Even though the floor isn't 100% finished, it looks great! I really can't believe how it changes the look of the room. It makes it feel bigger! Crazy.
I managed to unbox all the kitchen stuff. Run 2 loads of dishes (since its been sitting in boxes for 3 months, thought it best to wash the stuff) and have a 3rd on the counter ready to go. I say unbox, as I still haven't figured the home for everything just yet. But, I wanted boxes gone. I also did a load of laundry. And hung the two iron art works. And mom came over and we watched the Eagles/Giants game. Despite the disappointment of the flooring not 100% done, all in all, it was a productive day.
The video and pix that the DH took of me skating this morning are HORRIFYING. I have such a double chin that I barely have a neck anymore.
Awww, I loved the pictures of you skating and thought you looked quite the hottie.
sigh, meara and Scrappy, I don't know what y'all are talking about. You're both great looking--not just pretty women, but pretty women who move well and feel comfortable in their own skin.

Believe me, no one is being as critical of you two as yourselves. BELIEVE ME.
Aw, you guys are so kind--and my rational mind knows you are right. My OTHER way-less-rational mind however, just won't shut up.

I think it takes some forceful and active self acceptance work to do so. It won't go away on its own.
What Nora said, all of it.
I am so damn queasy, still. I was chewing on ginger all morning. Trying to choke down a banh mi now.
I could use some advice. Remember the saga of the friend who borrowed my corset for a party and then didn't return it for 4 months?
I haven't seen or talked to her since then. Today I get a FB message from her saying "Hi! How are you and Tim? It's been TOO LONG!!! Any chance I could borrow your corset for parties on the 16th and the 27th? If not both, my preference is the 27th. Talk to you soon!"
O_o
Really? REALLY? You borrow my corset, take 4 months to return it to me despite me asking several times if I could get it back, and then I don't talk to you for 6 months UNTIL you want to borrow it again.
I feel like I need to say something more than "No." I realize (thank you, Gavin de Becker) that "No" is a complete sentence, but I feel like I need to say something more. But I can't think of anything remotely polite.
Hey now. At least she gave you a choice of when you had to let her have it.
(And I vote you do. Let her have it, that is.)
How about "Damn, Skippy."
