It's a lot cooler today, which is nice because I have a cake in the oven. Betsy HP's Indiana Pound Cake, for anyone keeping score. (Dead easy and very tasty: 2 sticks butter, creamed with 2 cups sugar. Add 5 eggs. Then 2 cups flour, 1 tsp each vanilla & almond extract. Bake @325 for an hour.)

OK, cake in oven, now I need to shred things, and take on the bathroom cabinet.

Timelies all!

Sunday at the con. Just had brunch, and am now listening to a concert.

I baked two loaves of zucchini bread this morning! And despite getting a chunk of zucchini in the eye, and snorting a hunk of walnut, I am happily noshing on a slice, and drinking delicious iced black/Passion tea.

YUM.

Mmmm, pound cake, zucchini bread, and brunch!

Another 40 minutes of weeding. I can see the end of this chore, almost, but I am pretty tired. Not sure how this is gonna play out. Also not sure if it is actually gonna rain - that would be so nice!

My apartment is now cleaner than it has been in years!

Which means, still not actually clean.

Heh. My couch is now cleaner than it's been since I got cats, but also still not clean. (I'm chucking one of the side pillows as too ragged and stained to use any longer. Whenever I buy new ones, they will have plastic-y synthetic covers that I can clean by shaking.)

They are clearly winning the war to mess up the floors faster than I can clean them.

Yay for cleaning! Still haven't gotten to the bathroom cabinets.

Because I had to come share THIS: [link]

So awesome. Also might be good for Good Stuff?

I've been cleaning, and working, and am now looking at the pool, which is clearly calling my name. It is in full sun at the moment though and I haven't a clue where my sunscreen might be located because so many things are packed. I'm pretty sure it isn't here. But pool. Sigh. I don't have my car either because it went to NY with Bobby. The weather shows no promise for clouds any time soon. And it is 91. Maybe I'll just jump in and go back inside after a lap.

Anyway. I listed my house for sale yesterday officially. I put together a website, which is not as nice as I would like, but I have to keep reminding myself that the people looking are house buyers, not computer people. Only so many hours in the day to work on it. Two of my doctor customers have recently moved to my neighborhood. One just a couple blocks away, not exactly sure where the other one is. She just moved in. I am going to have DH talk to them tomorrow. I figure since they are both new to the area (moved out of Boca Raton in both cases), they may have friends visiting that also want to move. Seems the thing to do in the young professional set these days is to move out of Boca and into Delray Beach.

If anyone wants to take a look and let me know if I have something grammatically horrendous or just plain stupid please let me know. [link] The photographer is going to come back because he took the shots in the morning and the house faces West. He'll come back and get some nice sunset shots and do the exterior in better light. Didn't want to wait any longer.

DH did a huge amount of the work himself. The wood floors, the kitchen cabinets, so much more. It has been a very lengthy project.

I'm getting ready to caravan out with some friends to celebrate our tragic hair metal pasts: we're going to see Motley Crue (on the supposedly last ever tour for them), with Alice Cooper as the opening act!

Fun! Enjoy!
