Where does the time go on the weekends? This weekend, I began, by not working overtime. That seemed like a good idea. I stopped at a few places on the way home to grab some odds and ends that I’d not been able to get earlier.
I picked up some delicious beer to start the weekend off right.I must say that I am really liking the Porter style of beer lately. So, last week, it rained a torrential downpour, leaving just our house in the middle of a soggy yard.
This week, it snows and is well below freezing. Mac’s still in denial, I am sure, but I’ve got the proof that old man winter is on his way.
So, Ange and I painted some more as well. Our living room is finished, for all intents and purposes, and one bedroom’s paint is drying now. Two more rooms and a bit in the hall is all that’s left for the paint. That won’t come soon enough.
As you can see, we’ve tried to escape the ’80s fake wood paneling look as much as possible. We’ve even fulled in the cracks in the paneling to smooth out the wall a bit.

OK, there’s no denying it now. The nuclear fallout has fallen in greater amounts and the radiation poisoning is making me hallucinate and I can now see this stuff you call snow.
No beer for me! After weighing in at a hefty 244 lbs, It’s time I put myself on a diet! I can’t wait till the painting stage is done so kudos for making progress. 80’s look die! haha
