Oh, I'm Just Piddling...



Years ago, I remember reading an article about how men and women are different...Really? I did not see that coming... Anyway, one example given was the differences in how they shop. Women browse, while men "bag" the object of their desire and leave.

Well, newsflash, the differences do not stop there. The other day I'm piddling around in the yard...My husband is watching me and begins to "organize" my work for me...

Pops -"Why don't you put everything in one container instead of walking back and forth."

Me -"Cuz, I'm just piddling around..."

Pops -" Yeah, but if you just put all this in that, you could just make one trip.."

Me -"Yeah, but I'm just piddling ...

Pops -"What???"

Me " I'm not trying to organize a work load; I'm off; this is my leisure time...I'm just piddling around!"

To the male of the species, I leave the definition of "Piddle" - verb.
When the female of the species aimlessly browses around the yard or a room, ...looking at this...moving that....then going back to rearrange it all again... To piddle, piddling!

Please be advised that it is recommended that the female not be interrupted during this activity. As unorganized and random as it appears, she is relaxing.

I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it. ~Author Unknown


I'm in the pantry looking for a snack...Me..." Where are all the nuts?" E..." Let's see, one got married and divorced, another one got married, one is at college and then there's the rest of us..." I see... so everyone's a comedian. I just wanted a snack...

He is right. We are a bunch of nuts. Present company excluded...

WHO GAVE THIS GUY AN A+ ?

Irreverent, I know, I have just got to make it through these classes a few more weeks. Plus, there could be a bit of truth here...

"ARITHMETIC" by Carl Sandburg


"Arithmetic is where numbers fly like pigeons in and out of your head.

Arithmetic tells you how many you lose or win if you know how many you had before you lost or won.


Arithmetic is seven eleven all good children go to heaven-or five six bundle of sticks.

Arithmetic is numbers you squeeze from your head to your hand to your pencil to your paper till you get the answer.

Arithmetic is where the answer is right and everything is nice and you can look out the window and see the blue sky....or the answer is wrong and you have to start all over and try again and see how it comes out this time."

Wow, I couldn't have said it better myself. Guess who is about to the end of their mathematical rope...
