Spring Cleaning..........


It's springtime (supposedly)! The other day I took a look around my house and realized it was time for a good Spring Cleaning. I had gotten a jump start on it last fall when I started dejunking, but cold yucky weather kind of takes the excitement out of it. Did I just say excitement?

Well, I tried to clean, I really did...........but all the rain and mud is presenting a challenge I'm just not up to.

With two dogs and two cats (one long-haired), there are always mud tracks in the kitchen..............With kids, always dirty dishes and mounds of laundry. With farm animals, barns to clean, hooves to clip........

The list goes on and on...just writing it is making me tired...............

Could it be time for a nap?

Probably not...guess I had better get back to housework  work.

Maybe tomorrow...........

So how is your Spring cleaning going?

Just wondering....and looking for inspiration!


Stinky Feet, sledding in shorts and more...

You know with a title like that it  must be Friday. I love Fridays! That's where I can share all the trivial stuff I run into all week as well as my aimless observations. It's also my #1 blog-hopping day! It's so fun!

So why not join us for Virtual Girls Night Out and Friday Fragments.

Here are a few fragments I had lurking around in my brain:

Those evil cats!



I can't help wondering why my cat won't eat if the light isn't on. It doesn't even have to be that dark! There will be food there, but she will meow FOREVER until you turn the light on.

And why do our two cats have to egg the dog on? One of the cats will be sleeping on the back of the couch. Our poor  dog, Rocky,  will innocently walk by. In the blink of an eye the silence is shattered. The cat awakens with a bellowing "rearrrr" and reaches a  paw down and slaps Rocky upside the head. Can you blame him for getting a bit perturbed?

And people wonder why cats drive me crazy!

Talk about dumb!

How about dumber than a 1st grader? We were watching are you dumber than a 5th grader. They asked a 1st grade question and NO ONE HERE knew the answer! There was me (40-something or another), Rons 25 yr old son, my 18 yr old son & my 12 yr old daughter! Uh, duh!

Speaking of dumb, what the heck is a Gerund?

I swear I don't remember learning this stuff in school!

Ok, do you know what a Gerund is? hmmm....

I know now!

Stinky Feet?

I just read this in a book. If you have stinky feet, take a pair of knee high stockings and fill them each with kitty litter. Tie off at the top. At night, put one in each shoe. They will smell fresh in the morning.

I couldn't test this as (believe it or not) no one has stinky feet here! Lucky me!




Speaking of feet...

Did you know that your foot is as long as the distance from your wrist to your elbow?

It's true- try it.

While you're there, spread your arms out and measure the distance between them. That is your approximate height.

...of course, if you want to know your height, why not just measure yourself?

Just a thought!

Why is it that...

If you see someone yawning, you just have to yawn?




Here are a few yawning facts:

1. Babies yawn in the womb

2. Anxious or nervous people yawn more

3. Bored people yawn more.

Um....have you yawned yet?

Bet you did!

Even reading about it makes you yawn!

Finally...............

Why can't winter and snow be warm? I know the theory, snow will melt, yadda-yadda!

But stay with me for a minute here. Imagine if it was warm out and it snowed. The snow is warm as well. There is so much fun stuff you could do:

Build a snowman that never melts

You could still swim- all you need is an ice cutter!




Go sledding in shorts and a t-shirt

Dance barefoot in the snow

You could have snow wrestling competitions.

Doesn't it all sound so warm & fuzzy?

And on that note...

It's time to go Blog-Hopping!

See you all around the blogosphere!
