I really don’t want to work today
I’d simply much rather stay home
The library can manage without me I’m sure
Now where did I put that phone?
I’ll call them and tell them a little white lie
Who in the world would it harm?
I’ll tell them my head hurts, my tummy’s all wrong
And I’ve possibly broken my arm
My car’s broken down or got a flat tyre
My house is in need of repair
The bathroom is flooded, the kitchen’s on fire
And I can’t do a thing with my hair
So I simply must stay at home today
It’s surely the right thing to do
Then I can craft and create and play
And then I won’t feel so blue
Sigh. Another work day ahead. So happy I’m not working this weekend. The only thing worse than working on a Friday is knowing you have to come in again on Saturday! Happy work day to all of you who have to do the 9-5 thing today – we’re all in this together. And for those of you who have the luxury of staying at home, crafting, sewing, painting, creating and being artistic and “authentic” – lucky, lucky you! Tell us how you did it and how we can do it too!
Have a happy end-of-the-week everybody 🙂
PS GIVEAWAY! As a “thank goodness it’s the weekend” special, I’m going to give away a pair of Violet Annie earrings made by moi, to one lucky person who leaves me a comment. Figured it was about time I started giving back and sharing the love a little. Just leave me a comment and let me know what colour you like best (before Feb 19). The winner will be randomly chosen. 🙂
I hear ya on the staying at home! I like purple best!
I think “hermit” should be an accepted career choice. I could totally work that! 🙂 Thanks for your comment.
I love blue! (and I hear you on wishing I could just stay home and craft all day!)
I love blue too! 🙂 And I think we should all get together and organise an International “Stay at Home” day… 🙂
Going to work has been getting in the way of my crafting too. But I DO have to say that I like the regular pay and benefits like paid vacation. Sigh.
Anyway, thanks for the giveaway and good luck to all entrants! I’m with Mary: I love blue.
Yes, work does get in the way of things but I guess unemployment does too! Think blue might be a popular choice! 🙂
yes!! more blue! 😉
I used to stay home when my kids were little. I had more time to craft, but truthfully, I was too busy just being a mom and crafting was hard to do! Now I work full time and since my time is more precious, I do make the time to craft, finish projects and start new ones.
I love any color…really like earthy ones and purple, too!
You sound much more organised than me! And I don’t even have kids! Well done you for getting things finished – I shall try harder!
….and….(drum roll…) you are the winner of my little giveaway for this post. I will contact you shortly for your details. Congrats! And thanks for commenting. 🙂
