read. I haven't been reading much lately and I need to get back to enjoying a good book. I swore I wouldn't talk about the weather here today (even though we're having a blizzard and not the kind from Dairy Queen). What are you doing for fun today?

Haven't done a whole lot of fun stuff today. Lol, did some laundry, dishes and cleaned the ovens out. Now waiting for the wind to die down to burn trash. Then it will be time to go get the mai.

I though laundry and dishes were fun for you.

We went to exercise class at the pool and then stayed to walk for 15 more minutes. We went out for dinner and I have been working on genealogy a lot today.

@Marilynda1225 I am doing my daughter in laws now and I am finding it fascinating.

@BelleStarr my aunt started doing it on my fathers side of the family but I don't know how far she's gotten. Yes, it's fascinating. Now you reminded me to ask her next time we talk

Sounds like you had a fun day. Working on genealogy is intriguing.

Nothing fun because I have been hoping for a phone call from the focus group people. The only calls I have gotten are from solicitors..about my "student loan debt." I have none!!

@Marilynda1225 These fake student loan people called me 3x. I usually don't answer the phone for numbers i don't recognize but I was answering the phone today for local calls.

I hate those calls. Lately I've been getting calls from a debt collector for someone I never heard of

I wish we could upsize to a bigger house! We have a small space and are busting at the seam with our "stuff" - it's hard to keep the house clean with 2 kids. Fun stuff . . . well, I had a morning of shopping errands, but I was able to look around for "me", though I didn't get anything for myself. Now it's time to clean for an hour - then I pick up one of the kids!

I remember when my children were growing up and our house was bursting at the seams. Looking back those were the best years

I need to do some cleaning too. It's not my favourite thing by any means.

You have much more energy than I do. My days of zip and energy have zapped! Nice your daughter helps out - that makes a huge difference.

Having my daughter to help does make things easier

My house is half the size that I grew up in. I have always wished this house was bigger but more space means more area to clean so I understand you there as well as the dust with the forced hot air!

Just hanging out at my PC. Today is one of those days when I cannot decide if I want to work or not or do anything. So I am glad my day is over and soon I can relax and watch a movie. Hope you have a good afternoon.
