Today I feel like posting early as this is one of those days that not too much gets done.  Last night I had to do homework, the power was on, and when I opened the assignment it was full of notation I didn't understand.  I understood about half but that really doesn't cut it with math.   So I read the sections he put on the syllabus and didn't find the answers, then I read the stuff he said to skip – still no answers, then I tried to find a website that explained the notation and I didn't find one.   I finally called my Math teacher friend and opened a see-n-share program so she could see my computer and showed her the worksheet.  As soon as she identified what each thing meant I was fine and the work was easy.   I honestly am good at algebra and following formulas but it would have been nice if the moron thought to tell us what each thing meant.  At least the homework is done but I still need IT to install Minitab on my computer because I don't have admin rights and teacher says we need a laptop for class....

 

After homework and dinner and some TV I started painting.  I did a whole bunch of stupid things like whacking the roller into thing or making drips that I think I was just tired but I got all but the toilet wall done.   Looking this morning I see a few spots that need touching up but all in all it looks good.  It was 11pm when faced with how to paint behind the toilet so I decided to wait on it.   I have a plan now, I am going to bag the toilet, paint as much as I can with my little roller, then use a brush, then use my little flat edger.  I figure that not too many people will be looking behind the toilet and as long as it is the right color I should be ok.  Tonight after class I'll try and knock out the last wall and do touch ups so this weekend it will be dry for the crown molding.   Poor Lars, he keeps thinking I'm done and putting the shower curtain back up and then I hear him and tell him I'm not done and don't get the room all steamy so he goes to shower in the downstairs slightly scary bathroom.   It really isn't as scary as it could be but it does have an odd built in seat and the shower head is a hand sprayer that is on a wall mount that is too short to stand under.   I took it off the mount and used it standing up, Lars has decided that sitting is just easier.  To all the people who have showered in this bathroom, I'm sorry, I've cleaned it tons for times but never looked at the logistics of it.   I also noticed when I took my first shower in there the other day that the hot cold knob is wrong, it is opposite, don't know how that happened but I'm sorry about that too!   The downstairs shower is on the list of things I want to upgrade...

 

Today is an odd work day, things kinda piled up oddly.  I have mentoring at 10:30 at the local elementary school where I talk to a 4 ^th grader for an hour and have school lunch.  To me she doesn't seem high risk or anything other then the normal 4^th grade girl but she seems to like the hour of time all about her.   This afternoon I have my every other week healthy roads apt where for half an hour I talk about nutrition to a woman in California that work 'strongly suggested' people with my health score participate in the program.   The health assessment said I am overweight for my height and although I know I could look 5-10 pounds they don't take muscle and dense bones into the equation so therefore, I am overweight and I talk to her ever other week.   In the past year I have gotten some good advice, not really diet to loose weight related but I have started eating more fruit and she gives good advice about bike riding etc.   Finally, I have class tonight so I need to leave 4pm on the button to be able to get home, put on extra layers of clothing so I can handle my 8 block walk to class and then get down there so I can watch the bozo perform for 3 hours.   So, today I have a challenging day to get my stuff done but I got a lot done yesterday and there is always tomorrow...
