The last few days have been good, and I blame the weather. The stir crazy/cabin fever has for the time been lifted. Just to open up windows and let air in, made all the difference.
Today I ran the air conditioner in my car.
I could have cried.
So this week the orphanage took on a bit of spring cleaning. We spent hours cleaning and re-arranging our living room. I had been saying for awhile that we needed some new feng shui because the cold weather had been so suffocating. Or I guess I felt I we needed to do something to make Tony stop pacing. We moved the furniture around a million times, but something was always off. Until finally we brought in the bath tub.
So there's this bath tub that has been sitting behind our garage for (I'm going to guess) years. It's painted red, white, and blue and one side of it is completely rusted to hell. So we shoveled all the snow out of it, brought it inside, and spent an hour bleaching the whole thing out. We filled it with pillows, blankets, and a picture of Bach.
It really ties the whole room together.
There was also a ladder behind our garage so we've spent a lot of time these last few days up on the roof. I felt like I could lay up there all day, the sun, I tell you THE SUN.
It's supposed to get cold again, and I spit on cold.
Went to Spring Brook Nature Center too, there was still a lot of snow on the trails, but it was so warm out. We went up to the train tracks, and smashed a penny when the train went by. I had never done that before. The train was going so fast the wind of it knocked me back a few steps.
I think I saw a goose that was drunk too.
Later that night I went to Majors with Jimmy and Tony, and ran into Stormi - who I hadn't seen in eons. I have a hard time liking Majors but had a hell of a time with the company.
Monday Madness was last night, which is always supreme. Over the years Monday's have become my official fun day. Davey is always in town, and it's the one night of the week everyone is around. So we took on the 34oz, and then played holdem. I've gotten rusty, I don't think I've played a whole game since the cabin.
All in all I am happy to say I was able to spend a lot of time out in the good weather, summer can't come soon enough.
