Yeah, I brought it on myself by not blogging when I was, well we'll call it depressed for lack of a better word. Now that I'm feeling better, I thought I'd give an update about what's going on in Pat's little world.
1) I have a cold. Big got sick from the plane and now I have it, wha!!!!!!
2) I am determined that said cold will not ruin today's blueberry picking fun, which btw is only fun to D and Big. I will be sitting in a lawn chair.
3) I have a sunburn, slight one, from going to Slyvan Beach yesterday. It makes me feel like I'm not fish belly white (I made that one up) even though I know I still am.
4) Roof work should be starting today. I'm getting a green steel roof that should look pretty cool. Then house painting (also green) can commence.
5) This one's exciting. My new roommate has moved in and she's just as cool as I thought she'd be.
6) I'm taking Big to see her gp's in NJ. That'll be good for all of us.
7) After having a rough patch of nervousness, Missy is starting to calm down. She likes my new roommate (yay!!!!!)
8) The only little downer (and it is little I'm aware) is that I'd like to mow the lawn today before I leave, but I feel crappy, wha again.
9) Oh, I almost forgot one: the other day while Big was "renovating" a closet for my new roommate's arrival I took my handsaw and clippers and went to town on the shrubs in front of my house. One will likely not come back, but I'm going to cover it for winter and see what happens. But the other two look so much better. I kept the one by the living room window tall (about 12') because I like to see Robins eat the berries on them. I felt pretty accomplished after doing it. I've never been much of a horticulturist. I also felt sore enough to want to curl up in a ball and cry the next day, but I got over that after I curled up in a ball and cried for awhile.
Well that's all the boring middle class shit I can think of. How are you guys doing?
Happy Anniversary

Summer!
I want summer back!
We're going to Niagara falls! And camping at a Jellystone park, oy. Two days of anything can't be all that bad, can it?
ReplyDeleteThe lawn will still be there when you get back. Leave it.
Pat -
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to my side order of de'bacle' at the Creekside Cafe - maybe next week if you are in town. Had a very moving Hiroshima Commemoration on the Village Green Sunday afternoon. A bunch of veteran peacniks (sitting around in the rain) singing We Shall Overcome accommpanied by Pete Seeger (on tape). It doesn't get much better than that! Missed ya!
When is Paint Pat's House Day? Can we make it a weekend? Some downstate friends want to join!
ReplyDeleteShirl -- Pete Seeger, that is th eread deal! Josh, don't toy with me man. I will totally put ya'lls to work. I think that paint day will be the weekend after Labor Day. By then it won't be too hot. It would be so much fun if you came and brought some Nicks. Maybe it would cheer K up to do some hard labor too! Carlie -- two days of camping can be like three days at Guantonamo Bay, but it can also be cool as hell. What's Jellystone? In the west it's a nickname for Yellowstone. Is that where you are?
ReplyDeleteOh, so totally not.
