UPDATE

Jessica is the bestest friend n' the whole wide world!!! I have had moments in our friendship where I have thought that I really hated her and strangling her wasn't too far fetched, but in the end, she's the coolest!!! She did something very cool for me this weekend!!! Thanks, Jess!

My "job" is seasonal, and the season is upon me again. I started back to work last Friday, and now my days of blog reading, bagels, coffee, and being a lazy bum are over. 30 hours a week, plus 12 hours of classes...plus the 24 hour parenting job, and I'm swamped!!! I'm happy to be around people again though, and not just sitting at home alone with my computer!

I hope to be able to keep up with this blog, and with reading all my e-friends' blogs as well at least twice a week, I hope.

really there's no competition though -- I'm cutter. LOL Sike...I'm only semi-cutter. Sike sike sike...I think I always made sure I looked cute for the boys, because they always made a point to tell me when I looked fatter, but I've always felt comfortable looking dumpy around you. ;-)

That's probably my problem, too. I don't feel the need to be cute when I'm going there to DC. I didn't last time either! Well, maybe I do this time, just in case someone decides to show up...but, for you?, I'll try to look the most putrid I can!!!

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...

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...

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.
