I just don't get it? I woke up at 2:30am and thought I heard something, I stuck my head out the front door and sure enough I could hear someone a BLOCK away yelling at a female, then the female yelling back....HOW IN THE WORLD does someone get to the point when they feel that it is OK to treat someone as less than an animal? Doors slamming? people yelling at each other? things being thrown? I just don't GET IT!!
I have said it before, thank God for my boring and mundane life!
Nothing major going on today, a bit of cleaning, the aquarium needs some fresh water in it, a bit of picking up, vacuume the floor and I should be done.
On the plus side I was not woke up today at 5:45am by a little fella needing to use the phone! MUCH better!
Driving by a Camaro the other day I truely wished I was working, this car was about half way to being a hotrod! OOH! mid 90's body, fiberglass 6" lift hood, the thing was decent! It needed a paint job really bad, but the potential was there! HA! too bad the money wasn't!
I guess I should head off for now, things to do ya know!
Later all!

Getting closer
The time to start my classses at GRCC is growing closer, I hope to have everything taken care of by Wednesday of this week although I may need to get tested to see if I am A.D.D.
I already know that I am A.D.D. so there is no question there. This may be a help for me with the college? there may be a different way they do things? who knows?
My classes start on May 4th. there is a first and second half of the session, two classes the first half and one for the second for the moment, that I HOPE changes by the time the second half starts, I want to get as many classes as I can done as SOON as I can.
My choice turned out to be business administration, there are a few different positions that I could get into with even the associates degree. I am still seeking work however, I would rather be working than going to school, that is for sure.
I hear that this is going to be the only day this week that is going to be really nice? then back to the winter weather? NO please! I'd rather have the nice WARM air.
Iam at the library at the moment, I needed to get out of the house for a while (YEAH I JUST got back from G.R.) But I needed to get out for a little while and the library has wireless internet, so here I am!
I have four weeks till classes start, in that time I'd LIKE to repair the Stratus, it needs a new wheel bearing in the front end and could use a tune-up, I guess I'll see if the money is there or not? I also need to replae the idler arm on the Bravada, although I have that part already, it just got too cold out to do the work, not in the snow thankyou!
So! now you know! I have a VERY boring and mundane little life! and I LIKE it that way!
See ya later!

Friday
I decided to get some more yard work done yesterday thinking it would be easy since I had raked the entire lawn last October and took care of what I removed, I was WRONG! LOL! There was quite a bit of dead grass on the lawn, that piled up quickly but was easy to take care of. When I went into the lower yard however it was a different story, there was a large amount of branches, old walnut's and just STUFF on the ground. I use a 4'x6' tarp to drag what I rake up to the curb, nine full loads in the backyard alone. The yard will look good for a little while anyhow, those squirrels make quite the mess when they eat, I hope it is not as bad later this fall? six or seven more loads? NO thanks!
There is some more yard work that needs to be done yet, there are two shrubs that are FAR too overgrown to trim back that need to be removed and then there are a few junk trees that need to disappear, as much as I like trees, these will end up causing problems in the future.
I will need to plant some grass seed in the lower yard this season also, I didn't keep up on it like I should have and now there are large bare spots where the leaves set too long and killed what little grass was there. I'm already weighing my options on how to make the yard look it's best.
I made the call yesterday for my intake appointment, I hope to hear something today about it, going back to college is not my first option, but unfortunately it is the ONLY one at the moment.

So what to do? I cleaned the house yesterday, did two loads of laundry, changed the sheets on the bed, worked on two vans, raked the front yard, went to Bible study at Church, it was a NICE day!
Today, a couple of piddly things to do and another load of laundry, I had a coat and a few things that needed cleaned up, other than some testing at a college today there's not too much going on.
51 for a high today, C'mon warmer air! I'm waiting for ya!

There are like 38 day's now till the lake opens and I can't wait! I want to go camping! I LOVE camping! The place is going to need a thourough cleaning though, it ALWAYS does! I need to clean the carpet or REPLACE it this season. I've had the trailer for 13 years now and never replaced the carpet, so it's about time.

