And the white rabbit said, follow me down the hole and I did

My sister has nicknamed me "the Quilting Ostrich" a name that is very be-fitting for me... I do bury my head daily, in my crafts, take a day at a time and am very happy with this agreement I have made for myself. You see, having and going through cancer treatment can and is overwhelming... But if I'm doing my crafts...I'm thinking wow this is great to be able to be creative... But if I'm doing "normal" stuff...cleaning, cooking, going to the store, etc...I'm thinking this is hard to do with cancer.... The reality sets in and then I am sad... On the other hand...my family does like it when I cook, me too... and its hard to argue a clean house and clean clothes.... Yet............"what's that?" I see and hear you material, yes!! lets do a project.............

Expectations from Others

It seems to me that when we expect others to act in a certain way, the way we expect, its trouble.

Hurt feels are sure to follow.  What I wonder is it wrong to have expectations?

I believe we all view the world from our own perception.  I sometimes try to look at the situation from "their" view and sometimes it works so you just agree to disagree and sometimes I just don't get it.

Relationships, what is it that bonds them together. Something has to click or resonate that holds them together.  So when people drift apart is that because its gone, how long should you hold on, waiting for something to click again?

Families..is it just the blood that holds them together after awhile?

Judgemental..... its a characteristic I dislike the most, and I find that I am becoming very judgemental...must stop

Time...I'm obsessed with not wasting time, but.......what who is to say what is wasting time,  writing in a blog might be concerned by some to be wasting time. I'm going stop now and bake some chocolate chip cookies....No one can claim that is a waste of time!!!!

Day by Day

As unrealistic it is to "live for today".... Sometimes all you can do is "get through the day"

Suspended in Time

I've always daydreamed about being able to "freeze time".  (B.C.)

Kinda like if I had a super power....

It seemed like there was always more to do than what "time" allowed.....

NOW..........I'm "frozen in time"

Its like being suspended, going through the motions of life without the connection to it.

All for the incorrect conjugating of a verb!

It's all in how you look at it.

It just occurred to me. Hell, I did time at ATT. Hard time, 4 years. I can do 6 months of Chemo!! It may seem harsh comparing chemo to working at ATT but ...... Those who have walked those halls know what I am talking about.

Patience

Patience....why do we lose it? Where does it go??? I know if we count to 10 we should get it back.... Traffic seems to be like Kryptonite to patience... Its something you should always pack when you go on vacation... Its a virtue...or so they say You can run out of Patience...and then it triggers a boiling temperature.. Some say you get more of it the older you become... And then there's that grasshopper thing Patience can be unlimited and just as quick it can be drained by a "look"

yikes!!! company is coming

As I was swishing pine sol in the toilet bowl, it got me to thinking. Do most people have a "go to" that they clean if they know someone is stopping by? My routine is: For a short drive by visit - I'll check the toilets and run the duster across the wooden floors. For a over-night visit - My first priority is the refrigerator, clean it, organize it and if my mom is coming, I'm cleaning every jar. (inside of lid and rim of jar.) And from there its a matter of how much time I have, sometimes I even manage to clean the entire house. My husband loves when we have company. And if you have a regular house keeper, you have no idea of what I am talking about.
