I Love Peanuts

Gabby's favorite place to eat is Souper Salad. She doesn't like soup, and she really hates salad. Nonetheless...that's her favorite place to eat. I'm gonna guess because they have lots of kid friendly things like Goldfish, watermelon, cheese pizza...ice cream...finger foods.

Gabby's least favorite place to eat is Logan's Roadhouse. I'm not sure why. Or at least I wasn't until a couple of days ago. She hates Logan's Roadhouse so much that Josh and I love to tease her about it. She'll say, "Where are we gonna eat?" And Josh or I will say, "We're going to Logan's." At which point she will scream and cry that she doesn't want to go and why can't we just go to Souper Salad.

So, we did it to her again. Josh and I already planned on going to eat at Souper Salad, but while I was on the phone with him (Gabby screaming in the background "Souper Salad Souper Salad Souper Salad!"), I said, "Good idea, Josh. Let's go to Logan's." Gabby responded with a very whiny, "LOGAN'S?? Ihate Logan's." Yea, I was really surprised by that response. What I didn't expect her to say is, "That place is just too 'woody' for me."

If you've ever been to any kind of "roadhouse" I'm sure you'll understand. The benches are made of wood, and there are peanut shells all over the floors. Yea, Gabby, I agree. Very, very "woody".

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

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...

Theraputic List

I've been making a lot of lists lately. It's been teraputic, and of course, that's the purpose. Therapy. I'm kind of in a phase where I'm learning to love my body. I mean, I am working hard, and I've lost another 2lbs...but just in case I don't get there, I want to love it anyway. And there are lots of things that I do love about it. It's only been in the last couple of years that I haven't felt very sexy. But 5 years ago, when I weighed the most I've ever weighed, I still felt sexy...I think that had something to do with the boyfriend I had at the time...he thought I was the sexiest thing alive at any weight...it definitely boosted my self esteem. Things I don't like about my physical appearance: 1. I absolutely despise my innter thighs! 2. And...for the rest of my body...the only thing I don't like is my abdomen area...that's always been where I carry the most weight...and I never did lose that "baby stomach"......
