I am BLOG obsessed

I am addicted to blogs. I wake up every morning, take Gabby to school, grab a coffee and bagel (yeah, that will stop...um...soon...hopefully?...shit!), and then I can't wait to get back home so I can do my morning surfing through blogs before I get ready for school. However, there seems to be little or no new blippity blogging going on! I am very disappointed. I need nutrition for my brain. Snap to it my little blogger friends!!! (kidding...well...maybe half-way kidding!). Do you think there's such thing as Bloggers Anonymous?

My child thinks she's very funny: Last night - pick up Gabby from parent's house. Parent's have a story to tell that they think is hilarious. My dad was doing Gabby's spelling homework for her. He was helping with the words "mad" and "made" . . . he made her spell both and show the distinction in the vowel sound . . . then he was playing around and asked her to spell "maid" . . . Gabby's response?, "I don't know how to spell "mother"!"

Thank you, thank you ... *takes a bow*

The only time I don't post is if the comment section is busy. Then I figure people can read the comments for new stuff. Otherwise, it gets too overwhelming for people who aren't daily readers. :)

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...

Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
