NaNo

I can't seem to get the bar to show properly, it keeps showing up right under my icon. What's with that? Anyone have any idea how to fix it.

But anyway ... here's an update on my word count. I've had a really good couple of days. No one needed any help and Himself is working on the bulldozer. I'm not allowed in the shop while they're doing any sort of 'pull' job. Right now they pulled the right side master push cylinder and they're working on the water pump. Everything is way too heavy for me to be any help so I've got the house to myself and I'm writing. Yay!

Ahem ... so here it is:

Chugging right along. I'll have some making up to do this weekend. Saturday I'm teaching my second bookbinding class. Pamphlet and Chap book this time.

And a later class is going to be aimed at artists.

I have bought two or three watercolor journals and given them all away. I like hot press paper 140lb because I use a combination of pencil, stick and pan colors and the pencils don't work well on cold press, let's not even talk about rough. So I wound up making my own. I'm going to teach a class on making your own journal book.

question

If an English speaking child of five or six was taken to Russia, spoke both Russian and English there after, with more Russian than English, would they have a Russian accent?

WTFery

Paso Doble to Joan Jett/Hate Myself For Loving You? Not even.

Who the hell picks the damn music? What are they thinking? And how do I strangle them?

There are certain dances that should be danced to traditional music for a reason!!!

Just saying.

Himself

I broke a glass cup while I was making breakfast. Not a big deal, in one way, as the cup was cheap. But, no one wears shoes in the house, so ... here I am, barefooted in the middle of a scattering of glass. Not so good. So I yell, "Honey, put your shoes on, I broke a cup." He doesn't even ask, just puts on his shoes, comes and gets me, carries me out of the glass and goes to take his shoes off again. Tole? A kiss, of course. *hugs him* My hero!

Dear tin maker.

A #5 tin should not only hold a five pound bag of flour but keep it inside. A tight fitting lid is one which stays on. It should have to be pried off by main force. It should stay on even if the tin is picked up by the lid by an unsuspecting husband.

Flour on the floor instead of in the tin is not what is expected or desired. Asshats! Tight fitting traditional lid my fanny!!

No love, me! *blert*

*goes to help clean up flour*

Jessica cat

Yay! She came prancing back, early this morning, with a mole in her mouth. She was all, "What!?" when we fussed her. Silly girl. But, we treated her and petted her. So Happy!!

Himself thinks an owl got Jessie, our black cat. If she doesn't show up in two days, it's probably true. Damnit!!
