The little things
I am so excited - we are finally getting a new dishwasher! Woo hoo! Little things like this make me disproportionately happy. Then again, washing dishes by hand is rather my least favorite house chore. It's a portable, unfortunately (we don't have under-counter space for a real one), but at least it's a convertible, so that when we get the ( Read more... ) -
Holy ice cubes, Batman!
There's pea-sized hail coming sideways at my third-floor window. Guess I'll be postponing my afternoon latte run. *brrrr* -
So lately...
...it's been all about home improvement. Much fun, but my fingers are itching to get started on some new summer garb. *sigh*

Now I might have time for some sewing projects. I did end up ordering some white linen from ( Read more... ) -
Best laid plans...

Not that I mind shopping (woo hoo! New jeans!), and it will be really nice when we are actually done with the paint job, but there wasn't much time ( Read more... ) -
Time to get cracking
So I went through a period of high SCA motivation a couple of weeks ago, and finished a bunch of stuff I've been wanting to do for a while. Now I'm in between projects, and am having trouble motivating to start something new. It's not that I'm bored with what I've been doing, it's that I'm having trouble prioritizing. Not knowing what to start ( Read more... ) -
Gotta love Google

Owie
Just finished priming the hallway - walls, ceiling and trim. What made me think that this was a relaxing thing to do after work?? -
I *heart* Vermont!
