Time

[flowersfriend]

I really enjoy this board....but find it really difficult to spend time joining in. There is sooooo much to do around the garden and in the house and in between I have to eat and sleep. How do you manage it? I am beginning to think I inhabit 'slow land' and someone or something keeps stealing my time.......
I really wish I could knit time. Someone tell me how....

I will look for a pattern for you FF ;D

I only do things in the house if it is raining, (apart from washing and cooking of course!) The rest has to wait for me to decide that the dust is thick enough to make it worth getting the duster out I believe we should all do what makes us happy in life (within reason) - and for me that is not housework!

Beware of the Timebandits

Oh it's quite simple FF, I make a point of spending a bit of time at the computer while I'm having breakfast, and I leave the computer on all day and on the occasions when I walk past I click to see if there are any new messages. If there are I spend a moment checking them and sometimes responding. ;D

i have my toast here i come back when my little ones have their nap late morning,'cos i have to be quiet, and i pop back late afternoon, while tea is cooking, i have been known to burn the carrots ;D

Funny thing time........I should have loads of it now I'm not working. But, somehow, somewhere, someone is stealing it from me!!!

As you say Ruthie--Funny thing is Time--I have found the older you get the quicker it goes--So Time just flies past me-- ;D

[Missredhead]

If I remember I switch on the 'puter when I get home in the morning and leave it on, when I stop for a cuppa I check to see if there are any messages, Then in the evening if theres not much on telly I sit at the 'puter again, .........

Agree here Biggy; it doesnt seem too long that the shops were selling Christmas cards and now they are doing it again - it will soon be upon us

Time for me is precious and I try not to spend too much of it on the puter as I am on one all day at the office

Jenny--I dont watch much Television -- there doesn't seem to be many good programmes so I spend my time -(on an evening) on the computer but not always on GWD-- ;D

[flowersfriend]

I guess everyone is in the same boat......its interesting how everyone finds the time to go on their computers. I think I better take a lesson from Tig, it makes sense and its a good excuse for keeping up to date on GWD. Do less housework!
If you did find a pattern Tig I spose it would take time to knit so defeat the object?

I don't get as much time here as I'd like. I get on every now and then and usually read lots of posts and answer a few!

Wish I had more time really as there are so many nice people here and it is so friendly (unlike some parenting boards I have been on )

It seems a shame that parenting boards are unfriendly.....how can people parent if they aren't friendly. Children learn by example, don't they?

You would think so wouldn't you, but believe me some of the rows on there...

There are 1 or 2 subject guranteed to start a row everytime they are posted!

Much friendlier here

[Biggles]

Definately more friendlier on here--No 'Clicks' but dont you think this has alot to do with how this Board is Run?

I actually spend a lot of time on YouTube and am amazed that they dont have a moderator - foul language is accepted, so it seems

[flowersfriend]

Jenny; perhaps people are trying to shock?..... I am not a prude and swear from time to time. I think though, alot of swearing demonstrates lack of imagination and possibly intelligence as people can't think of other words to use.
