I am procrastinating. Trying to get myself in the mood to go through allll of the kitchen cupboards and the dining room to get rid of anything that I haven’t used in the last… mmm… year? This is the week the work begins on the upstairs bathroom and the kitchen. I’m excited and dreading it at the same time.

Hubby talks smart and says to just get rid of EVerything. If we need it, we’ll buy new ones. Ya, right. He talks smart, but do you know how long it takes to accumulate some of those oddball utensils, and cupcake tins (do you know how long it’s been since I made a freakin’ cupcake??). But I suppose he’s right.

Purple Heart is picking up the dining room table this week too. That has definitely gotten plenty of use. I got it from my mom how long ago, so it has seen better days. blahblah. I must get in the mood here folks.

Did I show you the completed downstairs bathroom? The photos are kinda weird looking ‘cos I had the heat lamps on for the pics – just seemed to show everything better, although they also look a little more orangey than the bathroom really is. It also doesn’t look like that big of a deal because I didn’t take any “before” pictures, which would have been much more impressive if you had seen how icky messy the old version was. Anyhoo, here they are.

Maybe I should go out, drive around the block, get a Starbucks, then come back home all motivated n’ stuff, yes? OH, know what else? Yesterday on my way to save lives, I was a tad early getting to Starbucks with a few minutes before they opened… well, as I was sitting there, one of my Barista friends walked out with a Venti cup o’ brew, came to my car, and proceeded to hand me the cup. “Here ya go. You just take half n’ half, right?”
Wasn’t that so sweet?? I had to get out anyway ‘cos I needed to add some Equal, but that’s just about the best customer service I’ve had in a long time! They’re so good to me. ((love for Starbucks))

Ya, think that’s what I’ll do. There’s also a new (not new-new, but relocated) art gallery moving in around the corner. Gotta drive by and take a peek – that’s pretty darn exciting to me too. whooppeee.

Ok, ok, I’m outta here – c’ya! And Happy Mom’s day to all if I don’t see you tomorrow!!

grrr, I am sooo crabby. Although I should be ok now.

Waay too much activity upon arisal this morning. Downstairs bathroom should be finished today – yay. Very prit-ty. Psycho dog’s meds have kicked in, hubby just left with the big one to get the towel racks, tp holder etc. (yes, I’m trusting him with this assignment), and I just made a fresh pot o’ coffee with my first self-ground beans. Yes, should be ok now.

Even tho I swore I’d never buy a pair of crocs for hospital running around, I couldn’t resist these –

Veggies

Aren’t they cute? Very comfy too, although the first day I wore them, the bottoms of my feet felt the same way they did after wearing fishnet stockings with my cfm boots. There’s little nubbies on the inside bottom of the shoe (I guess it’s supposed to do something beneficial to your feet… hell if I know), but they caused some discomfort after a 12 hr shift this weekend.

ANyway, should probably take advantage of the momentary quiet and get some work done.
toodleooooo!

Burrrrrrr

Being a frequent flyer at Starbucks has its privileges. I’ve had my eye on a burr grinder for awhile now, but really couldn’t justify spending $125 on one. Their Barista brand went on sale not long ago - the same time that I bought a French Press from them. As it turns out, they remained on sale because they’re not carrying that style any longer. So. Now it’s 49.99. Hmmm… still not sure about spending that, even though now I could justify it since I need 2 different grinds of coffee – coarse for the press, and fine for the brewer.

Burr grinders are best

The point of this post is that one of the Baristas offered to let me use her 30% employee discount, so I got it for $35.00! yay.

How’s the remodeling going you ask? Well, he’s painting the downstairs bathroom (yes, he is – he can do it faster and better than we can. Besides, I hate to paint walls), and the tile should go in tomorrow. I tell ya, I sure miss that 2nd toilet.

Ok, gotta get ready to pick up Mumsy. We’re going shop-ping, yes we are. It’s a good thing to get away from this desk for a change, yes? I think so.
Until later… xoxo

Lookie what I got!

Jim Flora Album Cover - all mine!!

I’m so excited… the album cover is the highly coveted artwork of the late, great, Jim Flora. My fav one as a matter of fact. And you know what’s really weird? About a month or so ago, I received an email from Irwin Chusid, who is the author of Flora’s groovy books and maintains/preserves Flora’s web site, wondering if I would like to do an interview with him, since I obviously admired Flora by putting him numero uno on my link list. And now this! yay! Must add this to my “need to get framed” list (btw, I was going to the frame shop this week, but it’s been raining and I don’t want to get the artwork wet – honest).

ANyway – that’s my excitement for the day (yes, stay tuned for that interview!). Now I must tend to my spag noodles. Which reminds me – did I ever tell you that my mom used to throw spaghetti noodles at the wall, and if they stuck, they were done cooking? Weird, huh.

c’yall later

Oh NO! There’s blood in my caffiene stream!
ha, that cracks me up. For some reason I was flippin’ around in my old blogger entries, and came across that line from Ron at PinkPig. Yup, 7 years ago, holymoly. Time flies.

I don’t feel like doing a damn thing tonite. What the heck. I taped a slew of shows since Tuesdays are my class nite, so I think I’ll just kick my feet up and veg… ok, maybe click around here n’ there a bit, just enough so the screensaver doesn’t come on.

My boob itches. ‘scuse me. Which reminds me, I can always tell when it’s time for a new bra when I bend over, like to play with the dogs or something, and a boobie falls out. Well, ’tis true. I suppose… it’s one of those necessary things that I hate buying and so I wait until the last minute, ya know?

hohum. I was going to tell you something else, now I forgot. Those darn tangents of mine…
Oh well. If I remember it later I’ll come back, k?

any which way

Rosie is one of the loosest dogs I have ever known. Wherever and however she lands in a spot, her legs pretty much go in any direction… and frequently not very *lady-like* either. Of course my photography abilities never seem to catch the moment as it appears, but tonite she was just chillin’ and sittin on the couch – just looked so damned cute.

Take a look. But, like I mentioned, something is just lost in a freeze frame, ya know?

Know what else? I’ve been to etsy a few times here n’ there, visited Lori’s page, looked around at mostly jewelry things. Tonite I got hung up on shops with their prints and original artwork – oh dear! I couldn’t tear myself away from there! “One more page, just one more than I’ll stop…” I wound up buying 2 little prints from Ashley… they’re just so cute to me, had to have them. Besides, I needed a litle variance in the size of my artwork around here, and yes, I’m still in the process of framing my current print collection – really.

These are the two that I purchased… awwww…

Ashley Goldberg art

I’d better go to bed early tonite I think. Now that the downstairs bathroom is still in mid-transformation (no toilet), hubby came up to pee last nite and caught me reclined & snoring at the desk – whoopsie. 4 a.m., tsk tsk. ‘sokay, I’m pretty sleepy and had a longish day. Wouldn’t hurt me to get more than 4-5 hrs sleep once in awhile, yes?

Okee doke,  later kids.
