Spring Fever

I admit it, I have Spring Fever. Something about that 55 degree weather on Sunday coupled with the fact I opened windows in my house for about an hour has sent me into a spring fever frenzy.

My garage is atrocious. I am storing stuff for both my Sister and CCM and it needs to go ... either in the attic or out of there. In early January my Sister and I put stuff in the attic of my garage from her pile o' stuff in my garage, however, we did not put everything up there because she 'might' need access to it. After this weekend, it will all be up there if it can fit. I need room to sand and paint my patio furniture.

Same for CCM's stuff. She said she was going to move it to a friend's house and I will try to make that happen in short order. I have enough people at my house this weekend to get this stuff up and gone and that is what will happen.

I spent about an hour in my garage last night organizing my stuff some more and thinking about what could go up in the attic until further notice. I may be paring down some stuff I have in the near future just to get to the 'zen' garage I am hoping for.

Looking over my glass stuff last night I realized that I really need to get back to that too. I love to play with glass and make my stones so yet again I will need to get stuff cleaned out for a proper workspace for that.

Quote o' the decade courtesy of a student in the restroom:

(The setting: women's restroom; time: 5:00; I am inside, out of view; student enters, talking to herself)

"Damn, why is this bathroom so hot? Every other room here is cold. Well, at least my pussy won't freeze"

At this point, I burst into laughter. Student stops dead in her tracks, aware now she is not alone. She runs out of the bathroom. I laugh harder.

Also had a great talk with Scully last night. Big shout out to Mineral, WA, the only town on earth that makes New Carlisle look like a metropolis! :) I'll work on getting out there, would love to see you!

This week is all about getting ready for the family to arrive on Thursday. They will get here sometime Thursday afternoon and will leave on Sunday. My Mom and Cousin B will be here to paint my bedroom and guest bedroom and cousin K is coming on Friday afternoon. Then apparently my Aunt N, Uncle R and Cousin T will come over from Terre Haute on Saturday noonish for lunch and to visit.

Busy weekend. Lots to do.
