I've got a few more dishes done and am about to start cooking supper. I just wanted to sit down for five minutes before doing that!!

I've gotten all the "dust" dust, dirt, sanding dust, grease and "product" stripped out of my hair in preparation for tomorrow's dyeing. Also tomorrow, I will put the first coat of paint on the front of mirror frame with the exception of where I'll be putting the trim. With luck, I'll get the second coat on tomorrow afternoon/evening. I'm also hoping to start getting the corner blocks glued/nailed into place tomorrow evening too. Once that is done I'll know EXACTLY how long to cut the trim that goes between them! And once it is cut, I'll start the trim painting marathon! Smiley

I'm going to head out for the night now... My brain is shutting down, I'm weaving in my chair and my eyes can barely focus. I'm going to go veg in my comfy armchair with my eagle blanket and my fluffy kitty.

Have a great night everyone. I will be back in for a bit in the morning then I'll be having another writing marathon. See y'all later. Cheesy

Getting various things caught up.
Working on dinner.
And, in the immortal words of Rudas Starblaze, thinking about "stuff" about which he says not to worry.
And I'm working on that but the nagging little (worry) bugger keeps coming in and biting me...

Skywise is home. Dinner is done and we've been discussing what I want/need to do to finish the mirror frame and the makeup table the materials for which we'll get Saturday.
I'm going to hold off ordering the wardrobe because it will have to be left in the yard -- no way we can get a 195 pound box down the basement stairs! -- opened and taken either to the Guest House or the basement a few pieces at at time and RAIN is expected several days this week! Undertaking that in a downpour would NOT be fun.
Anyway, I'm heading out. I'm gonna hit the ground running in the morning as I have a "HECK!!!!" of a lot to do!

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning.

Hubby is working all day today, and since I'll have the house to myself, I plan on diving into #7 again... I'll probably start out with the edit of what I wrote up yesterday and go from there.

Tomorrow is the memorial/benefit concert and I'm really starting to get excited! Cheesy I'm wondering just how nervous the guys are... I know they've been practicing a LOT over the last while. They'll do wonderfully in my mind but then again I tend to be biased. Tongue

I'm around for a while catching up then I'll be offline writing for the majority of the school day. COFFEE.............

It's Friday. Grin
This week has gone pretty well. I am getting comfortable in an office environment again, and I've learned Most of my job.
Beltaine celebration this weekend. May the coming season be fruitful for all.

KITTY!!  Smiley I'm so glad things are going well for you!!

Okay, my Big Bro posted something that is just gross in my opinion... Even grosser than my husband's smelly shoes, and those are bad enough to knock over a bull moose.... Smiley

Heading out to see if I can write now. I'm going to do a quick edit on what I wrote yesterday and then I'll be seeing what "clicks" to work on otherwise. Hoping to get more new material added.

I'll be back after Son gets home from school. Have a great day everyone! Cheesy

Morning!
Skywise's "loonie bird" solution is working as said bird did not attack the windows this morning and therefore our bedroom did NOT become "Feline Central" much to the Queen's delight. Our room is HER territory and the other cats enter on her sufferance!

I'll be in and out. Lots of stuff to do today. First up, tea and a bite to eat and then painting on the mirror frame. Then back down here to do a little on the makeup table and then... ick.... laundry!  Smiley We also have '"weather" moving in so I'd better get moving!

I'm back. This morning's painting is done, the brushes are clean and I've scrubbed the black paint off of my left hand.

The "weather" is getting closer but the storms seem to be getting weaker which is good.

I'm gonna have some tea before I head downstairs and work on the makeup table. I gots some cutting and gluing to do and I'll be movin things around while the laundry is chugging away.

The "weather" is nearly here and it has lost considerable strength as it has crossed the state. YAY!! It looks like I WILL be able to dye my hair after Skywise leaves.

The work I wanted to do on the makeup table top is done and it is ready to prime/paint as soon as the mirror frame is done and off the sawhorses. The SunLord is currently lying on the table top giving me ample justification for my decision that nothing much is going to be left on top of the makeup table that isn't 100% unbreakable! That boy takes up a LOT of room!

I'm back... I managed to get some editing out of the way, jotted down a LOT of ideas and got some new material added to #7. I also overdosed on coffee and such... The brain is MOOSHY and I'm still in the transition between "writing" and "mother/moderator" modes right now, so if I seem really out of it, that's why. Smiley

Eyes are so crossed they're tangled!!  Smiley

I just did a page count for the stuff I wrote up over the last couple of days...

TWELVE pages worth of NEW stuff added this week!!

No wonder why the brain is MOOSHY!!  Smiley

Congrats, VE!

Hair is dyed and I'm sitting here with it wrapped in a towel.

The second wave of rain is passing to the south so we shouldn't be getting any more rain today. Maybe this hayfield we call a yard will dry out enough to be mowed this weekend!

My hair is almost dry and I'm editing/tweaking Book 2 while waiting for it to be time to put another coat of paint on the mirror frame.

The hair is mostly dry.
The mirror frame is painted.
The corner blocks are in place -- and THAT job was a Smiley!
The bases that the fancy trim will go on have been cut to size and the trim will be cut to fit them before the night's over.
Storms keep popping up but they are consistently going either north or south of us.
I've finished going through the first seven chapters and "tightening" has taken out another page.
And I'm hungry.....

Morning.

It's the weekend........ FINALLY!! Hubby is working day shift, Son is playing on his one game console and I'm going to be around between doing housework and other things.

Today is the Memorial Jam/Concert that will be featuring a lot of local talent, including the band who I quote in my signature, Whom Gods Destroy. Things kick off at 1 p.m. Atlantic time and wrap up around 1 a.m. tomorrow morning.

I am going to the latter part of it, to show my support for WGD... Not just because I love their music but because I've known all three of the members since I was in my teens! LOL They're really nice guys and extremely talented musicians... I've shared the information for the Jam on my FB profile (the one with my real name on it) and WGD's set list for their appearance. Anyone local who wants to go, look for me during the performance right before WGD comes on (Billion Dollar Alice), I'll be there! Cheesy

Time to get caught up and get another COFFEE... I'll be around until 3:30-4 my time, after that I'll be getting ready for tonight! Cheesy
