- stripped wallpaper in the kitchen and prepped walls for paint
- picked out a paint color, finally
- painted kitchen a sagey green
- oiled the kitchen cabinets, instead of replacing the beasts
- cleaned the house. I mean, really cleaned it
Then we had a party! Nothing like having 15 people over to inspire a few projects and a thorough cleaning.
We worked our "regular" jobs all day then came home and worked on the kitchen until at least 10. We did that little routine for about 5 or 6 days in a row. That's the way to get shit done, just do it.
Then, the wine party. It was really pretty cool. It sounds kind of snobby and top-drawer, but it ended up being a lot of fun. It seemed a lot less snobby, at least, after I got a few small glasses of wine under my belt.
Now, this week it will be a little crazy too. I had a big presentation this morning, along with the requisite lack of sleep. And I leave at zero am on Thursday to work an apt. assoc. trade show in Nashville. I'm pretty excited about that!
Then back to Cleveland late nite Friday. Whirlwind 3 weeks, huh?

Wine and snobbery at the same local? hmmmmm. With the growth of microbeers I bet we could find the same on the malted side - anyway - sounds like you've got lots going on - as my guide has said, 'And now I must confess, I could use some rest
I can't run at this pace very long
Yes it's quite insane, I think it hurts my brain
But it cleans me out and then I can go on' - JB - Trying to Reason with Hurricane Season - 1974 - still rings true for me.
...Or, say, a whirlwind two months? Howsabout that birthday party? I understand someone turned 40?
...and then we went to an Ohio State game with Uncle Crappy and The Wife ... and then we watched the Indians in the playoffs ... and then the Browns started winning ... and then it was Thanksgiving...
