wren08There is not going to be an Unplugged post this weekend. I had us scheduled for the National Cornbread festival in South Pittsburgh but it's a 90% chance of rain today (and thunderstorms) and I still have a nasty nasty cold. Ok, I'm stubborn, not stupid!
Mom doesn't want us to go because she's heard on the news that there will be gang related violence there. Um, yeah, right. In South Pittsburgh. At the Cornbread festival. Gangs. Does not compute, sorry.
In other news, I got the paint for the living room (25% off coupon in the paper last week- wOOt!) so we will probably spend the day taking movies down and sorting them and maybe get some of the shelves down. I've decided that I'm going to paint the hall in a light colour on the top (my gallery) and then have a chair rail and the lower half painted in the same manner as the living room. I'd love to panel it... but that's not in my budget and probably never could be. Paneling would have to be cherry to match the floor- even cherry beadboard is very expensive!
80s is watching Leverage with me now- Fridays is our night for Breaking Bad and then Leverage- one episode each until he's caught up. This keeps us from having bad visits. Maybe in a couple of years we'll be back to being able to just hang out but for now, scheduled activities are a good thing.
I've decided that anyone lived in a pretty how town is not going to the county fair. I've made too many mistakes and it will just not stand up to judging. I've about decided that I shouldn't enter quilts in the fair- I'm too erratic. I have good ideas but my execution falls short of my vision by quite a lot. The alternative to this would be to use a machine. Um, no. Not at this time. I'm relaxing my thoughts about that but machine sewing is still pretty stressful for me and I'm not yet in that much of a hurry.
Fiber optic internet will be here soon. How soon, I don't know, but I am eager for it. Then I can watch TV episodes that I want to see that I do not get as they happen instead of waiting for them to hit DVD. This may not be as good a thing as it would seem, I've never been much of a TV watcher but zenkitty is changing that. There's my Bones, and Leverage, and Dexter, and Breaking Bad, and Castle. Whoops! That's five times as much as I've ever watched on a regular basis... I better learn to sew while I'm watching.
All week I have been wanting to sniff perfume and I still can't smell much. I hate this.
K- I have chores and projects pending- better go get busy!
