full house

which is unusual for a Saturday
I'd bask in the courtyard, in the swing seat only the boys are chatting, debating, who am I trying to kid - argueing, in the breakfast room (it's really hot and sunny and all the windows are open) (so I can hear every charming word they utter) (really really hot and beautifully sunny! which makes a change) about something they're playing on the xBox. . .
I'd lounge on the roof terrace, alone in the hammock made for two only Mini-Teen and her crowd of other mini-teens (they had an "it's-not-a-party-party" last night and rather too many for my comfort levels stayed over) baggysied it first. . .
I'd pack them all of their father's only I don't have the heart because they're all chilling really contentedly here and anyhow he should be chasing them up and it's not up to me to organise his life anymore, is it (*sigh of relief*). . .
.
. . .it's weird! I don't know what to do with myself

How odd...here's me, on a Saturday night...and guess who has the headache?
Shall we play on-line scrabble or something?

Wow. I had a day off work yesterday and *I* didn't know what to do with myself either.
So I putzed around doing a bit of this and a bit of that.

I think it was sorta nice....maybe...

Personally, sitting in the sun void of other human beings IS doing something according to Mel.

Himself asks me "What are you doing?" when I'm doing patio time.

I answer "I'm 'de-fragging', ty for asking."

I didn't know what to do with myself today either and it would have been a good idea to defrag myself :) But instead I got to catch up with the shopping and the washing while climbing over all the bits of room that were in the wrong places - still!
But it was wonderfully hot and sunny :) And now it's lovely having a chance to catch up with much nicer things like what's been going on here!

I've been so busy, and not feeling all that well either, that I wish I could have some "I don't know what to doi with myself" time. So now, it's like five a.m. and I'm up, and I have a long day ahead of me with no plans. There are things to do, but I don't have to do them. I promise not to be bored.

Peace.
