Pointless Things I Do:

• i clean before the housekeeper comes.
• i hire a housekeeper.
• i pray.
• i paint my toenails or even worse.. i pay someone else to do it.
  
• i purchase Zout, Shout and other stain removing liquids in a vain attempt to keep our clothes looking new and vibrant.
• i think that some day we will have more disposable income than we do today.
• i speak French to Lucy..or what I recall to be French which is now more likely Spanglench (Spanish, English and French... Frengspan perhaps?).
• i pick up paint chips and design magazines.
• i write my thoughts down for everyone else to see.
• i tell my mom that we are fine. i tell my in-laws that we are great.
  
• i sort things like this: 'keep', 'toss', donate' and 'sell on eBay' .
• i keep thinking that any day now we are going to "hit our stride" with our careers, our marriage and our kids.
• i plant flower seeds in a garden without functioning sprinklers.
• i have always believed that hard work coupled with all the smarts you can muster will get you pretty close to where you want to go in life.
  
• i have two bundt cake pansand an angel food cake pan, and a commercial chafing dish in my pantry /baking area.. and have no foreseeable occasion to use any of them.
• i blog when I am in distress.
