Catch-up corner...

I bought new curtains this weekend. They are too long to be short, too short to be long. They are the high-waters of curtains. I think my grandma can shorten them for me. I should really learn to sew. Thank god for grandmas.

I'm going on vacation this summer! Yay vacation. I'm excited and it is still five months away. When you are an adult, you have to find your milestones where you can. Somehow, the week at the beach is what keeps me going. Here is our house. Well, at least our house for a week in July.

Tomorrow is a holiday from my day job, but not my night one. At least the day will be only five hours long instead of 14. A partial day off is better than nothing.

I have a bad tooth. I am so fricking terrified of the dentist that I have been putting up with a toothache for the past week. It's not bad most of the time but every now and then something cold will hit it-then HOLY HELL it hurts! I must make an appointment next week. The worst thing? I haven't been to the dentist since returning to ML years ago.

My bro and his family were here overnight this weekend. Since returning from his away-place, he has become just a LITTLE pussy-whipped. OMG. Where did he go? Scary stuff happening, there.

A grown up veggie-hiding manual...

I need to try some of these. Seems to be a Jessica Seinfield sort of veggie-hiding thing. I have honestly considered buying her book for myself. Wonder if I would like Spinach brownies?

Treadmill, baby...

Ok, I did it. I bought myself a treadmill. I am pretty darn out of shape, so it was a workout to use it for 15 minutes at 2% incline. I'm sweating and my legs are a bit rubbery, but I do feel accomplished. Per my weight (and the clever calculations on my new toy) I used almost 200 calories. And that doesn't even count the sweat and exertion I used putting the damn thing together. Not bad for my first day.
