Good morning. What's going on, guys?

*yawns decisively* Ugh. Guess who didn't sleep great last night? Yup, that would be me. I hope it doesn't stop me from doing the things that need my attention today. I was hoping to do some prep work for my garden, etc.

@Wildfire: I hope you get around to your garden today. :)
We ended up seeding most of his peppers to plant next year, and baking the peppers, and turning them into flakes.

We've got a warmer day out today.. but i mean, it's still pretty chilly. lol.

@Koah: Hi Koah. So far today (and it's now noon), I have been distracted with various things - writing and reading, mostly.
It's somewhere between 70 and 80* outside here again today.
What are your plans for the day?

@Wildfire: So far, I really want tape and paint the remainder of the room I started. Just to get it done. :T I got the bigger half of the room done.
I'm going to brew a cup of coffee though.
My husband told me he got a roofing company set up to start doing work at the end of the month. So that's exciting. and yet, Another project.

@Koah: It sounds like things are going well for you though, all in all - especially with the roofer coming. That's not so much a project for you as it is a little bit of chaos while they're working, but I know what you mean. It sounds like you're at about the same stage with painting your room as I am with the garden... although your project is probably more completed.

@Wildfire: The roof is a good thing, we skipped a few projects that we had in mind, but this is just one of the many things on our list.
Our house has cedar shingles, old cedar shingles. The roof is going to make our place look like an entirely new house. =O

My 'game room' project is.. going So slowly. I've got all the supplies I need now, it's just scrapping up enough energy to work on it. I got about 4 walls left in that space.
I'll probably tape today and do a layer of paint on a wall I started. Then tomorrow, continue with primer.

@Koah: Oh - that sounds like a funky-shaped room! Home projects are often a bit of a pain, but so nice when they're done! As long as you're making progress, you're still making progress, right? I do understand about the energy thing, though... that can be tough sometimes. I hope you can gather some and make a little more progress on your room :3

@Wildfire: lol, I found energy to make bacon, slice fruit, make coffee and make toast. But I haven't gone to the game room yet. It's almost like I'm avoiding it. XD
Think you'll get around to your garden today?

@Koah: I don't know, tbh. Now it's 2:30 and I'm reading stuff on gardens, but I'm not sure if I'll get out there today. Ugh. Why is this so hard???

LOL at your breakfast shenanigans but not getting to the room! Why are you avoiding it?

@Wildfire: I'm wonderful at procrastinating. lol, I'm one of those people that knows I need to do something, so I do a bunch of other stuff that was unnecessary. I've taped and moved a few small things around in the game room today, but nothing else.

Gardening is easy once it's begun. <3 I have a few books on gardening, but they proved little use once I was actually gardening.

I like your avi today. :3

@Koah: Yes, I'm mostly trying to get a better handle on what will grow here, in this sand, at this time of year... what is easy and realistic to start with, and trying to figure out what to plant, where in my tiny yard - or in buckets?? I dunno. I feel so behind the curve with this... /dead/ I have done enough gardening to have some idea of my "style" and what to look for in terms of what to plant here...

I've had days like that. Several, in fact. Sometimes you just need to kick yourself in the arse and do it... other times, waiting for the right moment seems like the right thing to do. Deciding between the approaches isn't always easy. :( I wish you luck!

@Wildfire: I just took a super heavy nap. Turns out Bacon is my kryptonite. lol! It knocked me out. I couldn't even keep my eyes open to read my book. oof.

@Koah: LOL! <3 It might not be the bacon, but one of the preservatives or other additives that knocked you out. If I had to guess, though, you also probably needed that nap :3




Good morning everyone.
