Insomnia
I have the insomnia it would seem. The INSOMNIA.

The current project is remodeling the kitchen. It's LOTS of really back breaking work. Unfriendly has been doing most of it. Tonight's project was working on moving the plumbing over. I got to saw, glue and assemble some PVC pipe until I got really sleepy and went downstairs for a brief siesta on the couch at midnight.

When I went upstairs at 1:30 after medicating Pooky, I was presented with two options:
  1. Stay up until 2 am and test out the hot and cold water to make sure the new plumbing arrangement didn't leak. UF would then cap off the pipes and turn the water back on in the morning
  2. Test the water out in the morning before UF left for work. If all went well, he would cap the pipes and I would be able to turn the water back on later in the day.
I went with option 1 because LORDY I need a shower. Turns out the hot water won't flow out without having the cold water on. It was explained to me in much better technical detail, but I really can't remember. So, cold water can be turned on in about 30 minutes to test out the hot water plumbing.

I still can't take a shower until maybe noon. Ugh.
Gave up
I reverted back to my old template. Just couldn't find a 3 column xml one I liked and don't have time to create my own.

Layouts
I've been surfing around for new layouts and I think I like this one. We'll see how it goes. I still have to do some editing to make all the links work

Refresh!
I am thinking of starting up le blog again and redoing it. I am still using the old blogger template format and should really upgrade.

More to come. Lots of stuff going on this summer!
