My 17 year-old laughed as I sat at the computer and whined - nothing to blog about today. Who wants to hear about my day of painting (which continues today)?
Ha!
I also spent yesterday with the dust bunnies. Lots of them. If you don't think you have too many books, just move a bookshelf. Well, the bookshelf is not moved just yet, but the books are all off and dusted.
I found more books to donate to the "donation station" in my progress. I was so happy to get that job done, but now boxes and a laundry basket fill my living room floor with dog temptations (books). I must move quickly and move the shelf and re-shelf the books I am keeping. Either way, I was thrilled to get this far, on this job.

Random Tidbits
If you are wondering how my "to-do" list is going....slow. I can't seem to get a job completely done. I need more patience when it comes to painting. The taping part is so much work. I need to talk myself through it, and not roll my eyes so much. Even the kids are avoiding it like a plague.
If you are wondering if I've been able to take a tea break at 2pm, I have. If you are wondering if I have been stealing away at 4pm for an hour to myself? Ha, yeah. That's not happening. I think the change of weather, and longer, brighter nights are keeping me from curling up with crochet. The 4 o'clock hidey hole, was mainly to stock up for the Farmer's market, but that's been difficult to do.
We just went from warm/rainy weather back to snow and cold. It's nothing but a few flurries.
I whipped up a bowl of slaw. Organic cabbages went on sale. This tasted so good since we haven't had cabbage for a while.
