Now What???!?!?

Now What???!?!?

The house is done. It looks great. I’m kind of at loose ends, what with not expecting a bunch of guys to start sawing and hammering and stuff at 8AM. Worse still, it means I now must track down a reliable mason and a good flooring place, plus empty out the garage and figure out where to put things and insulate and drywall and spackle and paint and install shelving and lighting. . .my brain hurts!!!

I have a feeling Freecycle.org is going to get a lot of posts from me soon. I have about eight people interested in taking the hot tub off my hands (I called all the local pool and spa places – they’ll put ’em in, but you can’t get rid of an old one without buying a new one. The slimy bastiges!!) and someone who’ll take the hangers. Soon it’ll be a couple of storage cabinets, toys, tools. . .OMG, anything, as long as I don’t have to find a place to put it!!!

And, of course, I can go back and do work on the garden and lawn if I get bored with all that. Heh.

Perhaps the Beach. . .

Perhaps the Beach. . .

Our contractors aren’t coming. My hair appointment was changed from today to last night. We might, just might, make it to the beach after lunch. I have just the book to sit around and lounge with, too. It’s been so darned hot, I might even make it into the water. I like the ocean, I just have to be in the right mood to want to play in it.

My Least Favorite Shopping.

My Least Favorite Shopping.

It was a lovely day today (aside from the stifling heat), coffee and bagels and the Sunday papers, then off to clay with friends, some chatting afterwards socially, and a perusal of the odds and ends left at the Lakewood Rag Shop. Then. . .

BRA SHOPPING!!!!!

I really need some new ones, and I figured that maybe I’d get some that were a bit more alluring. Victoria’s Secret was having a sale, but only on the bras you need to wear opaque, heavy shirts to wear. The ones that weren’t in neon colors were $50 each. with salesladies on my tail, I rushed out, figuring I’d see what was available at Macy’s on my way back to the car. Needless to say, this search was fruitless as well. In every single style I liked, they had my cup size in one band size too big or one band size too small. In my band size, they had one cup size too big or one cup size too small. They had many in my exact size in the ugly styles and the expensive styles.

Clearly, all the women with my exact same size boobs are many in number, and they all went shopping before I did. In addition, they are women who do not wear ugly undergarments, and they’re savvy shoppers. There must be some connection, as I see it. Forget about astrology, the paper should start running daily predictions based on bra size. Heh.
