I’m having a hard time – you can tell. Just look at the tone of the last several months of posts! And I have really nothing to note except for the same. And since nothing has actually happened, I don’t write. And I don’t write. Because I get tired, too, of the same conversation. I realize it’s my journal, but man. A little variety would be great. No, really. I’ve run out of ways to say the same thing. The lack of writing has made me retreat a bit in the other online things of my life too. And in it’s place I’ve been doing some home renovations.

Long needed… We’ve lived here 3 years now.

Nothing too drastic. We don’t have the skills or money to do it ourselves, and we certainly don’t have the money to hire it out for the bigger stuff. So, we’re just doing what we can paint and such wise. And writing down the things that cost money, so that when our situation does turn around, we can prioritize and budget.

Anyway – if you’re interested, you can view the ongoing work at my flickr set. The pictures are awful, so you’ve been warned. Photography is simply a skill that refuses to be grasped by my mind. The basic gist, though is that Joseph’s room went from purple flowers to a baseball room, and Logan’s went from a seafoam green/spackled room to a pirate room. Both are happy. Both look a lot nicer in person (damn that photography.)
