"my life is a to do list"
A friend of mine reminded me that her blog used to be called that recently and I have to say: I'm feeling it. My life at work AND and home is a list of things that need to get done so that more stuff can get done.
At some point I'll get off this crazy train and look around.
My husband is sick. And given that for the first time since I can remember in our relationship he felt sick before I told him that he smelled sick (it's a weird super power I normally have - I can tell when his immune system is kicking it into high gear b/c he smells different, not bad, just a very specific different that always means he's sick) I'm probably not far behind him in getting ill.
He's trying to use today to rest, but secretly I hope he and I can get a lot of random stuff done today. I have coffee brewing right now to try and make that happen. I know, he needs to rest. I'm not talking about getting hard stuff done, mostly computer stuff and a few little cleaning things done around the house (like laundry, we have like zero clean clothes right now).
Oh - and speaking of to-do list items that don't get done. We're finally hiring a man to sand and stain our deck for us. It'll cost us but at the rate we were going we were prepping about a 1 square foot an hour and with over 300sqft of deck surface - this just wasn't getting done. the guy is counter sinking the nails sanding with a power sander (he assures us he can do this without killing everything living in our yard - including our fish) and then staining our deck. All we need to do is pay the man and pick a stain. We might be able to have a late summer (mid-september) bbq on our deck.
