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".

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.
