It's Not Even 9am

and i'm already aggravated.

j was supposed to go work overtime today but decided at the last minute not to.  this is annoying for two reasons.

1.  i was looking forward to having a saturday to myself to do stuff around the house, clean up clutter, do some spinning.  it's impossible to do that kind of stuff with him around. 

2.  he sleeps through alarms, so i have to get up at the crack ass of dawn in order to wake his ass up.  fine whatever when he actually ends up going to work.  annoying, when he gets up only to call in and tell them that he's not coming in.  YOU MEAN I WOKE UP AT 6:00 ON A SATURDAY FOR NOTHING???!!!

3.  miss-i'm-getting-out-of-the-house-don't-expect-me-back-for-another-two-months had me running around in our weed infested backyard looking for her after she escaped.  once they've seen the next street over, there's no keeping them on the farm.

4. our printer/scanner is out of black ink.  it will not scan without replacing the black ink.  YOU DON'T NEED FRIGGIN' INK TO SCAN!!!!

ok, i've gotten that out of my system.

here's my new favorite spot in the house.

the table and chairs were picked up yesterday.  it's such a bright and sunny spot.  (and the windows are filthy -- don't look at them).

remember this?  this is what i'm making with it.  i'm on the sleeves now.  two at a time.  hope to finish it (and actually like it) by labor day.  and then become blond and thin by the following tuesday. 

and last but not least, this week's saturday sky.
