Well, TOODAY is just too full of chores and unfinished business and unplanted seed and the unswept patio and the unwritten end to a Substack for mama’s blog and so many UNs that we just have to pick up our bootstraps and get started on un-doing those uns, haha.
Why boot straps, mama wonders. But mama wonders at lots of sayings and their origins. That research is un-finished, too. Oh, boy. Just imagine how many sayings there are whose origins we don’t know….arggggh.
So, I’m under my nice cloud cover, as you can see, and solving everything intelligently with a snooze…
GET MOVIN’, MAMA!!
Ah yes……tedium is tedious and housecleaning is insidious!
Hugs, Pam
Snoozetime, Teddy…put that vacuum away NOW.
The Lady has been doing some cleaning out around here and getting rid of stuff no longer needed.
Such fun, non? Where did it all come from, mama asks!
A new broom sweeps clean, Loulou. Now that’s a saying for the times we live in. I hope your mama gets everything done that she needs to.
Well, she’s in the middle of planting seeds that can go directly into the soil in the garden. Cross fingers. She’s never done that, always started in pots…
Sometimes humans need to get to work on tasks they don’t want to do. XO
HAHA…as in all day long some days…
There are special dictionaries of word and phrase origins, I’d love to have one when I start thinking about thinks like this.
We actually have one, a book of origins of such things and there are many, inexpensive.

Sometimes you just have to stop and rest.
Oui oui oui…absolutement!
There sure is a lot of undoing to be done!
