feeling manic …..

In the past ten minutes I have mentally composed at least three different blog posts. Here is a sample of some opening lines in the exact ordered they popped into my head:

  • Don’t let the idyllic picture fool you. I am in a craptacular mood. I am covered in paint and sweat and have only finished two of the chairs so far – four to go.
  • Blogging is theraputic, I was all set to post a big rant and realized it’s less of a bad mood and just exhaustion.
  • They are all making me crazy and I am going to kill someone.

so you can see that I am not fit for human consumption today. Ann is not potable.

when in doubt, a list!

I am :

  • cleaning
  • ironing
  • mowing
  • car-washing
  • finished with sewing up the side panels on my Larger than Life Bag and am set to start the bottom & gussets

I thought I was finished with the pigs sitting on the hutch. But somehow I missed a few – on the left are a set of hors d’oeuvres picks that were another excellent Ebay find and on the right is a fantastic present that you can read about here.

I had an email from D#1. She is loving Greece! The performances have been going well and they have done lots of sight seeing. I have been following along on the itinerary – today they were traveling by bus to Peloponnese to Corinth, Mycenae, Nafplion and Epidaurus. We bought her an expanded memory card for her camera and she said she is getting lots of good pictures.

My day’s itinerary does not include such exotic ports of call. I will be traveling by car to Costco. There I will avail myself of some samples, perhaps have an impulse purchase but will absolutely be procuring some dog food. After touring Costco, I will hop back into the car and whisk myself and D#2 off to the barn. Along the way I shall enjoy the sites of the Long Island Expressway. After this whirlwind day of shopping and driving, I will enjoy watching the season finale of The Office which I missed last night. I do not have expanded memory in my camera and shall take no pictures.
