Go Steph! Yay financial adulting, Connie!
I powerwashed my deck! Well, Anna and I did. Her deck too. Took us 3 hrs. The wood is no longer grey! It's really amazing. And no more green on the composite surface. So much Lighter! Now I want to do the outside facing wood, but not this weekend. It'll require a ladder. Sunscreen utterly failed in spots. I think there was too much sweat, water spray and deck cleaner in the mix.
Also, cemented my reputation as somewhat perfectionist detail oriented. Anna was laughing at me. It took me about 3x as long as her. And while my surfaces are lighter than hers, hers also have 5 years on mine, so will be darker. I got Brian's seal of approval (he who sweeps the sidewalks so clean when we do leaves, you could eat off of them.)
Made 12 more jar lights. I have 6 more to go. Got a better glue gun.
Pumpkin got out without me seeing today. Didn't go far, but dear god, she's a wiley one to catch. I was chasing her under cars. Bad kitty!
Theo, are you getting psyched for Monday? My massage therapist was saying she's started driving some, and wasn't going to do it Monday until she got a message from them guaranteeing some crazy amount of dough.
(Actually, Ball jar. I've got them in blue, green and lavender. I prefer the blue. Green is nice. Lavender doesn't diffuse colored light as well.)
Oh man y'all. I'm at a "gala" for the WI conservatory of music. Made a weird fast move to catch something dropping. Zipper on the side of my dress pops open from armpit to hip.
Thank God I had a sweater with me. Clutched the cardigan to me, got to the bathroom and fix d it. Ran into the mayor on the way out of the bathroom.
Oh wow. Glad you were able to cover and to fix, Brenda!!
Nice save!
So, just stained the deck furniture. Will need another go at it. But clearly the winter doldrums are waning; I'm impulse insane productive.
So, I'm on day 3 (of 4) of complete vocal rest due to exciting laryngitis.
I don't have the sort of job where you can just Not Talk, so I took Thursday and Friday off.
I got incredibly bored by the end of the day on Thursday (I cleaned 2/3 of my apartment. I vacuumed.), so I spent Friday riding around with my...ummfriend while he did his weekly drive-around-town-for-totally-legal-business-reasons. I had a whiteboard that I was generally using, but, in the car, eyes on the road, so I set up text-to-speech on my laptop. I feel like this is a situation with untapped comedic potential.
But she just found out she has arthritis behind her meniscus, and shouldn't run more than once a week, and only on the flat.
If arthritis is going to lurk behind her meniscus like that, the least it could do is support her in email.
Or wear dramatic "creature of the night" clothes.
Are brenda and Debet both starring in spontaneously generated rom-coms?
