Feeling Domestic

I am not a cook. I’ve enjoyed baking for a really long time, but cooking food for meals is a different thing, and not something I’ve done much of.
Last night I bought some frozen talapia, and put one in the refrigerator to defrost for today. I needed to make it quick because my mom was [...]

Not Tonight; I Have A Headache

I am not a seasonal allergy sufferer; I suffer from them pretty much all the time. Dust, mold, whatever it is, it’s controlled quite nicely by a daily dose of Zyrtec. Somehow I managed to run out without buying more first, so last night I missed a dose.
I had this grand plan to go to [...]

The Sofas Are Here! The Sofas Are Here!

Yeah, I’m pretty much that excited. Pictures will be along just as soon as I’m able to clear out the extra furniture from my living room. The new sofas look awesome with the blue color I chose for the living room, and they’re super comfy. I love being able to push a button to lift [...]

Projects in Progress

I’m just worn out today after only really getting about five hours of sleep last night. I had to pretty much drag myself out of bed so I could let Barb in to work on my master closet while I finished the last little bit of prepping for my workshop. I actually did do some [...]

Another Unexciting Day

Is “unexciting” even a word? It doesn’t sound right, but spell-check doesn’t mind it, and I’m too tired to care at this exact moment.
I did get a bit of exciting news today, but it won’t really be exciting until Sunday, when my new sofas will be delivered. The last I heard they wouldn’t be in [...]

Staving Off More Illness

Today I woke up feeling very rundown and possibly coming down with another cold (I’m still wondering if my first cold was really a cold at all, since the symptoms were also very similar to H1N1), so I called in sick to work and got some extra sleep. I’m so glad I did, because I [...]

I’ll Sleep When This Week Is Over

I have no idea how I’ve been managing to get up for work this week, because I’ve been up later than I want to be every night. Mostly, of course, I’ve been working on house stuff, trying to put things away or organize or whatever. I’ve also been trying to catch up with some TV, [...]

Bringing Some Order to the Chaos

In just a few days, I have a Stampin’ Up! workshop. I love doing these now and then, but as the days go by, I have to wonder how brilliant of an idea it was to schedule one so close to when I was buying a home. If the closing had been when it was [...]

My Post Was Eaten

I don’t really have the heart to rewrite the post I just though I posted but seems to have disappeared.
Short story version: I was nervous about using the dryer I had in storage for about 11 years, but it appears to be fine.
Tomorrow I need to buy real food. And put my bread machine to [...]

A Quiet Sunday Evening

In actuality, most of my day was quiet. I’ve  felt a little miserable most of the day (no need for further details on that), and while I know I just have so much work to do, I really didn’t want to get off the couch. So, I didn’t get any errands done.
I did get a [...]
