walking home, laden with groceries cursing the fact I hadn't made an on-line order this week (and yes, I forgot the cat biscuits, so I'll have to go out again) (or perhaps they'd like to share a tin of tuna?) (again!)

and I was thinking of when I first downgraded postal districts and trudged the streets of SWLondon SomethingOrOther - when you, dear reader, were the Company of Friends who joined me in the Kindness of Strangers. . .

(in one of those moments when your thoughts are clear of things in the important/urgent box) (you know that grid that they taught you in executive training, on the course entitled "how to accomplish everything on your to-do list in one easy lesson") (no? you are kidding! well, you draw a large square, and then divide it into quarters, then write "urgent/not urgent" across the top two boxes, and "important/not important" down the side two boxes, then you divide your tasks up into important/urgent, important/not urgent, not urgent/important and not urgent/not important, then you do the important/urgent ones, then the urgent/not important or not urgent/important ones [kinda depends on the task, and this is the flaw of the grid IMHO] and obviously you either don't do the not important/not urgent ones or you wait until they become not important/urgent) (ta-da!) (of course, it's much more fun if your "box" is circular, or an ellipse even, and I suppose it would work with a heart but it might not work with a star) (they don't tell you that on the course)

Oh gosh....please please please--don't you understand I talk with my hands?!?!
Go figure, eh? LOL
This would be why Mel will continue with all SORTS of punctuation and fun things!
(including poor grammar AND newly invented words!)
I thank you for the donation of full stops to my cause!
(you did donate them, right?......)
(cuz you see how frequently I use them, right?....)
:-D
I need all the full stops I can get! ;-)
Mel I really like the newly invented words. . .
talking with hands is good
(-:
here, have some more........ ... ...... ... ...... .... . ......... . ..... ..
Dave yes, it does
(Mel I know that looks like Morse Code, but it's not!)
Yup--looks like Morse Code, but I'll take what I can get! :-)
Geeze, I've tried sitting on my hands and even folding them in my lap......NOPE--handtalker!
Gawwwwwwdd.....I just know that's a sign of old age......LOL
<-- going for a bubble bath with duckies and gold fishie!
I sorta like full stops.
and I love the rainbow coloring of the post...sorta fits the content just about perfect....
katherine. tell me why!
Mel hope you had a wonderfully hot and bubbly and relaxing bath
(-:
Is this some kind of crossword puzzle?
Ok. I can do the square and the quarters.
And the words across the top and down the sides (as long as spell check is working - I can spell perfectly well but I do lots of typos).
After that I get a bit confused.
I think it's just as well life goes on.
