Done, in many ways.

The home improvements are done. I am done. I just got out of the bath and I set aside my somewhat more lofty novel (Reading Lolita in Tehran) for the less brain empowering Lucky's Lady by Tami Hoag (a suspense thriller, schlock, but decent schlock for a tired brain).

Today was a bizarre day - nothing really Sunday about it. Ken and I got up at 6:30 AM!!! and went with my dad to the Flea Market. I snagged a few good buys (nice fleece, a few more plants - see I told you they see me coming - and some fresh off of the farm veggies, and a fiestaware plate). Gotta love what turns up at the market.. then coffee and a side trip to the Casino. AHEM. Well, I got great distance off of a fiver in a nickel machine - "Reel Em In". Normally they see me coming, like the gardeners, but this morning that fiver was good for about half an hour of slighty cheesy entertainment at 9:30 on a Sunday morning.

Yup, we are a little strange us bunch!

Home for brunch, and then back at 'er for the final touchups. Painting bathrooms are brutal, even when they are small - took me hours, but the painting is DONE. I think I have painted most of my body at some point over this weekend, and retired a t-shirt that had its own personality. Fricken hell. Well, the team came together, even if took my mom 2 hours to iron curtains today?!

I am tired. Weekend? What weekend?! Work isn't nearly this tiring!!!! I think I am heading to bed shortly..

Thanks for the virtual hugs in my blog. I LOVE being able to vent my spleen. Har.

Get some rest, girl. It's the dreaded M-day tomorrow.

Gack.
