My Mother Holds A Grudge

I'm not quite sure what she's upset about, but evidently, she's harboring some resentment. There's no other explanation as to why my wonderful, kind, loving mother - the woman who raised me, taught me how to shoot a three pointer and drive a stick - would tell me that painting my house would be a 'fun' experience. It took me 45 minutes to tape off the hallways, which took me only 20 mintues to paint.

The inventor of trim is a sadistic bastard who's obviously never had to paint a room before.

I'm exhausted, and the combination of paint fumes, But Lite (note to self: drinking while painting not so smart) and 5 hours of sleep have left me with a brutal headache.

The hallway upstairs, the entry way and the hallway downstairs that leads into the garage look awesome, though, and the kittens managed to escape unpainted. (Shorty wisely locked himself and Thing 1 and Thing 2 in our bedroom while I was 'making our house pretty.' Smart boy.)

I don't understand why my mother didn't warn me about what I was getting myself into. Mom makes Martha Stewart look like an amature. She is a home decorating bad ass. She knew exactly what I was getting myself into. Instead of cautioning her loving, adoring, innocent daughter, she gave me painting tips! The woman hates me. So, Mom, I'm sorry for losing your favorite pair of earrings on a basketball trip my sophmore year in high school, stretching out your favorite sweater, stealing your cute cream colored linen pants and drinking all the coffee.

Anyone want to come tape off the rest of the rooms for me?

Hello, I have a fairly new website that has been online for about 8 months. I am doing research as per a fellow website owner suggested to gather information about delivering good content to my visitors. I looked at alot of websites that are in my area clock novelty wall . I have done the internet MLM thing and really got disgusted at the whole thing. So my wife and I thought since we love horses we should build a website around that. We have done pretty good so far but I always want to improve. I didn;t realize it would be so time consuming though. But we love it and hope to improve and offer some of the best recourses and products available. Hence the search for content new products and information about what we have.

Thank you for your BLOG.

Regards,
