Toyota Corrola

Josh was sweet and came and picked up Gabby and me. We took Gabby to school, stopped for bagels and coffee, and then I took him to work. On the way to his office, I kept noticing that he would do something weird with the gas and the break pedals whenever we were stopped at a light. I asked him nicely if his car was going to cut off on me. He simply said yes, but it will turn right back on. WHAT?! I begged him to just take me home and drop me off. He could keep his stinkin' car. But by this point I think he was relishing in the fact that I was scared to drive his car. Once in it I couldn't even stick the key in the ignition. I tried it many times before Josh finally left me to my own devices. (The key BTW was bent up and scratched to death.) I did fine though. I got to my first light, and thought well, I have driven worse, not much, but yes, worse. I stayed home all day anyways. He couldn've just kept his piece of junk. He called in the afternoon to find out if I was going to be able to deal with the key, and he made some comment about getting a new key . . . why not just a new car!!!!!???? I appreciated the use of vehicle very much, but I have my own dying car problems! Tomorrow I will be using my mom's car, and will feel much safer!

I'm not usually a night-blogger . . . I'm very restless and VERY hormonal today!!! I hate crying for no reason. It's so stupid. And you would think that if you know you're hormonal and you know that the next week you'll feel much better you should be able to suck it up and deal . . . another of life's little mysteries.

What the fart is going on with your blog?

And, apparently, you and Jessie are on the same menstrual cycle. Sorry you're having such a time of it. :(
Jeanette - did you like the other one I had up today better? I really liked it, but there were some things I didn't, and since I really suck at knowing what I'm doing with code, and how to add things and such, I thought it might be easier to go back to the same ol same ol boring blog format. What do you think?

I liked the old one. We are on the same mentral cycle. How special. I feel better already! Is that a tick-tock blog I see down there ready to be read? WHAT is that all about? huh...

Nothing can be worse than Jessica's Blue Nose! Do you remember her 1979 Oldsmobile Delta 88? IT was aweful. I was so scared to drive it. YOu had to put the car in neutral at lights and push the gas to keep it from dying. Soooo Scary and the thing wayed a ton so you had to get like 10 field workers to help you push it! Aweful!
Jess - yeah, that made me laugh. I think we're a week behind though, so you're in bitch mode, and I'm in overemotional crying mode. So, you think I should put the eye one back up. I guess that could be a project for me. Learning how to make it the way I want it to be.

K - I remember that car, but I only drove in it when she first got it, so, no problems then. Actually, I drove it once, and Steve and Mando jumped out of the car in the middle of the street and walked home. My first car I had to drive the same way, and it was a standard, so it was even harder to keep running at the light!!!
You know what? I did like the 'eye' template better. I just need to learn to make it more "mine". So, hurry up, Jeanette, and give me the consesus, so I can change it back!

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.
