Another supply teaching job (morning only). On the way home I bought some ceiling tiles (there are a few that need to be replaced in my Daughter’s new bedroom) caulking and another paint roller.

I spent the afternoon cleaning out the rest of the “stuff” in the bedroom, (with wine). When my Farmer came home he took down the shelves, and the damaged ceiling tiles. The tiles I bought don’t match, so I’m going to see if I can exchange them for some that are a closer match. Then I painted (with wine).

After supper I found the caramilk bar. I ate it while I painted some more. It's not as good as a Lindt. I quit painting at 9.

Wow, I'm impressed by the funky curls too! (couldn't see the pic until tonight). I like it!

Wine pairs well with painting. That's pretty much a fact.

Thanks. I posted it through the MDA site instead of Flickr. That way only members can see it.

(Isn't it funny - and annoying - that I've been a MDA member for over a year and I still have to wait for moderator approval of a photo of my new hair style, but a spammer can post on our journals??????)

Yes it does!

I tried a chin up today, just to see what I could do. If I start with my arms at a 90-degree angle, I can pull up and then slowly lower all the way down!! Imagine what I could do if I practiced every day?!?!

I worked with my Home Instruction Student for the morning and I was planning on painting when I got home but my Daughter was watching the last Harry Potter DVD, so I joined her. She had to work at 4, so she drove (I rode) and then I got a few groceries. I had red wine and Brie while waiting for my Farmer to come home.

After supper I painted (from 7-10) I did the second coat on My Daughter’s new bedroom. I drank wine and ate little pieces of Lindt while painting.

Saturday:
Food
mall salad
red wine
an awesome buffet: fresh veggies, broccoli salad, roasted sweet potatoes, chicken breast, excellent roast beef (I sent my Farmer back up for another piece for me), and the dessert table was as long as the main course table. I only had the fresh fruit, a date square and the most excellent New York style cheesecake (with dark chocolate on top)
more red wine

Avoid Poisons & Stupid Mistakes
umm. I had a lot of red wine. Some in the afternoon while I painted trim. Two glasses before supper, then I shared a bottle of red with a guy at our table, then I had 2 (or 3...) more through the evening...

I wore my Daughter's cute little black shoe boots (with a peek toe) They had really high heels and made me wobble (just a little) I danced anyway, even though my feet were killing me by the end of the evening.

The last song the band played was "Mustang Sally". I got up on stage with them (I didn't know the band) and sang the "ride Sally ride" parts

Does dancing count?

I drove My Daughter to London and we bought trim and floor paint, and looked at dresses for me. I bought a scarf (to wear with one of the dresses I bought the other day) and some black tights. We were back home by 1:30 and started painting. At 3:30 I quit painting and got ready. It was my Farmer's 30th college anniversary dinner.

As I noted in the Avoid Poisons & Stupid Mistakes section, I drank a lot of wine.
This wine:

Woo, good to see you've survived the day!

Sounds like a hella fun evening, regardless .

Early this morning, I wasn't so sure I'd survive...

I had a headache around 6 this morning. Advil, water and back into bed.
More trim painting this afternoon.

Tonight we were “modifying” some ceiling tiles I’d bought to replace in the bedroom ceiling. We can’t get the same pattern, so I bought plain tiles and we are attempting to create the same pattern. I applied a thin layer of drywall mud to the tiles and them my Daughter used an old comb to create the pattern.

I was sitting cross legged on the floor and I turned slightly to reach another tile when my back screamed at me Sharp shooting pains up both sides of my spine. So now I can barely move.

It Sucks.
That's when I got out the Lindt
