projects and plans

apparently i'm a blogging fool today. i took the day off from work to--well, to work at home, but also take care of a ton of things that have been left undone and which constantly nag me from the back burner in my head. some of them sound like ghosts, others are more like drill sergeants. but they're there. so i'm trying to knock a few down to quell the onslaught.


first things first. i've been meaning to put pix up of our new place fa-EVAH, so here's the house:
note: american flag courtesy of the landlord. go patriotism. i'm debating whether to slap an obama head on it to advertise, but i don't think that Mr. Lee would ever come over again.
if the financial situation was better, i'd be trying to talk the landlord into selling. but it still rocks, even as a rental. more pics here



other projects include, but are not limited to:
-start blog. check.
-uploading a ton of pix to send to jenny p and for posting to the web. this one has been completed too. woo hoo!
-picking up the lawnmower from the repair place. if you're around gville, Sapp's rocks. don't waste your time someplace corporate. they're so O.G. that they don't have a website, but if you're local you know who i mean.
-mowing the lawn. hopefully i'll get some help from KGB on this one.


for the long term:
-installing the free plants that Mr. Lee brought over a month ago right after we moved in. this involves not only round up (yay!) but also weeding (boo). we'll see if this happens.
-making this (with my own modifications, of course). i have the stuff from ikea for it, just need to decide on a stain color, hardware, and drawer liner. i also have to coordinate with sassy crafter so that she doesn't send me bad crafting mojo for making it without her. i don't expect to finish this today, it's more of a long term thing.
and of course, two landscape designs that have been haunting my existence for a couple of months now--well, one for a couple of months. the other is currently on schedule.

what is that thing that causes people to have unnaturally high expectations of what they can accomplish in one day? ...if i'd stayed in counseling longer, maybe i could've worked that one out.
