Having Fun Is Key For Me

I have never stopped being in touch with childlike me So there is no end to the happy person I can be. I dance in delight although a bit slower now I paint goblins, witches, dragons, even a cow. I dabble in colors, making every day fantastic and fun. I pencil cartoon pirates and warrior women and castles in the sun. I draw magical unicorns wearing pink and purple stripes. Why don’t you do any laundry? My husband often gripes. It’s not fun! I tell him. Having fun I the key thing for me. While he does the laundry, I pay word games and watch old TV. I like I Love Lucy and Andy Griffith and Carol Burnett the best. I like writing poems and painting; he can do the rest.

I told him once "I am 35 years ahead of you cleaning and cooking and doing all that other stuff I hate to do, and I am done". He understands it even better now, fifteen years later. I have not done the grocery shopping or laundry in the past fifteen years, and I have no idea how to run the dishwasher now or the last one either.
