You Tell Me . . .


Scenes from Renovation -- the DH nailing new panels into the kitchen. My poor house!
Okay, this is the pic that got me into major trouble. See, on the other side of the wall where the DH is nailing? Yeah. That's where the electrical box is. He hit the nail, I snapped the pic, the flash went off, the DH screamed (I was going to write "yelled," but really he screamed like a girl.).
Obviously, my camera flash mimics the electrical flash of someone nailing into an electrical box . . .
I keep trying to convince the man that with enough time and perspective, this will be our favorite too-funny-for-words renovation story. He doesn't agree, as he's the one who believed he'd just been electrocuted since his wife lacks common sense and foresight from time to time.
Just a hint for the future -- if someone's nailing around your electrical box, don't take their picture.
So you tell me -- funny? Or not funny?

This Week's TTD:

One of my favorite shots from our vacation -- the Castillo de San Marco fronting the Bay of Matanzas in St. Augustine.

1) Blog more often

2) Minimum 7K on Something More, Troy Lee & Angel's book. (I have to turn it in August 1. What was I thinking, write a book in two months, under contract?!)

3) Hang ceiling drywall in living room

4) Laundry

5) Discussion posts and portfolio for EDUC 6650 (this is week 8)

6) Print out assignments and make notebook for next course

7) Write and post lessons for the online writing class I'm teaching

8) Clear office and panic.

9) Demo drywall so we can finish hanging new panels.

I'm sure there's more, but I'm afraid to think about it.

Before:

Big improvement, huh? It looks soooo much better already and that's without paint and flooring!
