WE have no water at the moment since January, so we have to haul water, which means no housecleaning, paper plates and such.. Just sweep the floor. But i have found it to be a big hassle, I would rather clean house every day then to live like this. It would be ok if we were set up for no running water, but not this way. I cant wait to move within the disrtict, we have to wait for the frostline to disappate totally. Of course the advantage to the stress is that I am knitting and beading alot more than before. Hope you enjoyed your vacation. THe Elves as you know from Ravelry were excellant keepers of the castle. CAnt wait to read your blog tomorrow. loveya I should consider my self lucky appro housecleaning.

It was that way in college, too. When I had a nasty homework assignment I didn't want to do, laundry got done and my room got clean and organized.

The taxes will get done, on time, because I usually do work well on deadline, thank goodness, and the bills do get paid, it's just that they all get put off, because all of that seems like what we used to call "busy work" when I was in school, and there are so many other things that I would rather do, like Ravelry, chat with friends, etc. My swatch for the DIC KAL Mr Greenjeans is finally making progress, yay! I am on my third needle size to test, on one long swatch. Have a wonderful vacation in Colorado! I love the beautiful mountains there! But, most of all, I hope that your home and The Loopy Ewe are spared from all of the horrible flooding in Missouri and some other parts of the Midwest, including Ohio!

I'm currently "taking a break" from editing a 90 page System Administration Manual (that's what I get for saying to the documentation manager - you're swamped, can I help you with something?)
