done yet?

“You done yet?”

Do you know how many emails I have gotten this week starting out with that line?  Let me just say, umm…

f*&% NO! *&^%&^ *^%&*  !@)@)(*# &#(^@@%$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
{insert beep beep bleeeeeeeeeeeeeep here}

*sigh*

Let me take you on a little adventure.  Lets call it… “The Renovating Week from H3ll” shall we?

So the hubs goes on vacay starting last Friday – which meant all week was going to be painting, rearranging, etc etc… 

He came home Fri morning fit to be tied!  See, normally they put your vacation pay on the check you get before your vacay starts right?  Well someone didn’t file paperwork right, so the hubs got no extra funds!  What does that mean?  Well, that means no school clothes got bought this week,  no annual family trip to the zoo,  etc etc… that also meant NO money for painting or furniture for the studio!  I was devastated!!!

Luckily, some web-work fell in my lap (ok, it didn’t FALL more like I made a phone call and basically CRIED and pledged my allegiance for a lifetime of unlimited servitude.) and it was going to be enough for paint and some of the furniture I had already put on hold! 

I started to put the studio off again because I hate to NOT have a family day while the hubs is on vacation.  But, he is right… if I don’t do the studio NOW, I don’t know when I ever will and I cant have classes without the studio and if I cant have classes I’m not making money, sooo…  I need to invest this money to be able to make money.  Yep, you know the old saying – it takes money to make money…

So I had the money for the shiz, right… well ummm… it wont stop RAINING!!!

The hubs says its no good to paint if its raining outside.  So, ok, here I am with the money for my shiz but I cant do anything about it!

Ok so here comes the FUN stuff, ready?

I was walking downstairs talking on the phone Mon or maybe it was Tuesday night – real late like 3am… I missed a step and went all the way down on my fat ass.  So my back has been killing me.  You would think with all that padding back there I would’ve just bounced on …. but. no.  So this was not a good beginning.  An omen, or JUST a mishap?

hmmm….
lets examine this further shall we?

I went and got the paint from Lowes.  You’re going to love this… read on my friends!

I chose this lovely green moss.  It is a match to Mellow Moss from Stampin’ Up! even though it doesn’t really look like it on this scan…

Opened the paint up this morning {it wasn’t raining yet}, and it was some bright ass orange in there!!  UMMM what?!  They had given me someone else’s paint!  So I went back up there to get my paint and get this…  “Ma’am {don’t call me ma’am you shithead!} – we can not exchange on custom mixed paint.”  Oh the h3ll you say!  It took like 20 minutes to get these a$$holes to realize that they gave me someone ELSE’s PAINT!  I kept saying, I know what your policy is, but THIS is not the paint you mixed for ME!  ughhhhhh!!!  The girl that mixed my paint walked by and I yelled at her to come up there, and threw my color swatch at her.  She remembered mixing my paint because she pinched her finger when she put the lid back on.  They finally mixed me some more and I swung by and picked up SOME of my shelving on the way home…

Why Bunny, why do you say “SOME” like that?  hmmmm…

hold on ladies {and gents} here we go…

ok, so eariler this week, the same day I fell down the steps… I went to see about this furniture.  I told the guy, it would be Friday (which would be tomorrow) before I could come in and get the stuff I just wanted to make sure they had what I needed etc…

I got 4 of these guys

9 Cube Storage Cubby 7600012 by Ameriwood

2 of these guys

and one of these stand, though I really would enjoy that there tv too! lol..

Ameriwood™ TV Stand

“Oh yes ma’am {dont call me ma’am cupcake!} we just got our truck and there are 6 of those, 8 of those” etc etc… “No need to put them on hold, they wont sell out that fast…”

UMMM…..

lets just say – I came home with the 4 cube cabinets today and everything else is now on ORDER!
&*%$!!!!!!   *^%&*  !@)@)(*# !!!!!!!!!!!!!

So now I’m downstairs pouting because: here it is THURSDAY and I cant paint (hub’s vacay is over Sunday!)  Cant move the office until after its painted downstairs.  Cant move Bug’s room until I move the office.  Cant move Bub’s room till I move Bug’s and paint.  Cant move the hub’s computer shiz until I move Bub’s and paint.  See the problem I have here?

So I’m sitting downstairs really pouting.  I’m not making that up.  Ok, I was more pout / bitching… because I have a ton of things to do and this is the hub’s showing his concern  [sidenote:  if your man has not discovered the mind meld that is WoW – do everything in your power to KEEP it from happening.  THIS is all he thinks about…]

yep, that b@st@rd is seriously enjoying every moment of his vacay! ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so I’m sitting over by my new shiz, what there was of it…

when for no reason other then I was going to stare at my new shelves, so I opened the box and low and behold… its the WRONG f’in shelves in there there!  They were this light brown…. cheap @ss looking….{insert beep beep bleeeeeeeeeeeeeep here}

omg, seriously feeling a stroke coming on.  Not making that up people.  If I cant paint tomorrow, you will find me huddled in the corner of a closet somewhere sucking my thumb and petting an old shoe I will have just named Sookie.  “Isn’t she puh-ritty!??” 

LOL!!

*sigh*

Im off – let’s see what I can f-up with supper tonight…

Oi!

    hi bunny, my jaw dropped when i unzipped the flowers your dad took. absolutely gorgeous. u said u were looking for ideas, well here are some things i’m always looking for…

    *computer & techno stuff -specially plastic cords that act like ribbons, connections, buttons, lights
    * other things that act like ribbons to twine & wrap around elements like trailing plants, vines, pearls, jewellery chains (soft shapes)
    *jewllery findings -rings from different angles, connectors, attachers etc
    * pom pom braids
    *gorgeous moss & lichen blobs n bits
    * more flowers like kim’s daisies (several shots of the same type of flower from different angles for making bouquets & clusters)
    * not extractions but i’d love some interesting/ different but not ottt organic & crooked shape templates for tags, frames etc
    *funky stationary items -stapler, sharpener, shavings, pens, highlighters etc

    going blind from the size of this font. love your work. you & kim are the best extractors in the business. i’m working towards being good enough to join your store one day – aahhh – a girl can dream!

    enjoy your weekend

    Numbbumm Sue

    PS don’t envy your renovating but it’s a bit like childbirth, you forget the fights, the stresses & agony when you finally get it all gorgeous.

  • Sue says:
