Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Grrr.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Baby shower today! It's mostly gay men without kids, so maybe not so much about the advice-giving, but it's gonna be CLASSY.

Fun! And probably no candy bars in diapers?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sounds fun, bon! Good way to avoid labor horror stories.

One more cup of coffee and I seriously need to get going on the yardwork. I'll loan you my Cook All the Things mojo while I'm doing that, Jesse.

Stay warm, snowed on peoples!

"I would...but I've been catted" is an acceptable excuse for not doing whatever at my house. Most of the time, anyway.

Punishingly Intricate

Because neither one of us can think what they can do to fix it other than rip everything out....

Aieeeee.

Today we have to pick out a sink and a terlet and decide for real what side of the bathroom the sink will go on and then where the lights will go in relation to it. Probably some other stuff. Our friend doing the work claims that it will be a mostly working bathroom by the time Bob gets back from Chicago on Thursday but I find that hard to believe. It's all slats and subfloor and complicated things that have to happen to the plumbing right now! Fortunately our friend is good at figuring complicated things out!

And now I'm catted. So.

Wow, that sounds so fast, lisah! I hope it really works out that way.

And good luck wit the leak, Jesse. I hope there's a less destructive way to deal with it.

And the cat has released me. OK, the plan is to get the front yard

  • edged
  • mowed
  • the rosebushes semi wrangled
  • birds fed
  • pots watered

before I post again...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I was full of motivation and plans last night. Today, all motivation is gone and I'm cold and cranky. I may go back to bed.

I will say, my parents' bathroom was generally functioning throughout their interminable re-do, even when there were no walls!

One cat moved next to me, but the other one is now on me. And seriously kneading my bicep however that is spelled.

bon, sounds fab!

lisah, you know I want pics.

My friend Tim who is hosting kept insisting "no poop games!" every single time the topic of the shower came up. I didn't even know what these things are (now I do) so I had no desire for such a thing...but he was really worried that that would somehow occur. So no. No poop games. No vagina cakes (THE HORROR). Just onesie decorating and bellinis.
