So, it’s been awhile since I posted and there are really no excuses as to why I’ve been so lame. All week long I thought it was Thursday even when it was only Tuesday and now that it is finally Thursday, I just want it to be Friday.
I finally decided to clean the shower when I got home today and cleaning the shower does not give me any satisfaction because the nitwits who owned the house before us or the nitwits the nitwits hired before we bought the house to fix things caulked over mold/mildew in the shower and so I can never get it all that clean. I put the super-mojo-nixon cleaner on the stains today and they are a little less gross but there is no amount of elbow or grease that will make those stains go away. We’ll eventually cut the caulk out and start over or nuke the entire bathroom and start over.
I am about to paint the bathroom as it is possibly the whitest, white bread room in the house. Seriously who picks stuff like this?
In other disappointing news, I created the bare bones of a spreadsheet at work after all the layoffs were announced so I could plot out how quickly people left. I am beginning to think that I’ll have nothing but a bunch of points on or around September 28th. It may be a weird thing to do but I’m really interested in how long it takes people to leave. Especially a few people in my office who before they were laid off couldn’t understand why the boss was keeping certain people until the last possible day. These certain people hold jobs that really don’t make sense…like we don’t do special projects so why do we have someone in charge of special projects. MMMMM, so I’ve been thinking about at least one person in my office who ranted about these “special” jobs and how she thought those people should be let go immediately to start saving the organization money. Now she’s taking the tack of I don’t feel like doing anything so I’m riding out my time until the last day. Isn’t that the same thing as having a meaningless job and being kept? Just wondering.
The Niece is spending Saturday night with us. I predict a serious amount of pool time.
I’d take that tile over the all black bathroom that we have. Black tile floors show every speck of everything and our hard water makes the black toilet look particularly hideous. Even the black bathtub is useless. It’s too big and takes up a ton of space and takes forever to fill. I can’t wait until we can gut the whole thing.
I think you’re right. I’ll take the white. We once looked at a house that used black tile with gold flecks around a fireplace. It was one of the uglier things I’ve ever seen.
And, I don’t know what all the fuss is about these big tubs…they are useless. Who knows what lives in the jets because the two times I’ve turned them on a freaky bio-film flies out and disgusts me. The Niece is the only one who ever uses the tub and we don’t let her turn it on.
