Old hag with green fingers

Met an old woman who knows my parents-in-law by chance in the town centre this morning. Nice to know that her throat operation had gone well. Found myself sounding like a nosy old hag when chatting with her. Asking about how it was at hospital, etc. Must be getting old.

Painted the fence in the front garden for the first time. Easier than I had thought. Of course a clumsy person like me had to drop a small brush in the paint pot and had to fish it out. Then, realised that I had been doing the job without gloves (again!). Got green fingers without touching a plant.
While painting, a black car tooted the horn and a young fella waved at me. I couldn't see his face clearly, but who the hell is he?? My nephew? Maybe. Not sure.
Can't understand why my hubby used to take all morning to finish the same job. It took me only just over an hour and the result was the same. Yeah, girls can paint better and quicker!