The second day of spring? uh....yeah?
So it is supposed to be the second day of spring, well tell that to the half inch of snow on the ground! GAK! I thought we were done with that stuff?
The snow should melt quickly today, the temperature is already 32, but seeing it was kinda scary! EEP! WINTER! AHHHH!! LOL!
This has been a long winter, not because it was cold, not because it was the second snowiest winter on record and not because there was little or no sunshine in January, it was because I don't have a job and it has been BORING to say the least! I've done a TON of work in and outside of the house, MANY projects accomplished and more to do, but I want to work and not set around on my ever growing bottom!
I have no idea what this spring will hold for me? I'd like to have my former employer call me in and rehire me, but I don't see that happening for a long time. I actualy miss my position, it was stressfull but it was a hoot, always something going on! I can deal with that.
I'll post a picture of the snow a little later, the computer I'm on doesn't have a card reader in it.

Finishing the kitchen!
Before:
After:
My brother came over today and helped me finish the kitchen, it's a good thing too! he had a MUCH better idea for the step up than I did, and it looks nice!
I have to put in 3/4" quarter round around the room yet, but that can wait a day or two! For now the room looks very good!
The flooring came from a house that had a fire, all I had to do was clean it up and buy $45 in trim. I guess recycling can be a good thing? LOL
Time to head off, I REALLY need a cup of COFFEE!!!

The kitchen
I worked in the kitchen today installing the new/used laminate floor, I managed to get all but four feet of it done. I managed to get two of the doorway transitions installed also, the third will need to be finessed in. There is four more feet to do yet, but I'll need some help with that
What a long day it turned out to be, I am really sore and tired, I will be glad to get to bed today.
Talk to you later all!

70 degrees?
Say it is true! 70 today for a high? OH PLEASE!
It certainly looks like the begining of a NICE day, the sun peaked over the trees at 8:00am and is looking warm!
I put the first coat of paint on the new drywall today, it is not perfect (Not a straight wall in the house!) but it looks better than two big holes in the wall did! There are things to do today or I would start on the new flooring in the kitchen/dining room, I have to remove the ANCIENT carpet that is there now, that should be a pain, I already know I will need to scrape the floor once it is up, there is some nasty old foam backing on the carpet that has come off.
The fish seem to like the new wallpaper in the dining side of the room, there is like twice the light there was so they get to play in it. The Red Wag Platty's seem to be doing fine, I'd like to get a couple more of those, they're a cool fish.
It is once again time for a cup of coffee! something has to get my brain going!
Later all! I'll post a picture of the wall once I get a second coat on it.

The flooring
I finished cleaning the flooring today, four hours of nasty work but it paid off, I have a laminate floor that is not perfect, but it looks good and it is MUCH better than what is there now. I'd bet the carpet in the kitchen/dining room is nearly as old as I am! NO kidding!
I used a product called Krud Kutter (Spelled that way) from Lowes, and it worked REALLY well! although I should have bought the bottle, not the half gallon jug! YEESH! WAY too much left in it! I guess it is a get ahead for my next project?
No callback for that second interview yet, I am SO impatient! YEESH! I wanted to start YESTERDAY! HA! God will provide, He ALWAYS has!
I am tired and my body and my brain both hurt tonight, catch you later all!

What do ya know?
Yesterday I called the contractor that had worked on my house some time ago and asked for a couple of pieces of scrap drywall, I had to repair a couple of spots in the laundry room. He said he had a couple for me and I went up to pick them up. I have NO idea WHY the last owner opened the wall up! but there were two 9"x24" openings in the wall, the lower one had something pushed up against it (before I moved in) and it collapsed the wall up 48" so one big piece and one small piece had to be replced.
While we were talking I told him that I wanted to replace the kitchen floor but didn't have the moola to accomplish this, at that point he showed me some flooring that he took out of the house he was working on (Laminate!) and said I could have it if I wanted it! COOL! the house had a fire but the flooring wasn't burned, it only had soot on it! I went back to my house and measured everything out and there was enough! WOO-HOO!!!! I went back up and snagged it right up!
This picture shows one clean and one dirty, it will take some work to clean the boards, I can't just wipe them off, they kinda look NASTY at the moment! YEESH! I managed to get like 10 or 12 done already, and while they are not brand new perfect they are FAR better than what is on the floor at the moment, God has provided once again! There is NO WAY I could have purchased those at the moment! not even enough money! GOD IS GOOD!!!
I layed down a few boards to see what it will look like, much brighter than the carpet that is in the kitchen/diningroom now!
Time for another cup of coffee and some migraine pills, I've been fighting this one for three days now, I hope to win SOON!
Later all!

