A Weekend of NOTHING!!

       I hope you all had a good weekend. Hubby and I are officially...slugs now! LOL We didn't do anything of substance this weekend, besides our meeting for spiritual upbuilding, of course. We just sat around and counted each other's toes and chin hairs! LOL ... And it was GREAT!! :-)
   I shouldn't say that we didn't do anything. I browsed through some treasuries that my Wuglyees shop items were in. The header photo is one of the treasuries, entitled Pretty in Pink, curated by wimzieprints.
     SouthwestCrafts put me in a treasury entitled Tweet, Tweet, Tweet
    And ByYourSide2009 put me in their treasury entitled Visions of Sugarplums...
    It was fun looking through all of them, but by no means strenuous work! 
   Hubby did take some up-dated photos for my shop though,...in fact, these are the others I didn't share with you yesterday...

      And I did do some crocheting. Nothing particular. Just fiddling around, using up some yarn, making flower brooches to give as free gifts to my shop customers. 
    I'll have to be more focused this week though. I got a call for a custom order...a friend of a friend wants me to make pull on hats for her family!! {Not difficult hats to make, but time consuming...and I have to focus myself more, because it's the same pattern over and over. You know how much I like to do that!!...NOT! LOL} 
     So, that's technically not NOTHING that we were doing. But Shequita and Baby Wuglyee were looking at us like: "Seriously?! That's all you're going to do?!...

    ...Can we have the car keys?!" ^_^ But since Shequita doesn't have hands or a body to steer a car with, and Baby Wuglyee can't read the road signs anyway, ...we just ignored them, and continued to lay around doing NOTHING! LOL
    By evening time we got a little bit more motivated, because the work week was looming. Lunches had to be prepared, the meal planned for the week, weather and cars had to be checked, and sleep had to be had! Oh yeah....and we also wanted to see the finale of Survivor! :-) But shhhhhhh! We didn't see it yet. We were so tired from doing...NOTHING...that we fell asleep shortly after it started!!^_^ These are the times I'm thankful to have my computer almost back to normal. I can look at the whole episode online today! 
   Okay, so I suppose I better get going to do....hmmmm....I'll think of something! ^_^ Our meeting has changed this week to tonight instead of Thursday, so there's that. And after I get the emailed measurements for the hats I'll start those. But, my studying for the meeting is all done, I slept straight through without waking up last night, so I'm all rested, and all my other chores are done. I guess I'll be a Slug at Leisure today! ^_^ 
   I already did do SOMETHING this morning. Having all this time on my hands left me fishing through old poems of mine. With the computer fiasco recently, I'm thinking about a more safe place to keep my poems I've written over the years! And while fishing through I found one I never shared with you!...about myself and a bad school incident when I was much younger. Let me know what you think?! And have a good day doing everything...or nothing, like me! :-)

I've Been Heavy All My Life

I knew I'd  ace the Spelling Bee,
But then I got the urge to pee!

Just one more word-Then I would zoom!
Oh No! The trickle came too soon!

There was a trail-right out the door.
"Is that a rainbow on the floor?"

The teasing always came like that;
For me, the girl-too smart, too fat.

I've  been heavy all my life.
A truth that cuts just like a knife!

I was a loving, caring girl-
Lived in my own imagined world.

Wrote in my diary every day.
Would rather eat, than go and play.

Could see the pain in other's  eyes,
from many tears that I had cried.

But all that they could see was fat,
and how I moved, and looked, and sat.

I've  been heavy all my life.
A truth that cuts me like a knife!

I fell in love-What was the link?
My words on paper made him think.

The poems written from my heart
about my loves, my pains, my art.

He saw what others could not see-
The inside person-The real me.

His love was always just like that
for me, the girl-too smart, too fat.

I've  still been heavy all my life,
but as his happy, chubby wife!
