Josh . . . Just Plain Dumb?

Josh and I went to breakfast at Cracker Barrell this morning. I'd never been before even though it's like 2 minutes from my apartment. Josh swore that it would be better than IHOP or any other such place. Anyways...we waited like 45 minutes for a table, but it was fine because they have this store that you can look around, and they had all their Christmas stuff out. We finally sat down, and Josh showed me this game that they had sitting on the table. It's shaped like a triangle, and has golf tees stuck in holes all over it with one empty hole. The object is to "jump" over each golf tee and remove it...ok I don't realy want to explain the whole thing...the point is that the instructions said that if you left 4 or more tees on the game board then you were an ignoramous...hahaha...Josh's first try...this is exactly what he got (and he had played it before)...I then took my very first try at this game, and removed all but one...which according to the game board makes me a genius...Josh of course couldn't stand this and tried again...this time?...he removed more, but still not enough...the game board said his score meant he was "just plain dumb"!

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

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...
