Question of the week - 2

[Guest guest]

, I intend to answer each of the three questions you asked, but

whenever I think about my answers I start to cry. Like everyone else, I

experience difficulties every day but if I just go on and don't think about them

it doesn't hurt so much.

On question two, for years I had someone come in to clean every other week. It

worked out very well. My last person quit in August. She would rather clean

the $1M+ houses by the golf course where I'm sure she makes more money. I am

curently trying to do it myself and manage to vaccuum, dust and keep the kitchen

& parts of the bathroom clean. I just don't care about the rest.

As far as the outside of the house, it's a wreck. I would love to plant flower

gardens and putter around trimming bushes and things. I could ask my husband to

do things but he either puts it off or does a half ass job. Pardon my

language,but last fall he cleaned out the leaves and dead plants from our water

garden. He left this mess on ths sidewalk. After looking at this pile of debris

for three weeks I decided to pick it up and throw it in the woods. Not

difficult because all I did was use the pooper scooper to pick up the stuff; so

no big deal. However, I did trip on the garden edging and fell flat on my back.

My tailbone hit first, then my shoulder, then my head. Fortunately it was on

the grass and the next thing I knew my dog was licking my face to keep me alert.

I blamed by husband since I would not have been out there in the first place if

he had done his job correctly. My bruises healed but I was pretty sore for a

while.

After that incident, to heck with how the outside looks. If he doesn't see the

mess, I'll just have to ignore it too. I think I'm to the point where I just

don't care anymore about many things. Barbara
