Some Semblance of Quiet
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
Today, my folks left to see if they could trade up their lease car. With any luck, they will return with a nice looking car as all. As of now, I just finished passing the little paper over all the household items. Every Wednesday and Saturday we clean up the house. This may seem overkill for people who only clean on spring.
Still, we come from a long family tradition of people who used to clean daily. Twice a week is just being lazy as all. Then again, it is not as if we have a lot of stuff to clean. We tend to be a bit minimalistic. We do not like having a lot of clutter. This is part of the reason why we did not mind having a garage.
When are we ever going to buy so much junk as all. People tend to go crazy with buying nonsense. It is not a critique on consumerism or whatever. Rather, people must ask the question if they are really going to enjoy a certain item for decades to come. If the answer is no, then you can easily do without it.
People tend to make a bit too many impulsive purchases. Then again, I do have a couple of impulsive purchases myself. The last one I regret was the electric guitar. I have not used it since I bought it like a decade ago. It still makes an interesting conversation piece.
It looks good, is what I am trying to say. I already draw and write. I think I have enough hobbies and talents as it is. I also do website stuff. This is enough as far as my silly nonsense are concerned. I hope you like my new pool photo or whatever.
I need new flowers to photograph as all. I think people are getting bored of the same ones, I suppose. Then again, it could just be my imagination as all. One thing I haven’t done in a long time is showcase some drawings of mine.
