A Day Off


The ladies of the 1800's probably
would have knitted a pair of socks,
baked a batch of bread, 
fed the livestock, beat the rugs,
and hauled firewood 
all on their day off....


I spent the day on the phone,
and on the computer, 
heated up my leftovers 
in the microwave, 
took some photos with
my digital camera,
and played with my 
new cell phone....

Life is good in 2011!
(complicated, but good)

Lisa, I know just what you mean, my mother worked that hard even in the 1980's yet when she was a farm wife. Now she spends her days a little less strenuously. Oh, how times change!

And still we complain!!! We don't know how good we have it.

We definitely are spoiled by comparison, aren't we?
