A shining, sparkly ball of angst, now based in Manhattan!

while the cat’s away…

…the mice will decorate. :D

I was off from work yesterday, and R had gone skiing, so I had three whole days in the apartment to myself. I deliberately didn’t make plans because I’d needed some time where there wasn’t anywhere I needed to be, or anyone I needed to see. With the exception of some cable service guys, who came on Saturday morning, it was just me me me me me. BLISS!

I took the time and opportunity to blow off stuff for the wedding (hey, if R could, I could too) and instead hung pictures, hung a mobile that we’d gotten for Christmas, and even finally finished an Ikea file cabinet that we’d had in the apartment for a year now. Power drills were involved. Important tip: don’t ever drill Ikea furniture from the back part of the piece — I had no idea, and bits of the front finish flaked off. Happily, the file drawer handles cover it up, (and it was only for the bottom drawer), but I was not pleased! Grrrr!

I also wanted to repot my poor spider plants, but alas, I couldn’t find any nice, large, colorful pots. Looks like ‘net shopping for me. :)
