Been working on cleaning the house. Blessedly, we now have a bedroom -- 2, in fact! -- in which one can see the floor. Go us.

Still no word yet on future employment. I'm not worried, oddly enough. Things will happen as they are meant to, and not a moment before. I am slowly catching up on some reading...working where I was working previously, my schedule consisted of work, sleep, work, sleep, work, sleep. Yes, I know that's normal for most Americans, but it's soul-killing.

Mel's room is coming along...I have been enjoying myself repairing the cracks in the plaster. Who'd have thought that I was actually decent at plasterwork? Not yours truly, that's for sure. I'm thinking of starting off with a cream-colored base, sponge-painted over the cream with dark red...trim work in dark red with silver stenciling. The nice thing about owning this house is that we no longer have to worry about landlord-approved colors.

Since losing my job, Boe and I have a nice little routine we are settling into. Get up at 8, clean a particular room of the house, eat lunch, get on the web/play on the Playstation, walk the dog at Swinney Park, do laundry, eat supper, and then talk to Mel until midnight. Incredibly, the dark purple circles under my eyes have vanished. I have had those damned things for...6 years now? I feel like a human being again!
