Work, Work, Work!

Don't ya feel like all you do is work? And why? Why do we work? I have asked myself that question many times. But I just can't seem to sit still and not do something. Like today, I will vacuum the floors, clean the bathroom, wash some laundry. I will do that in between checking my online stores, reading my mail, sewing up my ipod/camera/cell phone holders and maybe get to the apron. Meanwhile the hubby will (when he finally drags himself out of bed) scratch, yawn, drink coffee, read the newspaper (maybe, if I bring it in) watch In the Heat of the Night, eat his breakfast, take his medicine, watch The Price is Right and then go back to bed. Now I ask you, what is wrong with this picture? Probably not a thing if you are looking from his viewpoint! lol!

I have come to the conclusion about 30 years ago (yes, we have been married that long) that I could run circles around him. It must be something you inherit, because I have three daughters that are the same. When we go camping, the men sit around the campfire drinking and smoking and having a gay ole' time. Meanwhile, we go fishing, catch the fish, clean the fish, cook the fish, and they eat the fish! We clean the campground, clean the pontoon, make sure it has gas and oil. We keep the campfire going with the wood we have packed in the back of the truck and brought. We cook all the meals, and do all the dishes and when the day is done, they expect us to sit down with them and drink! lol! Well, we know they are pretty useless at times, but we have kept them for a long time. I would have to say they got the better end of the deal but that's the way the cookie crumbles! lol!

So as I watch the sun come up, (well it's behind that cloud out there right now) I will drink my coffee, get my eyeballs open and officially start the day! You all take care now!