Waiting! GAK!
Waiting, waiting, waiting! LOL! No callback on the first interview yet, I can't WAIT to hear back! I want this job!
If I get this job it will all have started from having surgery! I was off for three week's and needed womething to do, SO I got the internet! DIALUP! OOOHHH!!!!! LOL! (MUCH faster now! 3Mb.)
Anyhow, after playing around I bought a second computer that died and I learned how to fix it myself and here we are now, ten years later! a job from it? that would be just TOO cool!
I would have started a buisness from it, but the cost of parts went WAY up, there's no way to make a living on that alone, it's nice as a way to make a few bucks, but other than that? NOPE!
If I had a way to get used laptops at wholesale I could make some decent money, everybody wants them, just no idea where to get them cheap, E-bay used to be a good place, not any more, shipping is STUPID high, and people are greedy!
I should head of for now, things to do!

The interview
I had my first of two interviews today and it went well! my information was forwarded to the next person who will interview me. I am praying that I get that call tomorrow! I would LOVE to be able to walk into Church Sunday and say "THANK THE LORD! I HAVE A JOB!!!"
I may try to post picture of the bathroom, it is narrow, so I don't think I'll be able to get a good picture of it? we'll see I guess!
Things to do: replace some damaged drywall in the washroom, repair some loose wallpaper in the bathroom, replace a small missing piece of baseboard and I'll be DONE! Some of what I've done has been "At the moment" work, I don't have the money to replace the ceiling in the laundry room, there is paneling there now and I have NO idea how good or bad it is under it. The kitchen carpet wil need to wait till I am working once again, then there's the deck I'd like to build outside the back door and insulate and drywall the back storage room, and buy more gravel to put in the drive so it doesn't have MUDD puddles in it.......there will ALWAYS be something to get done here! I LIKE that! keeps me busy!
It is GOOD to have goals! I MUST have goals! LOL! go figure!
TTYL ALL!

Inteview time!
I have a job interview tomorrow, my first in 17 years! GAK! I'm not nervouse or anything, if this is the job God has for me I will get it, God has made things clear to me before, He will again.
I've been working on the house for a month now and all along I've had the feeling that I HAD to get it done as quick as I could because when I completed the house something BIG would happen.....we'll see tomorrow! I want this job! It will be the begining of reinventing myself into something different.
I worked in the bathroom today, I painted the wall and the trim, I still have more work to be done, I have to fix some wallpaper and steam clean around the toilet and sink but that wont take too long and the drywall in the laundry room wont be too difficult either........The main work is DONE! after a MONTH of work the big stuff is DONE! YES!
I should head off for now, things to think about.

The washroom
Before:
After:
I'm working in the laundry room today, I have some drywall repair to do yet but I still painted it since I had things all moved around anyhow. I need to touch-up a couple of spots on the white trim yet, and replace that missing drywall (WHY is it missing anyhow? NOTHING is there!)
Only one room to go! YES! I need to finish the laundry room first, but that shouldn't be too difficult.
It has been a nice day so far! the sun is SHINING! and it is nearly 50! I can SO deal with that at the moment, the sun can be healing and it is working at the moment.

Kitchen/Diningroom picture
Nothing in the kitchen side was changed, while I'd like some new flooring, what I have now will do until I find my next job. What I need and what I want can be two VERY different things! LOL! 
\
\ Here is the completed kitchen, $30 for wallpaper and $15 for the two new light fixtures on the wall. Once again I must say God is good! I purchased the wallpaper at less than half price and accidentally found the light fixtures, they were hid at the top of a HUGE display in the corner where you could barely see them, they were the only one's that would work with my wiring setup. One needed a switch in it and the other needed a wall mounted switch.
Needless to say the kitchen/dining room is MUCH brighter than it was! I can make it daylight in there now!
Another trick I thought up? over the kitchen sink there is a fluorescent fixture mounted behind a panel, the back of the panel was dark so it didn't reflect the light well, so I painted the back of the panel white, now it reflects the light and it is brighter! light is GOOD!
I'd still like to paint the ceiling, but I'm not sure about how to do it, there are crevasses in between the panels that a roller cannot reach, SO! how to get it right? still thinking about that!
I should head off for now, coffee's calling and I need to get ready for Church!

