Day 3
Have you ever had that one room you want to improve, but not sure if you can do it yourself (DIY). Or you "think" you can do it cheaper, or a better job than someone else. Well, I am going to say "most" of the time don't attempt it.
OMG! We are "attempting" this closet remodel, with the Rubbermaid system (Don't try it), and I have to come to the realization that I am no contractor and Eric is a perfectionist. Not a good combination. Every time he has to tell me to go get something, it's not what he was talking about, or it's just plain wrong. I have to go to the garage 2 different times, then I come back, and he just tells me to bring the whole box. MOST ANNOYING THING EVER! Sometimes I just want say, "Go find a friend that his handy, because asking your girlfriend is the WRONG IDEA!" Also, when his lack of communication skills really come into play, that's when it gets really fun. When he is holding a level and tells me to draw a straight line across. Now to a "normal" person, that means like drawing a straight line with a ruler, but NO! Not to him, nope, no way, not even close. Apparently there is a certain way you hold the pencil. Great fun I tell ya, great fun. If I ever had a moment that I knew exactly what I didn't want to be in life, it's right now at this very moment 11:06 AM on December 13, 2010. I DON'T WANT TO BE A CONTRACTOR. I don't want to build things, put things together, or improve upon something. I tell you, he didn't make the decision to be with me because of my superior ability to build things.
Okay well, on to better things. Last night I bumped up my time on the elliptical, I did 3 sets of 15 minutes, at resistance 2! I am on my way! =) Wish me luck, not only with my 8K, but that no one is hurt in the Lynn household this evening.
