‘Tis been too long
23 03 2008Well, as it is now considered spring - regardless of the snowy, cold, and windy weather we're having - I will now post in the Spring catagory. How sad it is that the weather is so frightfully bad . . .
In other news, I did begin to write my story again, but it was not long before I had to cease it and deal with something in the story I had not dealt with yet. I did write some yesterday, though. The other day I wrote what my day would be like if I was to make a schedule for it. The result? A very hectic day, but also very leisurely for me. I would certainly always be doing something I liked, so it could not be too bad or too tiresome. I am not sure if I will at any point follow it. However, I do find it helps me with remembering to eat or make food.
Today we put in a new pellet stove, and it was my parents' 18th wedding anniversary - or I think so. It took a very long time to get the stove in; now it is running nicely. We did not do anything for Easter. Happy anniversary, Mom and Dad
The one thing I have really been working on is imaginary books for in my story. I made a staggering seventy-nine! I will not endeavor to type them all up here - I will be off in a moment to watch something on the television. I do hope none of these are offensive. There are such titles as:
The practical book of avoiding the unwanted; A boys' guide to mind-reading and other magical tricks to impress your friends (and charm a lady!); Marrying off your daughter, the easy way; Understanding the abstruse; Memoirs of a simpleton; A lifetime of dim-witted mistakes (and how to prevent them); How to become bluestocking and agreeable; Meddling and troublesome children: tried and true ways to set them straight; How to understand the easily understood (in eight volumes); The villains' guide to conquering any village, continent, or world - for all ages; Acceptable and unacceptable men and women's professions; A young ladies' guidebook to chaming young gentlemen in the appropriately fashioned and socially acceptable way; All of the Unknown Sea: an exceedingly short history.






I think you should post that schedule, it was very entertaining. Also, I should like to know where I could find a copy of “Marrying off your daughter, the easy way” as I appear to have an over-abundance of them.
Oh, ha ha. I’ll get to that schedule.
