Out Damn Spot!

I'm trying extra hard not to focus on the negative today, which is definitely a very hard thing to do with a list of things going on like this:

1. Gabby has detention after school today. I'm no angel, but I NEVER had detention or went to the office or even had in school suspension...NOTHING!

2. Seriously, I'm not being overdramatic...and this is very hard to say...I've known my relationship with my best friend has not always been healthy....but I think I have finally realized that it might actually verbally abusive...towards me. I'm trying to sort out my boundaries and figure out where to go from here...

3. I'm not the most decisive person, but I'm not a perfectionist either...so, if you told me to pick you up some dinner from Wendy's...I would probably know basically what you like, etc. and I would just get it. If you didn't like what I got? Oh well, that's your problem. This is getting to the point that P-Dub drives me insane with his indecisiveness, perfectionism and non-leadership skills. If he goes to get food, first I get a text about what I want to drink, then I get a text about this and a text about that....when the whole point of him picking up the food was to let me chill for a second!!!!!!!!!!! ARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! Just venting...

4. I think I have a Corneal Ulcer again. Meaning my contact has scratched or made a little tear on my cornea. Going to the doctor in a few minutes to have it checked out. This is pretty serious and can make someone blind. The last and first time I had one...the doctor opened up the office every morning over Thanksgiving for me to come in....it was that or be hospitalized. Ugh.

5. I have to pick Gabby up from detention at 5. I don't get off work till 4:45...I will just barely make it...if I do at all, but nope....there's no hope that I will be allowed to leave even 5 minutes early today...even though I've done 37 minutes of over time this pay period.

So....I'm going to focus on different things...like:

1. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, except some free movies tickets, was taken from my purse when my car was broken into! Woo Hoo! No standing in lines trying to get a new driver's license, etc.

2. My friend Becky has taken the most beautiful pictures of our pregnant friend Joy that I will post later.

3. It's almost a 3 day weekend!!!

Oh...and because Gabby's getting harder to control...she has punishment coming her way...called work! I was going to send her to her dad's for the month of June so I would save daycare money, but there are too many bad influcences there...so, it looks like she'll be staying with my mom during the weeks and going to work with her everyday! To Work! Having to get up at 6am! On her summer vacation! This actually makes me happy! Kind of sick, huh?

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...

What is up?

Whew! I made it to my parent's house for once. My computer is still down, but it is my fault for not bringing it over to my dad's to get it fixed. It's kind of nice though to not always be so worried about checking my email or what not. I've been pretty busy. I was working my usually seasonal job for the last three weeks. Halloween happened, of course (pictures coming), and I've been interviewing like crazy. I'm going to be looking into temp jobs this week. I got a call from one, and she was going to put me into this once company that I've put in like 12 applications for. So, it might be easier for me to just find a temp-to-hire job. At least then I'll be relatively done with this whole interview crap. I don't even get nervous anymore...I just hate it. I'd rather sit in a bath tub full of frogs. Ok, maybe not that, but something else just as painful... I seriously had a blog written up in my head every single day for the last few wee...
