I have many Random thoughts.. here are only a few:
- How come weeds can grow anywhere, and you have to work to grow the flowers?
- I wonder why we have such a hard time getting paint to stay on one side of our house.. we made sure it was dry, we used primer, than the paint.. and it still peals within a year or so??
- And how come we learn languages when we are very young, and find it so hard to learn a new language when we are grown and mature?
That last one is sooo true! I never understand why the schools wait until middle school or high school to start teaching the kid's a foreign language. I say they need to start in kindergarten when their little minds are like sponges!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! I love the first one!And I must say, I have wondered about that a lot. Perhaps we should just give in - stop planting flowers and cultivate weed beds! That way, we would all look like amazing gardeners. Hmmm..I think I am onto something! Gotta go and pull up some flowers - damn things!
ReplyDeleteI agree with 1 & 3, sorry about #2! They really should teach foreign language at a younger age, I may even start trying to teach Jimmy some Spanish or German. I really wish flowers grew as easily as weeds (and grass, for some reason, it will NOT stay out of one of my beds!) Have a great night!
ReplyDeleteVery good things to ponder! I have tried to teach myself Spanish for years and all I can do is ask where the bathroom is and tell everyone I love them. Could be helpful in some situations but I think I need much more than that when I'm in Mexico in a nearly no English area. Could someone answer this question for us?
ReplyDeleteAt my son's elementary school, they all have Spanish class - starting from pre-school on. I've always picked up languages fairly easily - I think some people just do. However, I stink at math, so maybe that's a trade-off! ;-)
ReplyDeleteOur old minds shut down... I so LONG to learn different languages.. but after 2 years of Spanish - I'm good at saying "Hello beautiful friend"... Yeah, I'm talented like that!
ReplyDeleteWhat is it with weeds and their ability to grow rampant? ;) Wonder if that side of the house gets the most rain/wind battering as opposed to the other sides... I would love to be able to learn a different language - I've always wanted to learn French, but it seems so complicated...or I'm just too old...LOL! :)
