And Of Course You Can't Become If You Only Say What You Would Have Done

Here is a recycled photo of the old Greyhound bus station that they tore down last Spring.

Man, tonight was soooo much better than the last week has been for me. This time, partly because of the weather. Coadster was supposed to have a show choir benefit performance for Dollars for Scholars, but it got canceled because of the weather. So, I had a whole night where I didn't have to try and fix something or go anywhere. It's amazing all the shit you can get done with one of those nights.

Mostly, I concentrated on my kitchen. My counters are being delivered tomorrow at 3. My friends won't be able to install them for another few weeks, but that's okay. I really want to get my kitchen painted and most of the cabinets primed, sanded and painted before they're installed anyway, I just have to figure out where and how to store them. My friend Billy who is going to install them for me said they need to be on a flat surface, so they don't get warped or anything. So, I have to measure some stuff still tonight.

Anyway, as I mentioned yesterday, the rest of my weekend is a blank slate. I definitely want to get some projects done and go running, but other than that, I have no idea what the hell else I'll be up to.

How about you guys? Will you be figuring out where to store stuff or going along with things as they come at you?

We have a new oven being delivered tomorrow, and I will be installing that.

Good times, good times...

Man, you are totally going to town on that new home of yours! Good job!

I can't remember the last time something was cancelled here because of bad weather - something inside at least.

Glad you got a quiet evening...I hope you find your weekend as relaxing as you want it to be :-)

I work Saturday and it should be a really busy day, but at least it will go fast. Sunday is all up in the air. Figuratively.

Churlita,
Off this weekend. Hurray!
No plans; Momma's four hours away through the snowbelt playin' grandma. Guess I'll have to entertain myself.

I think tonight and tomorrow will consist of relaxing and doing various stuff at home. Then Sunday I'll probably visit my mom with some McDonald's. She's been craving chicken nuggets and I think that would taste really good on a Winter day.

Doing a whirlwind tour of NJ. Mom visit, party, friend visit.

I'm looking forward to the January thaw on it's way. Won't 30 degrees above zero feel like a miracle??

I can't wait to see the new cabinets! Wouldn't it be cool if I saw them in person. I really have to get back to my old stomping ground! Hoping to make more room in my life this year!
