Almost 6 Months

Wow! I've been blogging a lot lately. Probably as much as I used to when I first started this thing. Add the blogs here in with the ones I've been doing over at MySpace, and I've written a novel. I suck so bad at expressing myself, and I think I've been trying really hard to get some pent up stuff out, and it just never comes out right, so I just go on, and on, and on...

I think it was like the 2nd or 3rd month into mine and JC's relationship when he mentioned something about the 6 month mark being the time when you can see if a relationship has any staying power or not. He said at that time that it already felt like it had been six months at that point. I guess so...we were already talking about "forever" pretty darn close to the beginning of this relationship. Neither one of us have experienced something so intense before. Now, the 6 month marker is actually coming up. I guess it's like anything..."if you haven't worn it in 6 months get rid of it"...even with any doubts that I might occassionally have...I don't think I'm getting rid of him. Especially with as hard as he's been trying. He got a second job, and is working really hard to make this work...and if he still wants to put up with someone like me, I guess it's damn time I started believing in him and myself, and us.

Whatever, I'm in pretty good spirits tonight. Except that my parenting patience is on it's last limb. I can't take the crying and whining tonight! It's driving me insane! It's times like this I wish I really had help!

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.
