"When it rains, it pours!"

Thanks neighbor Dan for that sentiment! I really needed you to say that like I need a hole in the head.

Didn't I say that this week was going to get better? HaHaHa! It probably got worse just because I said that!

Found out today from a classmate that this class that I registered for in the Spring, a class that I have to have to graduate has been changed to a different time and day!!! WHAT!!! I spent hours upon hours searching and searching to make my whole school/work schedule work out next semester! I had it perfect! I was actually very happy with it! Now I'm going to have to work the whole thing out again.

Went to class even though I didn't want to this morning...drove home, got out o' car, got mail...got a letter from work saying that they overpaid me and are going to be taking the money out of my paychecks...and THERE COULD BE INTEREST CHARGED!!! Am I reading this right? Am I really going to be charged interest on money that I never even expected to get...IT'S THEIR FAULT!!! Thank you, IRS, thank you very f-ing much!


Sitting in car reading this mail...put key in the ignition, turn key...hmmm...nothing...Jumpin Jesus on a Pogo Stick!!!...Now my car is dead, dead, dead!!! I guess no tanning, no getting Josh's B-day present, no returning Gabby's shoes, no grocery shopping, no gym, no nothin' for the rest of the day! Had to wait by my car at the front office for an hour for the tow truck!!! Now my dad is going to have to pick up Gabby and me and take us to my mom's so we can use her car for the weekend...so I can drive Gabby to her dad's...BECAUSE I'M STILL GOING TO HAVE MY RELAXING WEEK OFF IF IT KILLS ME, DAMN IT!!!

I don't think either one is listening at this point.

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 ...
