Chores you kinda like...

I loved reading this thread and have to agree with some others that the most unloved chore by far in our home is the unloading of the dishwasher, it gets loaded okay I just wish someone sneaks in while everyones at work and puts it all away for us.

I hate to be the one to point this out Debs, but you're not supposed to do it out in public!!!

Just teasing, of course!

Barbara

You're a ham and you show it...........

Who, me?

Barbara

 

[expatgirl]

Couldn't be, then who???

 

[expatgirl]

by the way, Barbs, you need to put your derriere in the bed and go to sleep.......I know what time it is over there.......if it's the middle of the afternoon here I know it's the middle of the morning am there..........

This is a fun line. There really isn't much in the chore line that I like, but my grandmother loved washing dishes. I always thought that was a little weird, but now that I live in a locale that has actual winters, I'm getting to see her point. When it is ten degrees out and you have an opportunity to immerse your hands in nice warm water, well, I can see it now.

Thanks for the kick in the you-know-what! It is now 6:22, and I'm on my way to bed! Sheesh! I've been entering sweepstakes. Sometimes the early morning hours can be the best time for instant-wins. I didn't win any instant-wins today, but I did enter both James and me in lots of sweeps, and my $25 gas card came in the mail this week. Maybe I'll win a maid service to do the housework that I hate to do!!

if that's what it takes to get your tush in bed then I hope you win LOTS of gas cards.........however, if you lived over here it wouldn't be nighttime either.....we're 12 hours ahead of you give or take one or two............

 

[expatgirl]

and Claire, I'm going to fuss at you, too............what are you doing up so late????

 

[expatgirl]

oh, goodness.........am I the dreaded thread killer.........

 

[Barbara L]

Yep! You killed it! You were the last one!

Uh, oops.

Barbara

 

[Barbara L]

Debs, this will be you and me when we finally meet:






Barbara

 

[expatgirl]

****ed........I knew it......pickles and few other choice words............

 

[expatgirl]

sorry I''m the dreaded thread killer.......here with my might sword so that I can smite all newcomers who want to post..............

 

[Claire]

Expat, I don't know if you call it up late or up early! Simple answer, insomnia, my life-long friend. Works really good for me with friends who live in far away places!

 

[expatgirl]

yeah, I suffer from it, too, esp. if I'm worried about something.......I don't know how my hubby does it........I don't care what's going on......he manages to sleep soundly......his whole family is that way........not me.......I'll go to sleep but then I wake up at 2am and am up 2 hours later.......I have to force myself to go back to sleep..........my mother who passed when I was young used to tell me that I slept-walked at any early age......so probably genetic.......

 

[expatgirl]

Debs, this will be you and me when we finally meet:






Barbara

those are too cute........Barbs...you're a sweetheart....send me a pm and I'll try and reach you in the states when I get home.........I'll do the same for you, too......we at least have to talk on the phone..........
