I apologize for being away from the blog for a while. I was dealing with some health issues. Nothing that will kill me and nothing that is anyone's business. I don't want to get into the details because I don't want a lot of unsolicited advice.
Anyway, I noticed today that I, along with most females, have a unique ability to see things that others cannot. No, not x-ray vision that would get me a job in airport security, that would be too easy. And no, not the kind of vision that can see through scratch-off lottery tickets, no such luck. Instead, it seems like only I can see the mess that is left all over the house. How do I know this? Because no one else sees these things. I can tell by there lack of actions.
I walk through the house and lo and behold there are a legion of miscellaneous socks strewn about. But only I can see them. They sit about completely invisible to everyone else. Except other women who would come into my house and wonder why my house is such a mess.
I stroll to the kitchen and notice that all of the spoons we own are dirty. I even notice that I need to put them in the dishwasher. Because no one else will see this until the morning when they want cereal.
I am the only one who can see school forms. OK, not all the time. I may have forgotten a few of those.
Why can't I see the couch that everyone else is sitting on?
