What I'm Reading This Week #13

Friday is finally here!  Can I get a woot woot?!  (Cheers to those who actually did it.)  The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam!  Friday.  We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday.  The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys!  Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no.  We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house.  Soon enough I guess.   You may have noticed a little zhuzh to the site (probably more for those on laptops) but I figured it was time and I think they retired my previous theme anyway.  So it's a little minimalistic but there wasn't a ton to choose from on the free side so I took what I could get.  Enjoy. 😄

I sat down and did a spreadsheet of my seeds, when they were started, harvest dates and when to start new seeds for later season harvests.  Apparently I'm a plant nerd now.  I know me and I'll never remember when I'm supposed to be checking on stuff so I'll send myself emails.  (Because the, no lie, 14 I snooze get per day aren't enough.)

Now let's get to:

Chill but Productive Weekend Recap 

What Happened to Sharing Knowledge?

The Mr informed me that he wants to tackle the garage this weekend.  Not necessarily the cleaning part like I thought but the 'cutting into the top of every stud pocket on the shared wall and dropping the insulation we've had in the basement for four months' part.  It does need done and definitely before the heat of the season sets in.  I guess I just wasn't mentally prepared for that yet but here we go.  We've got plenty of thin set to cover the patches from patches past.  I assume we'll just slather on whatever leftover primer we have on there after we sand and call it a day.   I am REALLY hoping it dampens the sounds of the jagoff next door because he purposely comes out to the garage when he hears us out there just to be annoying, eavesdrop, cough, hock and curse.  (To which I bring out the Bluetooth speaker and blast Maneskin's Italian banger "Zitti I Buoni" and that usually takes care of it.  It would be nice not to hear him word for word as he 'her-dee-ders' on the phone to his fellow nut scratchers.  

I 💓 attached living.  😖

What's on your plate this weekend?  You getting the itch for any Spring projects yet?
