It started life as the front hall closet/coat closet. And now after an hour of stripping the pieces out. I love destruction. It now after a trip to home depot to spend $128.00 on shelving is a functioning...paid off. I love bonus reward points. So technically the closet did not cost anything. And here is the picture of the new closet. And this for those who are watching is the happy Vree B1rd.
Today, I learned how a garbage disposal works. Garbage disposal, by the way, is a device found under your sink used to grind your leftovers to tiny little pieces or you simply see one of these as a prop...though that my hand now smells like grease so I will be spending the whole night washing my hands with every hand soap i could possible find. Overall, I feel more accomplished than dirty. =
climbed back up into the attic and fixed the insulation. this is no easy feat, it is just an opening in the ceiling and i only have a short ladder, so i have to pull myself up with arm strength and then...got most of the plastic up on the windows. i am trying to figure out what to do with the sliding glass door as that bleeds the most heat, but kai lan and lucie keep eating all the plastic i put up
the new light on the ceiling fan in the living room casts a reddish glow. that, in conjunction with the pellet stove going, makes the room just so warm and inviting. i love being out there now. the pellet...if it keeps at the pace it is on. and that is with us running it at the highest temp for a few hours. so it looks like we will be having to get another ton of pellets sometime end of jan/beg of fe
FINALLY after almost a week it is up and running. i had to drill a hole in the floor and run new wire up, string it across the basement and hook a new breaker into the breaker box except the breaker we...still open as we need to get a face plate but yeah! it all works. PHEW. i am exhausted. this has been a nightmare of an experience. but now i know how to do it in the future if the need shall arise
Finally, a chance to relax! It's been a busy week, and I haven't had a whole lot of time to sit down and put down the thoughts being tossed about in my head. I had a great deal of fun at Con on the...is working against me. Aside from that, the week has been fairly uneventful. I'm used to my daily routine again, which I suppose is a good thing. I just need to make writing part of the routine again.
Busy weekend at Casa Clancy. Friday I had the day off so I could watch the kids as daycare was closed. Ended up being Marla and I both being off. She ended taking Ryan over to Doc-in-a-box to get his arm...6 months combined I think. Anyway, moving SLOW this morning. Lotsa Advil on board, worshiping at the Altar of Pepsi, and Finally, FINALLY they have work for me after sitting her for 2 hours! Yay
Blue blue blue! Not white! Blue! (Though the ancient Greeks would call it bronze.) It's drying darker than I expected, but it's really quite nice. Slightly on the yellow side of sky blue, but nowhere...on reviewing WIPs; I'm at least a week behind on Leap of Faith , and -- *GASP!* -- I read but never reviewed the latest update of The Love You Take . (I know. I'm awful.) Have a good night, loves
