I hate insomnia...and do you know what makes insomnia worse? When you have a head cold!!
Needless to say, after the whole electricity misadventure here at WT Central (White Trash Central AKA my trailer) I had an epiphany...okay, so some of you are going to say, "Well duh, stupid!" But hey - sometimes I be slow.
Okay so Poppy came over to help The Cop Magnet with the whole electricity issues. It turns out that where the fridge was plugged in was piggy backed from where the microwave is plugged in which is piggy backed from where the stove and dishwasher draw their juice, which was piggy backed SOME freakin' how to a socket outside...which was piggy backed to a bathroom socket that never worked. Confused yet?
Yeah, me too. My kitchen was in more of a disarray than usual after those two got finished. The good news is that I no longer have an extension cord going from one end of the kitchen to another.
I've decided to redecorate WT Central. The bathroom will be a nice shade known as blue pond. It will match the shower curtain I already have. I am seriously toying with the idea of getting a stencil and putting dragon flies on the wall. With the new light The Cop Magnet installed in there today, you can now see how dirty the garden tub truly is (thanks to Pup Dog). Looks like I need to clean it more than 2x a week. Of course, the old tile would have to come up (it's just that laminate dollar store stuff, anyway).
The kitchen currently has this disgustingly ugly border of fruit that the last owner put up. The good news is that she only used tape to stick it up there. If I have enough Coca Cola border, I'll use that...other wise I was thinking more along the lines of a red checkered country kitchen look. I even contemplated making a sign that says White Trash Cafe. The person that painted the cabinet doors did a crappy job. Apparently they didn't prime it first...you can still see hints of ugly brown wood under the white paint. The handles have to go, too.
The good news is, though, that I put most of my kitchen back together and even rearranged a few things, and made the boys' lunches for school.
When they wake up, I'll do the dishes. Poppy is making a shelf for me to put all of my cookbooks on. I had the bar area all cleaned off too...and the kitchen table...but not now.Labels: all nighter, white trash central |
