I am low functioning right now. Trying to take my mind off of lyme.
Thought I would come here and swap howdies.
I was thinking that if I were higher functioning, I would _____________ for fun ____________.
Mind you my idea of fun has become pretty simple with lyme.
1. One thing I would do is water my plants.
2. Another fun thing I would like to do is go back to that stream/creek I saw yesterday.
But, i would like to have someone with me that does't talk a lot and that I feel safe with if my health goes south.
I'd like to be able to take a hike up the stream for a short ways with Rosie off leash. I'd also like Rosie to come when I call and stay in sight.
That is a tricky one. I have never had her in the open like that nor around water so it will be a new thing.
I'd like to go about the same time I was there yesterday evening too. It was so much more cooler there. It would be great if I were to see the double rainbow again.
3. I'd like to read a good book. one that takes my mind to another place.
That is about all the fun I can think of for now.
How about you. What would you do for fun?

If I was able
I would work on my art and finally finish something.
I would start collecting rejection notices from galleries.
I would walk on the beach at dusk and night under the stars sand squishing between my toes.
I would go to a poetry reading somewhere.
I would take a sculpture class with clay so I had acess to a kiln.
I would go to art muesums and galleries.
I would go out and get the mail without having to take a break to catch my breath.
I would put a signifigant dent in the stack of books I keep intending to read and then replentish my stack.
I would design and build a kitty playground like thing for my cat.
I would go hunt for more dandelions.

I would like to be a fly on the wall of the White House and see what they are treating President Bush with.
But for fun, I would like to go on a vacation with all my kids. For the first time ever.

Okay, on the "Today" show this morning they had a segment on the beautiful "Yellowstone" national park. I live relatively close and NEVER been there.
Course I live closer to the Black Hills and havent explored them either,,,cept for the presidential faces. Seems like a great drive,,,just to look around.
And South Dakota Badlands,,and Custers last stand. And Grand Canyon,,And red rock park. AND redwood forrest, and glacier natl park.
I see a LONG vacation in my future!! Now I need somebody to SHARE it with!!

Azure and Don....I am on your bandwagons!
Don't know if I put it in my first post, but I would watch the shooting stars in the August Sky.
Best time of the year to do that.
Mother nature watered my plants on the ledge yesterday.
I was able to water the few on the patio but it was more of a chore instead of fun because I didn't have the strength needed.
I did drive down the road to find the verde river that is 8 miles on dirt road.
But, got stopped at the beginning...this is twice now.
first time a big truck was doing something which was holding everyone up so I turned around.
second time there was a sign about not crossing if flooded in the area I was just about getting ready to cross.
it was a big pool of water I was trying to decide whether or not to cross it when a truck with much bigger wheels came by and crossed it with a runnign start.
They almost got stuck. That answered my question. i turned around.
Another time.

If I were able I would return to the San Juan Islands and go hiking to a waterfall and then go whale watching. Hiker

Hiker,
I did a search for San jaun Islands. I was not aware of them.
Sounds great. I know at one time I was looking into Bellingham as a possible place to live.
Hope we both get to explore them eventually.
Heading up the coast..CA, Oregon and Washington are on my list of things I would like to do when I have the time, money and health.
San Juan Islands is now included in that.
Alaska and Canada too.
So many beautiful places to see.

If I was well, I'd clean the house. I am never really well enough to vacuum. So the house rarely gets vacuumed. :\
For fun, I'd exercise, as I was always big into exercise and loved it.
I'd just be extremely happy to feel "normal" again. I am so tired of being so emotional and sick and sad every day.
