it's almost getting spooky. yes, this is the season for halloween. still, it's one thing to go 'oooh!' in fake horror at a little ghostie. it's quite another for your husband of 12 years change in front of your face.
it's sunday. mellow day. i had gotten into a habit of thinking 'oh sunday, just great, i have umpty-zillion (that's right before femty-zillion and right after oopty-zillion, if my maths are right) things to do, and 7 hours to do it. those are 7 sunday hours, which as you know, goes twice as fast, owing to the sun speeding up on sunday somehow.
or it used to.
today i specifically got out of bed thinking "ya know what? i only have a few things to do today and i have a whole pile of time to do it in."
"oh yeah and thanks for that, big U*"
(*first time readers - i'm on a first letter basis with the universe. it lets me call it U).
also i had started the intention very recently that i have a very tidy house. (sound of laughter in the background.....) i said INTENTION. well, today i was inspired to get dishes washed, clothes washed, and a little boy bathed straight away. when i had all that done it was still 11:30am! holy cow, it's usually 7pm before i have all that done!
in fact, left, right, and centre i was getting a whole pile of things i was wanting. case in point : the internet wouldn't work this morning (well, not my end of it, anyway...). i started to think "oh i don't really want to spend - NO WAIT! - oh yeah - this is going to work quickly and easily." at first, it was really easy - i didn't do it! i specifically didn't do anything until i was in the mode of 'it's going to be easy'. i mean not so easy that my genius goes unrecognized by my husband, but so easy that i just have to touch a few things and it's done.
i got the manual out of the box, clicked on the router wizard, and suddenly everything was fine. seriously, all i did was get the manual out of the box. don't tell my husband. he thinks i have magic fingers. ON THE COMPUTER, PEOPLE, KEEP IT CLEAN!
but these things are just becoming normal (yay! these things are becoming normal!!!). what is novel and weird-in-a-good-way, however, is that there i am doing another set of dishes after dinner and hubby shouts in to me "do you want these clothes taken upstairs? . . .why are you looking at me that way?" which made me notice i wasn't concealing my shock. seriously, my husband offered to and then did take clean clothes upstairs! has he been replaced with a look-alike? where's the pod? do i care? take it and run! "yes please." oh, and "THANK YOU!" i like this husband a lot. he's much better than the one i had been attracting. thank god i stopped doing that!
