OH!!! It is SOO DH’s fault … He sent a de-funk Craig’s List item that promised a new storage rack/work station in my COE-90 designated work area. HE emailed the no-good listing to me. Now I WANT one! Shelves for my frits, upright storage for my glass, a place to tuck much-needed tools, AND a …
Now I know why I was feeling extra tired and cranky at work this weekend. I’m fighting off some crummy URI virus that my coworkers are spreading around like candy. So I power-slept yesterday for some 14+ hours. DH said he checked on me once to make sure I was still breathing … Awww, he …
