What I'm Reading This Week #31
Good morning and welcome to August. Time is so weird, isn't it. It's insane we're starting the 8th month of the year but yet if I thought back to where we started the year in snow, that seems like a lifetime ago. It's been a very long year yet seems to have gone fast - how does that work? Anyhoo, I hope you're ready to roll for the weekend and the week didn't drop kick you too hard. Once again our HOA was refusing to do their job and wanted to check the drainage. This problem is on our subfloor. ..above anyplace for drainage to be an issue with no gutters above it. Then the woman in power sits on emails all friggin' day and purposely sends things out on her way out the door so another day gets wasted. Oh the things the Mr and I say about her that I can't say here. I was shaking so bad Monday night I wanted to go out and rip the damn siding off myself but we worked out instead to try to work off the frustration. I called o...
I have to say this week went by kind of fast for me. Usually they drag on when the week starts with a day off/holiday. Probably just jinxed myself since it is early yet on a Friday. Have a great weekend people!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of their last 2 bathroom suggestions either. All the other stuff is already something I do. Towels dry faster spread on a bar than bunched on a single hook and my bathroom is way too tiny to give up even the small amount of storage the medicine cabinet gives. I'm having the bathroom re-done soon (I've been saying for 2 years, so "soon" is relative) and the bars and cabinet will be upgraded but replaced for sure.
ReplyDeleteI've done the bathroom, 2 halls closets, living room, and a small portion of the kitchen. I have 2 decent size donate boxes almost full and have taken out a couple trash bags already. I don't know where this stuff comes from.
At my folks for a few days, kiddo has dr appts and we are going to the water park later today, then home to boring-ness and hiding from the 100+ heat.
It's been a busy day so the weekend won't be too bad on that front -- hopefully. I'll just have a bit of laundry and bill paying to do, and then work the weekend. I did some research yesterday on tree removal companies so I may actually send out inquiries to two places tomorrow. The order of things would be tree removal, get a shed, new deck (which probably won't happen this year but at least the yard would be ready for it). And somewhere in there buy the fridges. But I need to get the skinny table in the kitchen first, which I have on Amazon -- just have to move it to the cart after months of debating. LOL
ReplyDeleteI hope you guys have a good weekend and can have some genuine "chill" time -- if you know what I mean. =o)
