MUST HAVE ART!
Today, i am wasting away more hours blogging. No Guilt Zone, chicks and roos. Today is no guilt blogging day.
Before i leave the whole Netflix thing, i have a recommendation. Bear in mind that my movie and TV series recommendations are usually rejected by my friends and family, so you can't hurt my feelings if you don't agree with me in these areas (maybe politics but not art). Robson Arms is a Canadian television production that i think is very good. If you have ever watched Tales of the City you will know immediately the kind of genre i'm talking about. i am looking forward to watching the second season. Also check out another Canadian series called, Slings and Arrows. Excellent! Do not let your Shakespeare phobia stop you from watching this series. OK, ok, enough. Movin on.
i now am the owner of a camera. It is a gift from the company i have worked for for ten years. No doubt you will all be exposed to my photographic impulses in the next week. Don't expect too much. There is a lot to learn. Oh my gosh, it is going to take me awhile to learn how to use it as well as how to run the photo program on the computer. Yeah, i don't have enough going on with spring cleaning, banishing and garden planning to do. my parents are coming home next month so i will have them coming and going.
i will be happy to see them but i always worry about having my house just so when they are around. i won't burden you with my parent/child behavioral quirks. Suffice to say, i fall short of my expectations which are probably not those of my parents but i always feel like my house and yard are not up to snuff for them.
The sun has finally come out and who knows how long it will last here in western Oregon. Mind you, it is still pretty cold, too cold to do any real yard work. But, i still get the itch to get out there. i am also resisting the urge to brood another chick or two this spring. P wants me to, but i've decided to wait until next year to add to my flock. i am going to redesign the nest boxes in the coop so i'll keep you posted on that. i'll do pictures!
i've met J's new friend and like her very much. They came over last Sunday and i talked her ear off. i did it for a couple of reasons; nervousness for sure but also because i love to talk politics and such and i talk a lot as compensation for spending much of my time alone. As i've said before, i am not lonely, i like my own company but good conversation is fun too. i don't want to jinx anything so i won't talk about J and C except to say first blush is positive.
It is about time to get my taxes done. This is not only necessary but a part of my whole Spring cleaning-pay old debts-banish negative influences-wrap my home in protection before i plant my garden plan. i have work to do to get ready to do my taxes, Oy.
Lists will be needed, chicks and roos. And a plan of attack. And that is exactly what i am off to do now, mi amigos.
