Joyce ,'Never Leave Me'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Dear handy home repair DIY people: PLEASE COME TO OUR HOUSE. Please. DIY clothing? No problem. Any sort of home repair thing? Oh no. We do not have those skills.
I have finished packing the big suitcase for this weekend. My fancy fancy outfit, Cass' fancy fancy outfit, corsets, spare hat, spare boots, and ... regular clothes. If I could travel with a steamer trunk and a footman, I would, dammit. But the Vampire Ball is going to be fabulous.
I would trade home repair for clothing alteration! Would that we had transporter technology.
I have finished packing the big suitcase for this weekend.
And I have taken all of the donation stuff out of my trunk. By actually going and donating it! It's exclamation point worthy because now your suitcase (and you) will actually fit in my car. That was not the case earlier today.
Sometimes I still like the home repair books better
I've hung onto a couple of useful books, mainly Fix It Fast, Fix It Right and a fat Time-Life Complete Fix-It book, plus books about things I think I might do in a hypothetical future in which I have money, health, time, motivation and a chop saw.
I would like a book--I would trust it more than the internet.
Sadly, smonster, I have no plumbing help.
Oh dear gods am I tired. I've been cleaning, sorting, and organizing for the past seven hours and every part of me aches. I still have to do both bedrooms (the guest room will be quick; our bedroom nsm as I plan to begin the Great Spring Clothing Purge of 2012), and I couldn't finish the floors because I ran out of Swiffer wet thingys, but the rest of the house SPARKLES. And smells good, which is always tricky with five furry critters. I think I need to call it a day, though. Not only am I sore as hell, but I haven't eaten dinner yet and still have to work on taxes with ND when he gets home. I am torn between feeling really too old for this level of deep cleaning and really proud of myself.
Coffee: I even did some sorting through stuff that had been piled in corners for ages. I have a ton more to do when it comes to going through closets and drawers and such, but it's a start.
Pix, that's what I'm planning to do this weekend! Massive cleaning. Ouch. But it will feel great when it's done! (Right?)
It will feel great when it's done! You may not, if I'm any judge, but it will!
Wow, Pix, that's awesome. I need to do that.
