*Like It or Not...This Is Me*

So busy and so very sore...

Ughhh...I am so sore and tired right about now.  I thought it was going to be a nice relaxing weekend but...

My sister decides we need to get started on the painting.  We prime things with the first coat.  Ok, well now in some areas we needed 2 and 3 coats...grrr damn walls just soaked it up like mad.  Then we paint the one wall...2 coats in antique white.  Looks pretty damn good I must say.  I thought we would be painting today but sister decided we had to go look at carpeting...no good, have to wait at minimum 2 weeks.  We found what we liked and so we may just go with it.  They just don't want to be walking on hard floor for that long.  WTF, I said...I would wait that long for new carpeting if I had to...spoilied babies.   Oh, in case you were wondering, we are re-doing my mothers' livingroom for her.  I have to wait till hubby can go out there and get his ass up on the ladder to paint the catherdral ceilings, like I am going to get my fat ass up there...NOT!!!  All in all, it will  be worth it for my mother at least.  My knee is in so much pain I can barely walk.  But I do it for my mother.  Last night I came home and had a beer and crashed till 10AM this morning.  I was a bit tired!

She, my mother, took my sis and I out for Red Lobster.  I had rock lobster and steak(rare)...oh so good.  I want to raise lobsters now just so I have tons to eat-lol.  That was so nice of her.  She said it was for all our hard work this past weekend.  Uhhh...we have not even got half of it done.

My sister is leaving for Minneapolis tomorrow(for training) and I get the nephew till Wed or Thurs.  Grrr...I still have to go out to my moms and paint so he better be good or else whoop butt time! 

Just called my other sis-in-law to see if hubby left yet or not and they did and should be here soon.  As I was talking to her my other sis-in-law called and asked if I would go over to her place to pick my son up.  He went with them as we have no big cars and I needed a car for here.  Oh well, I thought I was going to relax a little bit.

When I was at Lowes' I picked up some paint for my kitchen...yes I have not finished that yet.  I bought candy corn orange...don't start freaking out till I tell ya.  That goes under the plaster and very little of it will show through so yeah...:P  It was on sale and I even got a $5 rebate on it!  YAY for saving money!!!

Well I have to leave to go get the son and so I will bore you all later with my wonderfully boring life... :o)
