Ahhh...Back in the world of mesh shirts and headbands...

I had my Intro to Primate Diversity class today and my Geography and Politics of the Asian Rim class, which is with my favorite professor of all time. He's so quirky that he's easily the most picked on professor (he really does wear a headband and a mesh shirt under his other shirt every single freakin' day!), but I've his intellect is dizzying. I love that man! BUT...DA DA DA DUM...we have to do an oral presentation in that class...I DO NOT DO oral presentations. They scare the shit out of me. I'm going to talk to him sometime in the next couple of weeks and see what can be done. My monkey class is really cool. I love learning about that stuff, and we have to do a couple of assignments where we have to go to the zoo. That should be a fun outing for J.C. and me, or Gabby and me, or all three, who knows, but should be cool no matter what!

I just found out I haave to do a presentation for 10% of my grade in my friggin geometry class. I HATE PRESENTATIONS. Public speaking + Panic attacks = not good! but I have to because I want to be a teacher, so I have to be able to get infront of my peers and teach. I have no problem getting in front of kids, its just PEERS!!!

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...

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

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...
