Watching me complete multiple tasks is generally entertaining. With my short attention span, I find it hard to start a task, fully complete it, then move on. So, what I do is start something, finish it about 95%, then lose interest so I start something else. I’ll finish that about 95%, you get the idea. Once I have about five things on the go, I’ll go back to the first one to finish that. I won’t completely finish it though because I’m still kind of bored with it from doing so much the first go around that I may get to 98%, then again move on. In the past, this has been with little tasks like cleaning, some wall papering, yard work that kind of stuff. I have never before had big ticket items like painting the whole main area.

My goal this week off was to tidy all the loose ends that I had floating out there because once the painting is finished, the next project is larger, so I don’t want to loose focus. I finally finished the mud room and the main hallway, which is a big relief. Kitchen is mostly done and baseboards are all done in the main area. Check check. One room I had also started was the laundry room. I bought these awesome knobs at a place in town and I love them every time I see them. I have some in the living rom and some in the laundry and the best one of all is the seahorse. I have been fascinated with them for a while know and in 2009, was lucky to see two in Bonaire. I had already done probably 7 dives looking for them and had given up when I got invited to go on one more charter. I will always have a clear memory of just floating there in the water with my face about 6 inches away from it. They don’t look like they’re from this world and I like that. After finally seeing some in Bonaire, I got a wicked seahorse tattoo on my ankle.

It is snowing regularly now. The snow here is perfect snowman snow and heavy to shovel. The other night, I went out with the ladies in Calgary and when I got home, I was running back to the house in high heels, a dress, the dog and my bags in about 6 inches of snow.  It might be time to put the hells away for the winter.

Stubs.
