For the small hardware shop I keep changing my mind about what stock to buy first. Taps look good on display, a customer sees where the money has gone, but the elbows and washers are what people ask me for when shops are already closed. I could sell twenty small things while one expensive tap sits there gathering dust. Then a man on the verandah says you must show variety or people think you have nothing, which is also true. Have written three different lists on the delivery note in my wallet. The fittings I know. Guessing what people will buy before they have called me with a problem, that is a different job.

The lad at work said he hoped he was as happy in his job when he was my age. I laughed and told him to aim a bit higher than testing pool water before breakfast, but I was quite pleased. I don't think of myself as setting an example, I just like being there and knowing what needs doing. At the depot I used to come home and not want to hear another person's voice for half an hour. These days my wife says I tell her all the little stories twice. Told her this one as well and she said she already knew I was happy. Nice to hear it from someone who hasn't got to live with me, though.

At trivia I laughed so hard at our friend's absolutely confident wrong answer that I had to lean against the booth and wait for my breath to come back. Nothing graceful about it, my stomach was tight and my eyes were running while everybody else had moved on to the next question. My voice sounded lower afterward, which I noticed because I'm used to hearing my bright phone voice all day. I hadn't realized how much I was holding my shoulders up until they were against the seat. By the time we left my cheeks actually felt tired. We came nowhere close to winning, but my body apparently thought it was an event worth attending.

mon petit frere a dit a un copain que j'etais la meilleure de mon equipe et je l'ai entendu depuis ma chambre. j'ai eu trop envie de sortir dire que pas du tout parce que si son copain vient a un match et que je rate tout bonjour, mais en meme temps j'etais contente de ouf qu'il dise ca. d'habitude il rentre juste pour toucher mes affaires et me saouler, je savais meme pas qu'il racontait mes matchs. apres il m'a demande de lui montrer un tir et j'ai accepte sans negocier dix trucs avant. il a lance dans le mauvais sens et on a rigole, puis maman a dit pas de ballon dans le salon donc fin de ma carriere d'entraineuse
Spent an hour at the allotment tying up plants and came home with that pleasant warmth across my back which means I've actually moved, rather than held the same lean over a teaching bench. My left thumb objected to the last few knots, so I stopped pretending they all required my personal attention. Washing my hands afterwards took some time; soil finds places a glove inspection would never reveal. I could still feel the pressure of the ties against my fingertips while chopping dinner. Not sore, just used. The cat wanted lifting onto the chair and received a clear explanation that he has four serviceable legs.

The grandson said the best part of our trip to see the old forest was the ferry. Forty years of trees and I was beaten by a boat, which I have mentioned to him more than once. Truth is I was a bit disappointed. Wanted him to see what I'd done there, though six is a poor age to appreciate decades of planting. Then he drew the ferry with the two of us on it and asked if I'd keep it. Aye, I said, of course. Felt rather foolish about my disappointment after that, but not entirely rid of it. The drawing's on the fridge. He's given me enormous arms and his own head is bigger than the wheelhouse. Fair likeness of the day.

Two buses came together while I was waiting, and I caught myself thinking this always happens, exactly the sort of claim I spend the workday asking people to qualify. Of course I remember standing there watching an empty road longer than I remember the ordinary days when one turns up. But that doesn't make the wait imaginary either. I'm interested in the gap between a route looking acceptable over a whole day and one person's trip being miserable at the same time each week. Dad would enjoy hearing me admit that an average doesn't settle his complaint. I'm not calling him tonight. He'll declare victory before I finish the sentence, and then we'll be at it for an hour.

Trying to name the hot sauce without putting another car wreck joke on the bottle. Daughter says every idea sounds like something you should keep away from food. She's probably right about Deductible. I want people to know which jar is hot before they open it, not need a policy explanation after. Put colored tape on the lids for now and wrote the ingredients clearly. That's the useful part. Dad suggested his name, since he supplied some peppers. Guy contributes four peppers and wants controlling interest. No final label yet. Got enough sauce for the block, which means plenty of people to tell me the name is wrong.

Meu namorado foi embora depois do jantar e eu fiquei contente de ficar sozinha, pronto falei. Gosto dele, gosto quando chega fazendo piada e gosto também de espalhar as pernas no sofá sem ninguém perguntando o que vamos assistir. Não é briga nem nada. Minha mãe ia achar que estou arrumando defeito onde não tem, então nem contei. Fiquei vendo novela e comentando por áudio com ela, o que já não é tão sozinha assim kkk. Antes de dormir mandei mensagem pra ele avisar quando chegasse. Chegou, respondeu uma bobagem, eu ri. Foi bom do começo ao fim, inclusive a parte que cada um ficou na sua casa.
نزلت أمشي بوسط البلد ومعي الكاميرا، وأول طلعة درجات ذكرتني إني قاعدة أغلب الوقت قدام اللابتوب، نفسي صار أسرع بكثير من الخطوات. كنت بدي أصوّر مدخل بيت من فوق، فطلعت وأنا حاملة الشنطة على كتف واحد ووقفت بالنص أبدّلها للثاني. بعد شوي صار المشي أسهل، وحسيت بدفا بوجهي رغم إن الهوا كان بارد بالظل. شربت مي وأنا واقفة وأكلت شي من الطريق، مش القهوة المعتادة بدل الأكل. لما رجعت كانت رجلي تعبانة بس راسي أخف، وصار ريح الشارع عالق بطرف الشال. عندي شغل كثير الليلة ومع هيك جسمي بده يضل يمشي شوي، غريب كيف بقدر أقعد عشر ساعات وبعدين أستغرب إني نسيت هالإحساس.
