There may not be OSHA pretty soon.

Did not think about that until after I got home, but yeah. Working from home the balance of the week regardless

Sorry about your friend, CaBil. Such a mess. I actually tried to watch CSPAN this morning to follow what's being said if not what's happening but I couldn't take it for long.

Best wishes for happy days for Pix and Maria despite all the everything!

aren’t there OSHA standards for that

I mean, for now. By the end of this week, who knows?

CABIL IS BACK! Hi there!

Happy birthday Pix and Maria!

Oh! I did not know you were in the DC area, Cabin. Good to know! (I'm NoVa).

I shovelled the driveway, like all the way into the crappy parts where it meets the road. All clear now! And de-snowed the car. I am feeling quite virtuous.

Lunch time!

Umm, yeah. I'm surprised so many people remember me. I must be unforgettable!

Like a burr. Or an unwanted houseguest. Impossible to dislodge. ;)

CaBil, I know we met at some F2F, but I don't have a chance of remembering where.

The local furniture place that sells Stickley furniture is having a Stickley sale. Matilda wants a new chest for her room and I'm thinking of this: [link]

I love this detail: "The top two [drawers] are velvet lined, and the top-right drawer also features a sliding velvet jewelry tray."

Umm, yeah. I'm surprised so many people remember me. I must be unforgettable!

Pfft. You gave me and JZ a ride in your new Prowler at the DC F2F.

Ooh, lovely, David.

Ooh, lovely, David.

I'm not ready to furnish the bedroom in the attic yet, but I'm bookmarking this bed: [link]

Let's see if I can work through my onerous tasks today:

Clean Guinea Pig Cage [done]
Vacuum [done]
Pick Up One Pile
Learn how to dust [somewhat]
Dust [ineffectual measures taken]
Pay three past due bills [done]
Empty garbage cans and take out trash [done]
Make a frittata
Make chicken soup [done - and delivered
Pick up item I left at friend's house [done]

I love a sleigh bed, but I don't like it when the footboard is above the mattress (in any bed, ever), so that one is both lovely and structurally approved! Nicely scoped.

I have done our taxes. Ugh. I'm going to re- do with us filing separately to see if it makes a difference, but I don't think it will be a material difference. Blergh.

Now I think I will look at job listings. So I can pay my taxes.

I did make hot cocoa. Accidentally, six servings (I adjusted the recipe down in my head but I then put the full amount of unsweetened cocoa in, so... now there is extra hot cocoa waiting for later. Not a bad sitch, really.)
