A poem wot I wrote ...

I took a whole week off from
to do all kinds of things
Like clean the house and cut the
and take DGS to the swings.
Here I am at Wednesday with the house still in a mess
The lawn's in cut the swing's unswung and i really must confess
To doing bugger all!?

I'm in awe of all you literary gransnetters. Keep them coming enjoying them so much

Well, as you now seem to have a bit of spare time merlotgran there are one or two things that need doing here ...

Wednesday is the day that DH b****rs off to fish,
'Why not have an easy day?' he said. 'Relax a bit' - I wish!
So I've hoovered and I've ironed - hung the washing out to dry,
Hoed the weeds around the vegetables and made a chicken pie
Right now I'm feeling knackered so I've made a pot of tea
And a cheese and onion sandwich with some biscuits.....all for me
It's so good to have that feeling that there's no more to be done
But it rankles that I'm hard at work while he's out having fun.

Not really.......Fishing's not my idea of a fun filled day

Eat! Thanks for the reminder imp - I knew there was something i meant to do ?

Great pomes ... still haven't done anything except type and eat and drink today - no shame!!!

With bedsheets drying in the breeze
And white towels blanching in the sun
I lie hear thinking of the ease
With which my daily tasks are done.

So what if inside lurks some dust?
So what if tidiness is not a must?
What years are left I shall proclaim
Mine to live in sun , wind and rain.

'Tis easier, I must admit
As I am not a tidy Brit
But just a Mediterranean soul
Or maybe someone playing that role!

Wonderful! Proper pomes wot rhyme! Thank you, love 'em! (And so very true!)

I used to be so full of life
From dawn to dusk , so busy.
Never sitting still too long
Rushing round till dizzy!

Now I have one special thing
The thing my heart desired,
No rush no matter what life brings
I'm bloody well retired !!

Good work Cherrytree - I would give a lot to have my GS asleep in my lap - how lovely!

I meant to start my diet today
I also meant to start yesterday
We'll actually it was Monday
At the beginning of August
I meant to pot up a plant and finish off some cushions.
I meant to pop to town to change a blouse
If only I had started that diet!

But even though I'm on GN
I do have my GS fast asleep on my lap

So at least I can say I'm multitasking!!

Imperfect, you are not alone
It's much the same in my sweet home
To-do lists lying all ignored
And I can't even write a pome

Well I was up at crack of dawn,
Did twenty mins keep fit,
Then put the washing on the line
And tidied up a bit.

I walked the dogs then washed the floor
And ordered stuff online
I baked a cake and changed the beds
But then again....I'm lying ?
