Oh, wait. Friday's here, already. Well, in some parts of the Earth, anyway. Technically, with me, it's still Thursday.
So, yeah. I missed last week's post entirely. My excuse is that I had a deadline to have my house ready for the stagers to come in and make it look fancy by Tuesday. I was killing myself (and my father, because my husband has been at his new job for the last two weeks) trying to meet the deadline, but then they switched it on me, anyway. That's how it goes around here, anymore. I keep telling myself that it will end eventually, I just have to make it through. Trying to keep a lot of positive self-talk going.
And have occasional, surprise melt-downs. Yesterday I went to ask a friend about a plumber and just started crying. I was like, "Wow." Usually I have some warning I'm going to lose it, but not yesterday!
My boys are done with school, and now all of my family will be in our new town, with the exception of me. Once my house is actually on the market, and I'm lonesome, I plan to finally get back to Through the Fairy Ring. One more chapter is all I have to write before I start the second pass. Don't give up on me!
Here's this week's photos!
| Awww, However, if it was me, I wouldn't be hanging around taking pictures... |
| The fruit's in disguise... |
| Just a little creepy. Unless it's the first of an invasion... |
| So, the whole no makeup/no filter thing still annoys me. |
| You know what I thought of the instant I saw this picture? Bradley Cooper playing Richie Dimaso in American Hustle. |
| If you've seen the show, you know you've thought this before. |
My favorite is the Richie Dimaso poodle. The similarity between the two makes me chuckle.
Which is your favorite?
How has your last two weeks gone?
We'll never give up on you!
ReplyDeleteI've heard staging can make a big difference. I know if we were to sell our house there's probably a lot of stuff we would have to remove first.
The pitbull one made me chuckle most.
Have a good weekend!
The realtors swear by staging. I guess they're two of the top sellers in our town, so I'd hope they know what they're talking about.
DeleteI have to admit that I kind of feel like getting rid of all the stuff we'd moved to my mom's house about a month ago. I don't think we'd miss it at all. Right now the things that are currently in the house are the things we use, and probably are the only things we really need.
I hope you had a good weekend, too!
The cow without makeup. Hope you sell soon and for a good price. Have you told us where you're moving? My memory is like my attention span - non-existent.
ReplyDeleteWe're moving to Eastern Nebraska. My mom moved there a couple of years ago, and it seemed like as good a place as any. I'm hoping it's a good move for all of us. :)
DeleteLara, you have got to chill. This isn't brain surgery -- if you're late with something, if something has to be rescheduled, if you do something wrong - NO ONE WILL DIE. Everything will work out and you don't have to be perfect all the time.
ReplyDeleteI'm voting for Perm Dog! :)
Yes, Lexa, you are absolutely right. I have to chill and no one will die. :)
DeleteI'm glad you liked Perm Dog, too! Did you see American Hustle? I wanted to put a picture of Bradley Cooper as Demaso, but the whole copyright issue thing made me decide not to.
