Paint n Paper

Watch it transform from hell hole to hovel.  It's amazing what a little paint n paper will do... ok and some tiles.

Day 56

Posted 5/6/2020

Day FiftySix: Seriously starting to think about fixing the lack of space in the numbers... Na... Boy crept into the next room and watched videos in almost utter silence this morning... I finally asked him what he was doing at about 7:30... he was just watching videos. Breakfast, French Toast... it's starting to become a common request, I wonder why the change from pancakes. Note to self, he needs more maple syrup soon. That photo (Drawing) from the last post is staring at me... It's f'ing creepy, almost like I just escaped an episode of ScoobieDoo. Shit what is today? Wednesday! I keep having this feeling that I'm supposed to be doing something Wednesday... if I was and forgot about you or what ever it was, I'm sorry, I think I've mentioned before, OLD - Can't Remember Shit! Played a little Minecraft with the boy to allow some time for his friends to all get up and about... I hate when people start calling the house too early... let me wake up, eat breakfast and take my morning shit in peace. We blew some shit up mining in the Nether. Then I got back to work on those shelves in the kitchen cupboards. As it turns out, those little pieces of Maple I saved from building the cupboards did come in handy and I turned most of the left over scrap wood into bullnose trim for 3 more shelves and the supports to hold them up... stain them and they should blend right in with everything else and look like part of the cupboards but still be removable and adjustable. We had Taco leftovers for lunch. I went back to gluing and sanding things. When Heather got home she asked what we had for lunch (she forgot hers at home today)... I thought hard... couldn't remember, she assumed I didn't feed the boy or myself. Hey, just because my brain can't remember squat that doesn't mean my stomach isn't going to send it a reminder at about that time of day, I was sure we ate something. She asked Lawson, he was kinda busy and not in a position to use his brain beyond it's current work load... 'Um, I don't know'. I got yelled at for not feeding him. It eventually came to me, we did eat... Tacos. So the other day I had bought a pork tenderloin like I typically do... it was on sale... and tonight I cut it up into good size pork chops... It made 30 of them, 4 bags of 6 each went into the freezer. the last 6 went on the grill. We made the mistake of asking Lawson how he wanted his done... he wanted Keg Steak Spice on it... Um that's for Steak... He said, Ya but aren't Pork Chops just Pig Steaks? I couldn't argue with that logic, Keg Steak Spice for him it was. Heather has this thing for seasoning salt on them, seemed to me that's kind of an 80's thing to do... I went for the custom blend of Herbs and Spices I make and keep on the shelve for just such an emergency. So we got to the rest of that Play... Frankenstein, can we give it 1.5 thumbs up? It was good, maybe it was the story that bothered me some... maybe it was because the monster was a bit of a dick... hard to feel sorry for him, which is what I assume we were supposed to be doing. Night All.

First time seeing this. You’re doing a day by day of quarantine ?

Rod Turnbull
Ya, trying to take this day by day and keep a little sense of humor at the same time.  My guess is Facebook didn't share this on many people's newsfeed. LOL

Hard to say. I’m on & off. Might have just missed it
