It's been a while since i've posted, so i thought i should put out a little update. Things are crazy here, as usual. I honestly could not tell you what keeps me busy, but something does.
I've been continuing work on the house, as always. My latest project continues to be my bedroom. Saturday afternoon was spent painting my ceiling. It is amazing how gross and not white the ceiling gets over several years time! In fact, gross is a good word for it. Just refereshing the ceiling alone was a great step. Sunday night I moved on to working on the actual walls. Since then i've been trying to do a wall a night. it has kept me busy. it is amazing how long it takes to get each wall properly taped and then painted. or, perhaps i am just my father's child and i'm anal and want it done right, so it takes forever. last night i finished getting the first coat on the last wall in the bedroom. meanwhile the vanity area has two coats on it already! This weekend we'll finish getting the paint on, thank goodness! I'm tired of sleeping in the living room. I miss my bed. Actually, i tried sleeping in the spare room one night. i quit after that. it was HORRIBLE. i don't know where my parents got the matressses for kate's bed, but i pity the fool who gets stuck sleeping on them!
Speaking of painting, we had an incident the other night. Daisy Dogg had done a GREAT job. She was just keeping out of the paint, just sitting in the closet watching what was going on. Well, the other night she decided to be a little more proactive and help her mama out. She decided the best way to help was to use her butt and her little tail to spread paint. She backed herself up on the wall and got a blue butt! I tried to take a picture, but she stay still long enough for me to take a picture from behind. I guess she is enough of a lady to know that the camera adds ten pounds, and she didn't want phots of her butt circulating the internet!

Daisy Blue Butt... she is a hoot. It is amazing that you don't have to pen her up, she is a good dog. I am a little bitter I don't have Big 10 network on my cable, seriously considering switching to Direct TV or Dish. Thanfully I got to watch the Illini victory over Penn State in person... it was sweet!
