This blog has a short life...

Sorry, but I will NOT be posting to this blog anymore.

* Cooking

I am not a fan of cooking. I used to enjoy it, but not now, in my later years. (this is my second post on food, guess I really would like to change that in my life !!!)

What if....and how would it be... to have an intercom in my house to some magical kitchen and chef and all I had to do was press the intercom, place my order, and shortly my food would be brought to me. Boy, I would like that !!!

* Colds, the Flu, and other mild illnesses

I am no different than anyone else in regards to catching a cold, having the flu, or coming down with any other mild illness. It is inconvenient, messy, miserable and I just don't have time to be sick.

What if......there was a 2 hour max time on having these illnesses. After the 2 hours were up, I would be feeling wonderful again. Hey, I can easily endure the illness for 2 hours, can't you ?

Returning

Dear Readers....I have been ill for many months but I am back and hoping to post on my blogs again.

* Over-eating

I have a real struggle with food. I have always been a big eater and the older I am getting the harder it is to loose weight.

What if…..my body was constructed so that after, say 10 mouthfuls, I would suddenly feel full and satisfied and be able to shove my plate away.

*Reaching things high up

I am not very tall, only 5 ft. 4 in. Many times when I need something on a top shelf, I have to go get a chair or stool to stand on to reach what I want.

What if….. when I needed something high up, that I had the ability of my arms being able to stretch as long as I needed….kinda like Elastagirl on “The Incredibles”.

*Cooking and cleaning

I do not like to cook and clean up afterwards.

What if….. we had a futuristic machine that we could just type in the name of the food we wanted and “presto” out it came….and then we had a robot to do our cleaning for us.

*Aging

As I age, I am not doing it very gracefully. I worry, fret, fear, complain, have self pity, and deny. I just want to skip the whole process.

What if....when we decide we have had enough of the aging process, we can just say, “that’s enough, I am ready to be “poofed” into heaven now”.....and we go.

*Getting back up out of bed

I’m lying in bed trying to get to sleep and all of a sudden I remember that I didn’t lock the outside doors. Ohhhh, I don’t want to get back up, I’m so comfortable.

What if…..just by concentrating hard and imagining myself getting up and locking the doors…that some special unseen matter or force can take my place and do the job for me.

*I need half an hour more of daylight

I am sitting on our back deck reading a good book, totally enjoying the refreshing light breeze of the early evening air. It is slowly getting darker to where I am having trouble reading, but I don’t want to stop and go inside yet.

What if…..just by wishing for 30 minutes more of daylight to continue my outdoor enjoyment a little longer, my wish would be instantly granted….but no one else would notice the change.

*The traffic in town

It is a very bad day, I am rushed to get to my doctor appointment but this traffic is moving so slowly and I always seem to manage to hit all the red lights. I am going to be late for sure.

What if.......I had the ability to stop and freeze movement all around me, except for myself, for a short period of time? Then I could breeze through all the frozen traffic, weaving in and out if need be, and sail through the non-functioning traffic lights. When I reached the doctor’s office, I could again use my ability to unfreeze all movement and things would resume as before, with no consequences or upsets to anyone.
