Thursday

Well now. Thank you, DW, for telling me one of my icons didn't get imported. You even told me which one it was, so I could easily retrieve it from LJ and upload it here. Nice.

Cloudy and humid -- thunderstorms rolled through late yesterday afternoon, and then more thunder and rain early this morning. Lots of birds at the feeders -- Chango and I stepped out on the deck and were immediately scolded and fussed at by the titmice and chickadees. 75 degrees right now (23.9 Celsius).

Mr. N gets home from Kansas City tonight so must do housely things, so I'll be in and out of here off and on today, trying to figure things out. :-)

Isn't that nice? DW did that for me last night.

I need to check with Corgiguy and see if there's room in this week's budget for the carpet cleaner to come do his magic. Things are looking pretty dire downstairs and a good cleaning always improves it considerably. I decided we could live with the horrible carpet a few years longer in return for getting the Fit paid off ahead of time, but we'd like to have a hard floor put in before the critters reach the age of senile incontinence. :)

HI NIGHTDOG HELLO!

Your post is different here than over there! Amazing! *g*

I'm done with class, and feeling rather fried-in-the-head, but I've got a meeting this afternoon, so. I think I'll have some lunch. And maybe play with my DW a bit.

Hi! *waves*

Back from my appointment, and ... wow. Um ... um ...

... I was actually ready to walk away from this gig. This gentleman is a really nice guy but oh, bless his heart, his house.

I mean, he inherited a lot of the decorative travesties when he bought the place, but seems intent on inflicting a whole new and different set upon it. Although I doubt anything could outdo the blue-and-black-scattered-zits sponge-painting job in the room where he wants the mural. I've never seen anything quite like it, and my only real demand was that this had to be well painted over before I begin. Because my artist's paints are not that opaque, and would require many layers to hide those splotches.

He's removing the early-'80s striped pinkish floral wallpaper in the kitchen ... but replacing it with a wallpaper that resembles some kind of fabric from Jamaica, maybe? It's a large abstract pattern of deep blue with oranges, reds, yellows.

And he just seems so unsure of himself, and rushed, and I wish he'd take a breath and chill out. But I'll only be there for a day, and it'll be good money, and I talked him out of the Idea That Would Have Looked All Wrong and we settled on the Idea That Could Actually Be OK, so.

Why, why, why must I be out of caffeinated coffee today?

Oh, hi! You moved! *looks around* :-)
