A quick note before I retire for the night on ………

Posted in Blogging at 10:54 pm by Julie

Language.

I never realised before I started this whole blog thing, how different American English is from English English is. I have just been reading back through some posts and can see that some of my words and therefore meaning have changed through spell checking my posts. Spelling has never been my forte (can’t do the accent on the e here, or if I can don’t know how). I have downloaded the blogging word thing, and will try that in future as I like my blogs at least looking like they mean something to me. Thats not to say there’s anything wrong with American English of course.

This feels pretty accurate

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you’re told that you’re loved.

You’d like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything… no secrets.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You’ll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you can get or discard anytime. You’re feeling self centered.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Though not so sure about the last pararagraph, the rest is scarily accurate!

Do men have standards of cleanliness?

Posted in Homelife at 9:10 am by Julie

I am glad to say that as a family we have a reasonably high standard of personal hygiene and cleanliness; even my 14 year old showers more than once a week! One of my main bug bears with hubby though is that he thinks towels are a once only use item. Use it, and throw it somewhere, maybe the floor as it misses the overflowing laundry basket; already full of other towels. Still he has offered to buy me a tumble dryer for Christmas to help with the load. I have a surprise for him if he is serious; it is only 2 weeks till HIS birthday!

But towel use isn’t what this particular rant is about, oh no. I am talking here about the fact that neither of my men folk seem to notice when any area of the bathroom or downstairs cloakroom needs cleaning. They are oblivious to toilet cleaner, how wonderful Cillit Bang or flash is. I could go away for a month…….no let’s not go there. I just wonder if women are programmed in a different way, that they don’t see dirt in the same way a woman sees it. Still maybe there is something I need to face, maybe I am just a wonderful person and they know it?
