Hmmmmm. It has snowed. All. Day. Long. Big loads of it. Big, fat, fluffy flakes. Looks like the yard was never cleared of it the first 5 times. Sigh. 25 days until spring, whoo hoo!!!

So. He says "I have Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. I plan to devote those days entirely to home improvement projects." "Super." I say...................he is the master of pissing time away doing not a darn thing. And so it went like it usually does. We managed to get some paint up on the walls in one room and I put one border up. He has no self confidence for these type of projects. He grew up with his Dad calling him stupid when it came to these things......so I always tread very lightly. For 15 years now, I have given him small, easy projects that will bolster his self esteem in this area. Never saying anything negative to or about him. But then he goes and does STUPID shit. As always. One wall in the girls room had a drywall patch done to it, so there was joint compound that got spilled onto the lower section of the wall. The lower wall is covered in hunter green wallpaper. We are working in the room, I tell him the next thing we need to do is wash down the wallpaper and get the joint compound off of the one wall. Guess which wall he starts washing first? Then uses the joint compounded dirty ass water to wash the rest of the walls. Me? I'm putting border up, not hawk-eyeing him like I should have been I guess. I'm left with nice big white swirls in all of the green wallpaper.............."What.........." he says. What indeed! I tell him to sand to rough spots in the window trim where they had taken the trim off when we got new windows. He sands one window. "Did you sand the second one?" I say....... "I forgot." is his answer. Honestly.............that is just a small sliver of how home projects go around here. I swear to heaven and back that I will do nothing else with him again.

Need to go to the nursing home tomorrow and see what kind of days they have for me that I can pick up.

Need to finish up meeting minutes tomorrow, or tonight and do some small, piddley village stuff.

This dog of ours either has really big gonads or he is just one big dumbass. Caught him on the couch tonight while we were eating dinner.

Devin's birthday is coming up...........I have no clue what to get her. She needs nothing. Maybe a new pair of jeans and that's about it. She is on a really big "Superhero" kick.....I think maybe a nice "SuperDevin" cape may just be in order. Since I finally got a new belt for my sewing machine. Yay!! She gets her pictures taken this Friday.

I scrapped today, and I had fun doing it!

I love Miss Doxie. She makes me belly laugh.

Quote of the Day:
"Meanie, Iney, Oh.
Take a tacko by the O,
If he hollers wet him go.
Call me superhero......."
~Devin. Yes indeed. Figure that one out.
