Sweet Mother I've had a productive day, and its only 4! Walmart for general stuff that was missing, check! Half Price Books for more books, Check! Grocery, Check! Powerball, Check! Bring the fly-wheel bike to the basement, check! Put together the bookshelf, Check! AND I managed to remember to put the chicken in the crock pot!
However I'm a tad sweaty now which we all know I dislike. So I'm taking a break and writing this. You know there are definite advantages of being 5'3 and having the bookshelf you're building be like 6', do you know what it is? Its that you can assemble it on the ground, dont put teh backing on and stand it upright while stepping through it without fear of hitting your head... possibly everyone could do that but whatever. Only problem? I underestimated my ability to budge the gas fireplace in the corner, its wrought iron, i know i know, but i thought i could at least move it against the wall, its sitting kitty corner... and no its not hooked up, never has been previous owners put it on the opposite end of teh room to the gas line, which yeah that was dumb of them and I didnt feel like hooking it up. Now I gotta move it, its heavy! I'll figure something out, righ tnow the shelf is sitting at the end of the entertainment center and i threw a sheet over it in hopes to discourage the cats from climbing, because that'd be a disaster....
