Trying Something New

I made a vow to myself that this week I would try new things.  No specific category of things just something I have never done before.  Today that ended up using the electric buffer to wax my car.  Stupid right.  But it was actually fun.  My poor hubby has not learned yet that you do not detail your car in Florida in July unless maybe you had a septic truck spill over on it.  After 8 a.m. the humidity and sun are sucking the moisture from everything living.  So from 8 am until about 4pm we were detailing the car.  I say we very loosly since I was making constant trips back into the house to do other various chores(avoiding work) but I did help.  Also after owning a wagon for almost 14 years now this was the first time I have climbed into the back of it all the way.  New experience number two.  Now I don't feel guilty for all of these years of shooting hubby down whenever he suggested us going "parking" somewhere.  After laying on my back in that thing cleaning the ceiling for 30 minutes I know neither of us are in any kind of shape to try automobile acrobatic fooling around.  Watching the look on his face though when I was waxing the car made me realize he has no idea how physically hard I work sometimes and the type of equipment I use on my job.  He even told me he was surprised he was by how well I handled it.  Now my son had new experience also when this was the first time I let him go out with a friend from church who is older and picked him up in car and drove them.  One more little apron string cut.  So feeling like this was pretty productive day..not relaxing but oh well.  Not sure what to do tomorrow but I am thinking something a little more adventurous.  This whole being 40ish thing has finally become a good thing.  It took a little longer than I wanted it to but I am cool with it now.  Think I want to make glass.  It just now occured to me yes I want to make glass.  Have ALWAYS wanted to learn and I know there are places in the area to do it so why not.  This is why I blog.  Sometimes you have to put your thoughts out there and look at them to understand them better.  I am crazy happy right now but I must leave here to find out the when and where for tomorrow.  Will update on how it goes.
