Made My Choice about being Organized : )
It was a tough decision, but I made it. I ironed Emery's shirts for the week and from there on decided it was just more fun to play. I cut roses, picked asparagus, looked for a mockingbird nest in my wisteria bush, mowed the grass, worked on the flower bed that goes along side the driveway, and then decided it might just be a good idea to fall asleep in the chair for a bit, so I did.
I think my dear friend LaTeaDah has it right in her comment to me on the c-box. Its just more fun to have moved beyond the days of having to be so organized that my storage boxes have numbers. It was needed then, but now, I want to be less of a slave to housework. You know people come to see me if there is dust or no dust. I played with some fabric, trying to decide just how to dress up the bassinet for Mei-Ling. Later, Steven and Priscilla's baby will sleep in this tiny basket too when they visit...wait, I probably won't let either baby out of my arms when they are here. Grandmothers are meant to hold babies, not put them down !

I may just pass that new edition of Emilie Barnes onto one of the mothers-to-be in the family. Its my time to have tea parties, to dress up when I want to, to play in the dirt of the garden and call it work. Yup, LaTeaDah, you are right. Tomorrow, I am going to build a nice fire in the stove, ( supposed to be very cold tomorrow) cook breakfast on it, and then just watch the chicks grow, until something else comes along, like Emery takes me out on a date. (he reads my blog, so he probably is getting the hint : )
Oh decided not to cook tonight, Emery is taking me out for Pizza. Life is good, yup, it sure is.
