It's Friday for my bride...as she is off on Wed-Thurs
it's just another day for me
Lily is feeling better and will be in "pre-school" today
I will have contractors here for about half a day
the bathroom tile work has grown into a major project
and has taken over 2 weeks for what started
as a 2 day job,,,,the cost (unfortunately) has grown
at the same rate as the time involved

This would have meant an extra pack a day
for the past 3 weeks about 5 years ago
how stupid was that,,,,,like it made anything better

our reasoning, and attitude about things was
really goofy,,,,,at least mine was.

So,,,today is a good day to stay strong
get past that craving and move onward,,,
you are getting closer to your peace every day
don't stop now,,,,,you are almost there

quit date--Dec 26, 2007
hold on tight to your dream,,,,

I have a love/hate relationship
with projects like that.
I hate that it takes so long,
but it sure does look pretty when you're done!
Sounds like you'll have a whole new bathroom
when you're done!
Must post pictures!!

I chose freedom on: 2~3~12

What you described is the very reason I don't want anyone to do anything for me--I'll just do it myself or do without lol But seriously, it makes one crazy for a while doesn't it! No matter, you just hang in there Pete. I do believe you deserve a special treat for yourself just because. So glad Lily is feeling better. Hugs!
