Who needs a dishwasher?

I just hosed off my breakfast cereal bowl in the back yard with the garden hose. Most of the cabinets are in. Bathroom sink and granite top should be installed around noon today. There was confusion with the granite, it looks like they won't have enough to match the kitchen and bathroom granite after all. The only small pieces they had to match at all is darker than we wanted but at this point, I'm just over it all.

Exercise...does sweating bullets while painting in the heat and humidity yesterday count? I needed to paint two pieces of trim board before they put them up and it was so hot I was dripping sweat on to the board as I painted and the paint was drying as I painted. It was THAT hot.

Eating...Greek salad for dinner last night with grilled chicken. Very tasty and healthy too. I live about 10 minutes north of a large Greek community called Tarpon Springs. There is no shortage of excellent Greek food. We tried a different place that our neighbor recommended. We won't be going back to that other place ever again! The food and service were exceptional.

There is a coating of dust across the whole house, I'm not going to try to clean up again until after they are done. Its a losing battle.

  7. I can hear you on the humidity! I was doing my exercise tape and I was sweating buckets. Like, I'd go to wipe my face but I couldn't because all of me had a sheen so it wasn;t gettign any drier. I crawled into a cool shower once I was done.
