st. pat's

okay.. so st. pats is coming up and I am reminded of how things use to be. when I was a kid and I use to dance. i miss it. it was fun, great exercise, but how in the hell at the age of 35 am I so messed up and sore.  I really screwed my hand up painting last week and have to take it easy for awhile ... so back down on the video games... no wii.

a year ago I proposed to janice.  it's hard to believe that it was that long ago. but the time has gone by really fast. a year later, we're in a house! and getting ready for our wedding. it's hard to see other people I know get married before us though.  I know one person that got engaged in sept and will be married in june. insane. 

it's saturday. this week came and went. was nothing fantastic. felt like I didn't get much done around here.  but I did. the folks come next week so I have to step things up a bit and do the guest room.  I think we found a color that will look nice.  I hope we're right. ;-)

anyhow... to wish you all a st. pats, cause I know no one reads this... ha ha ha.. here's a clip from christmas past.  1987.

and more recently;

Don't send a lame St. Patrick's Day eCard. Try JibJab Sendables!

settling in....

okay..

so I just got through painting the bedroom and I'm tired. I've done the hall, I've hired a guy for the living room and dining room (I don't have the strength).  It's all coming together, very slowly.  I'm at the point that I need to find something to do, as all this craziness is coming to over and past.  

I'm not the greatest to blog. I will admit.  but when I do, i will. what's next on the agenda? I am going to buy a lawnmower tomorrow, do the lawns and then relax until next week when I am ready to do my last room, the guest room.  I think the best coarse of action for that room is do a relaxation room.  the same colors that we had at riverside for that room.

now it's friday night. I got nothing to do, I'm tired .. and have Top Gun on TV.  I'm ready to wind down for the weekend.
