nothing complicated. just some great stuff insulation that got away from me and wreaked a little havoc.
damn i hate this. the only thing worse is duffing out and having to look at a half assed job forever.
onward.

2. or take the rest of the day off, which is what i did.
i had one of those big oh shit moments. i am working on getting all my million pieces (mine, my friends, art auction bargains, thrift shop finds) of artwork hung, and had one sitting on a little ledge in the stairway. i was walking by and i saw that it was a little too close to the window. so i moved it over, and walked on. only to be followed by a hail of broken glass. the worst part is that that is the second time the glass in the picture has been broken. it was a x-mas present from the dh.
at that point i declared myself a danger to myself and others, and sat down. did some overdue stuff on the computer.

back at job one today.
