Yeah SPRING!!!!! Not officially, but we don't need official.The birds are a chirping, world is bright and warm and green things are popping up all over. And the mud. THE MUD! So much mud, all over my house, tracked in by the mr and the dog. (not ever me) It's a never ending battle of vacuuming and mopping (but II secretly kinda love all that mud.. yea, I am a werido)
So how was your week? Mine was good, mostly full of work stuff. Lots of papers and tearing up floors. The floors are going ok, except yesterday we got to the kitchen and found that the previous owner had installed a sub floor of wood slats that contain 8 million nails per inch. I have never seen so many freaking nails in a single piece of wood in my life and it's making for a very slow and frustrating floor tearing up process. I thought for sure we would be done by now, but this super find has delayed us in a big way. So we were planning on putting in another full day of floor ripping up today but my waking up, my body is kinda telling me to stop of else body will break in half and my arms will fall of. Yeah, I am a bit beat up. You should see all the cuts and bruises on my legs and arms.. I look like I fell down a side of a cliff.. (that's what I tell people if they ask) Hum, I wonder if they make a construction worker barbie?
Should we continue on with the hammers and crow bars and the floor of a million nails or take the day completely off, apply some ice, drink lots of coffee and nap? I am voting for the coffee and the naps (so happy for the extra hour of light, not so happy about having an hour taken away from me on a Sunday... take an hour out of Monday!) And I think that the mr will agree. Rest day today, get back to it tomorrow. Maybe if we take the day off I can enjoy some of this fantastical sunshine and ride my bike to the library.. Ah, that sounds so good!
You got any big plans for today? Whatever your plans, just make sure to take it easy and give yourself a break..and maybe a nap. you did lose an hour of after all.