YUP! the kitchen is DONE! I finished painting and reinstalling the trim today, one more project down.
I am feeling MUCH better than I did when I woke up, I had a nasty migraine..I took the med's and went back to bed and slept for a few hours the woke up all better.I can deal with that!
The day was dark and dreary, not complaining though! it was like 40 degrees! LOL!
I'm not sure which project will be ext, the washroom or the bathroom! probably the bathroom, I only need to paint half of the bathrooom and paint the trim there. There is a bit of drywall repair, a spot 6" square that was repaired some time ago, but not right. It will look MUCH better in the bathroom! the PINK will be gone! LOL! NO more PINK!!
Time to head off for now!

Nearly done
I worked on the kitchen today, I half emptied the fish tank and moved it to complete the wallpaper. I still need to paint and replace the trim around the ceiling and paint the corner trim.
It feels good to have the kitchen/diningroom nearly done, with the two new $7 fixtures there is at least twice the lightin the room.
I have a early meeting tomorrow and I'll need to get up very early, fun, fun! I am still not sure what school to go to? a trade school where I get the certification, or a college with a associates degree? what to do?
I will find out more about that tomorrow morning hopefully I hope to pick up more paint for the ceiling, washrooom and bathroom tomorrow also, without the tax return that would not happen.
Guess I should head off for now, I am tired already.

Puttering about the house
Not too much on the plate today, I'm waiting for assistance with the aquarium...had to have a 29 gallon tank....
Although I purchased border for the kitchen I like the look of the wallpaper by itself, so no border.
I don't believe there is a straight wall in this house! CRIMANY! there's nothing I can do about it, so I better just get over it! LOL! OC me! It isn't the exterior wall's, it's the interior......MAN! someone was drinking when the put up the interior walls! NO doubt about that! LOL
SO! I am bored for the moment! I picked up in the yard, cleaned the house, washed the windows inside and out, did a load of laundry, fixed two pieces of border that pulled off and did a bit of minor wallpapering...STILL bored! BOY do I miss having 34+ people to keep an eye on! THAT kept me BUSY! AND!!! I LIKED it!!
It will be OK though, there is a computer coming that needs a DVD drive installed, that will take up a couple of minutes! YEESH!
I'll post more later, I'll see what happens today!

Back to the wallpaper, Chronicals of Narnia
I went back to the kitchen and started working on the wallpaper, I have all but five feet done but will have to wait untill I move the fishtank before I can finish this project. The tank is a 29 gallon tank, so I cannot move it by myself, the thing weighs around 200 pounds full, I'll need to half empty it first.
I watched some of the old BBC Narnia movies today, I forgot how much I liked them (The movies and the Chronicals of Narnia)
I still have not found out if I can paint the tile ceiling or not, it could use a good coat of paint....
So why all this work on the house? well number one? I am O.C. over the moon right now because I'm not working, I need to be doing something ALL the time. I'm kinda driving myself nut's right now, but I'll keep going! I am nearly DONE!
Is there something behind all of this work? NO idea! guess I'll see what happens!
Yeah! I'm a NUT! but in a good way....I GUESS!! LOL!
I HOPE that the kitchen can be completed tomorrow, that would SO satisfy my O.C. issues!
About the job situation....I have put in over 30 resumes in the last eight weeks not a single callback, so it looks like I will be going back to college. I would truely rather work, back in my old position, with my seniority, with my pay and the confidence that my peers had for me, but that is NOT possible with the condition of the economy.
Even if the economy were to be perfect starting tomorrow, it would be MONTHS before anything happened. The DRAMA QUEEN COWARDS on wallstreet are the one's who caused this mess we are in, we should fire them ALL and start over! we'd be better off! LOL!
I FEEL GOOD! the house is looking decent!
Later all!
Me!

Switching projects
I spent a couple of days stripping the walls in the Kitchen/Dining area, I needed to take a break from that and switch to another project. I chose to paint the baseboard in my bedroom (I installed the half that was missing) painted the cabinet, door and door frame in the bathroom and the ceiling in the washroom. The washroom ceiling is paneled, I have no idea what is behing the paneling and I don't have the money to do any major repairs so I painted it white, two coats made a BIG difference in how that room looked!
Three more projects done, five to complete:
Washroom walls Paint (Fix some drywall there too)
Kitchen walls Wallpaper
Kitchen ceiling (Tiled, so I need to find out how to paint it right)
Bathroom walls (Strip wallpaper and paint trim)
Bathroom ceiling Paint
If I can complete these five tasks, the entire interior of the house will have been worked on...God is GOOD!!
Later all!
