I don't think that I will ever think about vacuuming the carpet - in quite the same way anymore. And who ever said that life ends at 40 - has never reached that point - or is already half dead. LOL So a few years ago - I had my grandchildren and their parents staying with me for awhile. One evening when I was having a particularly amourous time with my partner - I forgot that we had kids in the house. I got a little carried away, and must have made enough noise to disturb the grand kids. The next day, they asked their mother (my daughter), what was wrong with Grandma ? Is she alright ? What was she doing in her bedroom last night ? Their mother did not know what to say to them. Obviously she had an idea but did not want to say. So she told them that Grandma was vacuuming the carpet in her bedroom. The kids accepted her explanation - all except for the oldest boy, who said, "I don't like it when Grandma Vacuums." "I wish she wouldn't do it so late at night." I was most embarassed when I heard about this incident and the comments too. So, no, I won't be vacuuming anymore when the grand kids are here. They finally moved into their new house. So now, I can pull out my Hoover at any time, and yell "EUREKA"! - whenever I want - without worrying about a Listening audience down stairs. And to the rest of my audience that reads this - "Yes, there is Life after 40". The Best Kind. ``````` |
