My Favorite Muffin

I just love this man's blog . I can't get enough of that baby. Too cute!

I watched a movie last night recommended by the AOC . . . Lantana. I'm not sure what I thought. It was very slow moving. What disturbed me was that it was all about these different married couples, and the affairs that they did and didn't have. Hmmm . . . I hope he just thought it was a good movie, and wasn't trying to give any hints!

I called and talked to Aaron the Beast on 6 different occassions yesterday. In tears for a couple of them. I was trying to get him to switch trainers for me. He said he would do it, but in the end I decided that I have so few training sessions left that I would just suck it up and deal with the Wimp. Then I can decide if I want to buy more sessions and change trainers. But you know, if I'm really so into all this stuff, I should use the money to get certified as a trainer and then I can just train myself. the only thing is is that sometimes you really do need more than one person for stretching and spotting and stuff. I was afraid yesterday that all my crying over Aaron was because somehow I had fallen in love with him and didn't know it. But as Josh pointed out, it's just really kind of like a mentor/student relationship. He changed my way of thinking and all that good stuff. And maybe if the Wimp was better at his job, I wouldn't be feeling this "break-up" so much.

At the bagel shop (that I go to every freakin' morning) they have muffins that are called "My Favorite Muffin". I must have a dirty mind because that just brings a whole lot of other thoughts to my mind besides eating a real baked good.

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...

What is up?

Whew! I made it to my parent's house for once. My computer is still down, but it is my fault for not bringing it over to my dad's to get it fixed. It's kind of nice though to not always be so worried about checking my email or what not. I've been pretty busy. I was working my usually seasonal job for the last three weeks. Halloween happened, of course (pictures coming), and I've been interviewing like crazy. I'm going to be looking into temp jobs this week. I got a call from one, and she was going to put me into this once company that I've put in like 12 applications for. So, it might be easier for me to just find a temp-to-hire job. At least then I'll be relatively done with this whole interview crap. I don't even get nervous anymore...I just hate it. I'd rather sit in a bath tub full of frogs. Ok, maybe not that, but something else just as painful... I seriously had a blog written up in my head every single day for the last few wee...
