Life’s too short to........

PS Some Grans may be too young to remember the original saying ‘ to stuff a mushroom’

Ironing. I'm annoyed with myself that I spent so much time in the past doing it.

Worry. I'm a serial worrier.

Continue reading a book I'm not enjoying.No matter how many prizes it's won or rave reviews it's had.

- ironing
- cleaning
- making beds for them to sit there all day with no-one in them or even seeing them.
- cleaning the car - it goes along very happily whilst dirty.
- tidying - I like to see books, crosswords and all the other parephanalia (?sp) of life strewn about.
- dusting - until there is a nice layer that can be banished with a satisfying sweep of the duster!
- drying crocks - I am a great believer in leaving things to drain and dry themselves.
- spending hours cooking only to see it all eaten in a flash.

Housewife of the Year 2019 - that's me!

I so agree about finishing reading a book that you are not enjoying. Why did I used to do that?

Life's too short to bear grudges.

Most of what Luckygirl said. Also:
Peel a potato.
Peel or wash a mushroom.
Shave the parts of my legs that don't show.

I only put fake tan from the knees down!
I live alone

Me too Lona and I don't live alone.

Life's far too short to do anything I don't really want to do...and too short to worry.
Worry makes you ill and gets you nowhere.

Bramble jelly is worth making

I usually get several pots; it's a good way of using up last year's blackberries still lurking in the freezer.

Doing ironing!
Steam cleaning the floors

The blackberries had been lurking! But next time I’ll just make jam ( with apple)
I agree about worry , but can’t stop it !!

I agree worrying is a total waste of time! If only my head was more amenable to reason!!

I'm trying to make that my new resolution, having struggled through several books then thought I wish I hadn't bothered. I've just deleted several from my Kindle, including Wolf Hall (started, disliked the style of writing) and feel much better now.

I am putting off making the bramble jelly though!

...read posts which take up more than the whole of my iPad screen!

Especially when copied and pasted from some newspaper article which is, in fact, only someone's opinion anyway.

Bring on links I say, then we can skip past them!

.......to worry about things I have no control over.

.......to accept invitations I do not want to attend.

........to care what people think of me!

- to bother with make-up
- to wear posh clothes

I sound more of a slut by the minute
