Believe it or not, some people actually feel a sense of comfort from work. Usually these people have different levels of work: easy, moderate, and hard. Easy work is vacation work. It’s still work, mind you, but it can be fun and even relaxing. Do you think so?
Dodgeball made something of a comeback a few years back, especially among adults. I haven’t heard much about it in recent years. It seems to have fallen out of favor with spell check too. That or I can’t spell. Nothing new there.
Homemade clothes can be a very nice gift. They can also be uncomfortable sometimes… both the situation and the clothes. Have you ever had to wear a crazy homemade gift out of obligation to the giver?
