This week I may have met my Mr. Miyagi. Her name is Prof. Sheppard and she is the reason I purchased a t-square today. It has become clear that this semester's class is all about the fundamentals. My homework this weekend is to draw a window, door and tile floor to scale using my architectural scale. This means math people, MATH I say! I am not going to lie. The drawing and the math are freaking me out a bit. More than a bit. But I am going to be brave and see this thing through. Who knows? I might even be good at it.
This weekend I have been able to get many little things done that I have been meaning to do. Flounder and I each took half the list on Saturday and set off to run errands. He went to the transfer station and the Salvation Army. I headed to Target, the dry cleaner, and the Lancaster market and then I fatefully turn the car to Butlers' Orchard. On the winding narrow road that leads to the orchard, I managed hit something and hit it hard. I slashed my tire in the process. This is the second flat tire in as many months. Good News: The tire was still under warranty! Bad News: The AAA guy who came to my rescue jacked-up on of the bolts that holds the tire on when he replaced its nut while applying the donut. This little screw up cost us $60. Gah! We will be contacting AAA on that front.
Today was a good day. I got to hang out with Ms. WAS and see how her kitchen/ family room is coming along (the answer - gorgeously!) I also used a burst of energy and the able assistance of Flounder the rearrange our (now shared) office, hang new fixtures in the powder room and hang a picture in my bathroom. I am beat. Energy, spent.
