The Art of being Lazy.

This is Cassandra, daughter of an Australian Champion who is "going to do well" I reckon Mr Mac would do well too. .( Note ,that shopping at the end should include going for coffee,lunch and the occasional drive as well.)

Have just spent 4 hrs on Scott's computer,looking up poetry,dachshunds,petsites,Maps,Found great one of Scott's house but could not find Denise & Bruce. Will try others on Google maps later. But then , this is the hard day for this 68 year old at present anyway. \

Get up, 6.00 or 6.30 am. Walk 1 1/2 - 2 hours.

Back for breakfast fruit & shake & watch Sunrise & Today while embroidering till 9 am.

Do washing, by hand as there is not much, wipe sink, any watering & other little pickup jobs.

Shower.

Watch telly, go on computer , talk to dog,throw her the odd ball and perhaps read a little till shake & salad for lunch.

Embroider,watch telly and /or have a short snooze and a swim and walk in pool.

Go & have tea with my husband (today) and play Mah Jong at the club.

Return to this house after 9. Better wash (by hand!!!!! believe it or not) my dishes and to bed.Read a little.

I reckon that is as it should be for all female 68 year olds but include in that some shopping trips.

What a difference a street makes. Walked the edge of this estate and admired the mansions and beautiful gardens on the extra large lots.(Despite our water problem, though I noticed a few had advertising boards for watersaving systems having been installed)Then took a small path around the back . That was full of graffiti and rubbish thrown in the bush . At the end of that small path was the Banjup kennel zone. I walked all the streets( Including Crufts Way, where Mac came from) and boy, what a difference.The reasonably nice homes (or kennels) and gardens were few and far between. It was typically unkempt houses with dead trees, dead cars and garages full of junk. That is just a street away from the other pristene area. Amazing.

Karen can you photograph your girls' embroideries and email them either to my Yahoo or home email. I'll do the same here. I've been told one must photograph and publish all one's Xstitch so will do and publish on here.
