Shouldn't you be doing something else?
 

Are you doing what you are supposed to be doing? Or should you be doing something else?

I only ask because I came up to the back room -where the computer lives, with a view to sorting out the place. At the moment the place is full of - well, not junk exactly, but stuff that is not currently in use. I am sure everyone must have somewhere like that in their home - though my hubby doesn't think so.
We are having rellies over from Oz again. They are only going to stay for 3 nights this time(as opposed to 6 weeks) and this means i have to clear the place and turn the sofa from a sofa into a bed.
I have been putting off this job for weeks, but as their visit is only about 9 days away i am going to have to get my bum into gear......though it is proving to be a hard job.

What should you be doing right now?

Should be mowing the lawn, but it's just been hailstoning, so I can't! :D:D

Oh well, you have a really good excuse there.....don't want you to be fried.
I haven't got any excuse.......except that it seems like a monumental task and there doesn't appear to be anyone else up for it.
I wouldn't care, but they are hubby's rellies and he's laid out on the sofa like the queen of Sheba (without the make up).

I should be tidying the house because we've got people coming round to view it in a short while - instead I'm on here.

See.....I knewthere would be other folk out there that were doing stuff they shouldn't.....and not doing the stuff they should be doing.
i feel so much better knowing that.:D

I should be outside sorting the car out, it's raining so thats out.
I have volunteered to do jobs indoors but my misses has told me to 'Leave that alone, be careful with that' etc, etc, etc.
I am now in front of the PC and when the rain stops she can go out and wash the ?????? car.

It's now glorious sunshine and the hail is just a distant memory. However, as I've pointed out to Mrs H, the grass is far too wet to mow...so I'm STILL not doing what I should be doing! :D

Re: Shouldn't you be doing something else?
 

Well, I have done a bit of moving stuff around...not that you could tell by looking, there is some major furniture shifting to be done....like moving the computer and all it's attachments over to the other side of the room......swinging the sofa around so that it can be opened up into a bed.....moving a clothing rail. Heck......loads of stuff. I think I will do a bit every day until the rellies arrive. I reckon if I try to do it all at once I'm going to bust my chops...no sense in that is there? Well.....answer me someone!

Of course not, Marg! By the way, is Mr P still relaxing on the sofa, or has he disappeared to the pub (something I'm thinking of doing at this moment in time)?
