So at some point a couple of months ago, I hit this "nesting" phase. I didn't particularly recognize it, i just figured it was a good time to get things done. I wound up hiring a maid service, buying baby furniture, scheduling lists of thing to do in the future, and a bunch of other stuff. And it wasn't like I had a lot of energy; i didn't. but the energy I had was pretty focused on getting stuff accomplished.
anyways, one of the things I did back then was order new blinds for the house. All our windows are a funky size so its not like any blinds will work. But I managed to score an amazing deal on a JC Penny's sale on custom cordless cellular blinds. The only problem was that, since they were custom a) i couldn't return them if I didn't like them and b) it took 5 weeks to make and deliver.
So today, they finally showed up! yay! and they fit the windows! double-yay!! The only problem is that I can't install them! BOOOO! Its not like its that hard either but for some reason, climbing up and down a step-ladder, marking up the frame for the install, pre-drilling the holes... well, i think you get the idea.
Evidently, I'm too far gone to handle home improvement projects. Which I should have realized when it completely tired me out to assemble the fantastic cradle swing we got a few weeks ago. So now, here I am all excited about the new blinds (for three rooms no less), and I lack the body power to do anything about it. its kind of sad.
and even worse, now I have to get my vicarious thrills by getting the loml to assemble and install all this stuff (did I mention that we just got a glider/ottoman that also needs to be put together?!). and the loml...., well let's just say he's not even half as excited about this stuff as I am.
waaahh... waaaaaaah.... waaaaaaaah : (
