Its Monday again. Why do these need to happen so often?

The weekend was a whirlwind, but a very, very productive one. DH and I grouted an entire bedroom, probably the second largest room in the entire house. I am so sore that I'm walking like an old woman, all stiff and jerky. But the grout is done!!!! I need to let that sink in.....I have a new found respect for a good floor and the people who make it happen.

Overall, the room is about 90% done now. In a week we seal (sp?) the grout, take care of minor but time consuming things, put shelving in the closet and I think that is it. The doors are painted; just need to be put on the hinges again. Then we can move in. DH may have a longer list as he is the site manager and head contractor, but then he's home more than I and does the bulk of the work.

Because we both slogged it out together for the entire weekend, I didnt have any time to do the household things that support my life outside the house. The kitchen is stacked with dirty dishes. I made soup in the crockpot on Sat, but nothing on Sunday. We ordered carry out last nigth for dinner and I have leftovers for my lunch today, but I feel like this part of the process really suffered. (But the grout is done!!!!) We'll get back on track during the week.

Spending was minimal. I ran a few errands on Sunday while I was out for a coffee at Starbuck's. (It was a HAD TO HAVE caffeine morning.) I tried to get quick, healthy things that we could grab to fill us up so we could keep going. It ended up being triscuits and cookies. Not the best choices, but I was so tired that I wasnt thinking clearly on the fly. In hindsight, fruit seemed too much work. That's a major influence on one's diet. Will have to re-work/shift that one.

Today, I need to pick up some things after work, misc personal items, etc.
I recieved a sample of a deep cleansing mask by Oil of Olay. Its bright blue. Normally, I pass these along because I have moderatley sensitive skin. But I wanted to play, so I tried it. It is lovely!!! It made my skin look good. I looked for the full size and both Target and one of the Wal-marts were completely out of it! Will try K-Mart and maybe Walgreens, though they might be higher. At the other two it was about 6.50 ish. Quite reasonable for the results.
