    Challenges for Piskie

    You said you would help me get through 'it' - so here goes please thank you....

    I estimate I will have approx 103* days until SD returns and I also know, from experience, that I will spend a good portion of the first few weeks bouncing off the walls, walking from room to room, picking up something, putting down something.

    So, can you each give me a challenge that I can try and rise to - no matter how small?

    Nice peeps


    *not allowing for delays on return due to AOG's

        He'll be due back on my Birthday then....or the day after.....so you could plan my surprise

        Don't tell me though, or I'll know.

        No - do tell me, I don't like surprises.

        Oh, you got me now......confused.com

          Your Challenge, should you choose to accept it...

          Right - I'm up for that.

          From the top:

          1) knit something - Flums got a pattern for woolly hats for charities.
          2) pick a list of 10 books you would like to/really should read. That's one every 10 days, should do nicely.
          3) really get into a self help book - in my experience they all fall down when you have to consider someone else - you don't have to consider anyone for a while, so you can have cabbage soup for a week, or do yoga and chanting every morning for half an hour
          4) do dance classes & amaze him with your belly dancing when he gets back
          5) take a short course in creative writing/lacemaking/chinese cookery/birdwatching - details in local library
          6) go to one 'event' a week - townswomens guild/WI/Mothers union (don't laugh)/Soroptomists etc etc
          .
          .
          .
          I'll be back with more later

                          Have to decline that one, sadly, we aren't allowed them in MQ gardens - but I will put that one into my 'what we will do after 18 Dec 2015 file

                              I have to admit to being nervous about the sewing/knitting ones - cos I don't own any needles and wouldn't be sure what to do with them if I did and SD does any 'mending' (he's trained)

                              Mind you - seeing as my BP was 149/100 this arvo maybe I should learn this gentle stuff - but I'm probably more a kick-boxing type, but nice with it
