"Happy Happy, Joy Joy . . . "

I did it. I switched trainers. The Limp Wimp hurt my back the other day, and I'm dying in pain. It's one thing to put up with his nasty words, but I'm not risking injury to my body! So, on Monday I will begin training with one of the biggest black men I have ever seen in my life (and he's cute, too), Ray. Called Aaron the Beast and let him know about the switch. He said this guy is really good. He's been a trainer for a long time. Well why in the hell didn't he give me to him instead then, so I didn't have to live the last few weeks in horror???!!! I guess this guy just moved to my gym from another gym. Anyhoo . . . I haven't even worked out with the guy yet, but I can just tell that things will be better, and while I still miss Aaron, this dreaded feeling I've been having in the pit of my stomach is gone. I'm actually a little excited. It can only be better. Nothing could be worse than the Limp Wimp. Aaron also, once again, promised to get down here and give me my comp seesions on the weekends. I've been pissed because he hasn't done it, but he told me not to tell anyone, but he's been having to come in on the weekends and do community service. Oops! I think I just told the world! So, as soon as he's done with that, he'll give up the comps!

On the AOC front. OMG! Things are going so well. We've been having more conversations . . . via phone and IM, but that's better than emails. At least they're actual "conversations". Told the AOC about my problems with the Limp Wimp. He said it sounded like he had "small dick syndrome". Hmmm . . . understatement of the year.

School front: Not ready to talk about it yet. Yes . . . it is that bad.

Can I hear a big fat YIPPEE! I hope your new trainer works out (ha ha) better than your old one. Good decision.

Yippee. I'm so excited for you!
Jeanette - Big fat Yippees across the board!!! I'm a little nervous about walking into the gym though. All of this trainer switching was done behind the Wimp's back. I'm not sure I can face him. I really do hate hurting people's feelings, or whatever.

But,my mom asked, "Do you like him?" NO. "Do you care if he likes you?" NO...well I do care a little. I want everyone to like me. But, no, not enough to care.

Am I the only one that thinks it's hard to find that place where you really don't care what people think of you?

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...

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...

Constant Construction

I don't know how non-ADD brains, non-anxiety riddled bodies handle living in this type of chaos, but I can tell you that with ADD and anxiety, this construction chaos paralyzes me.  All I want to do is run away and travel instead of just buckling down and getting it completed.   It's been years of living in some sort of disarray.  That hole in my ceiling has been an ongoing project for nearly 10 years.  Something my estranged husband was supposed to handle, but never did.  So, I hired a guy from Thumbtack, who got the job done, eventually.  He could definitely strengthen his time management skills.   Big changes coming for this room.  Change is slow to come in this household, but I still hold out hope everyday that it will speed up.
