Catching up........

Honestly truly I should be downstairs doing housework and yard work........ I have a lot of catching up to do after spending half the week painting and redecorating the bedroom............... 

BUT I have been trying and trying to do a blog........... 
Last week when I posted the video of L'Oubliette I received an email from a friend asking for a more detailed description of the equipment.  I have tried and tried to capture the pictures individually to use them in the explanation blog...... but I can't ........ and I personally don't see any point in trying to explain something without the picture.  I mean - other than the obvious - this is a cage......... it is difficult to explain equipment that is used for various forms of torture.  I mean there was a St. Andrew's cross in the video and a set of stocks and a frame for suspension and a spanking bench...... and I couldn't even find similar pictures of equipment through google to use - as bandit makes 99% of his own equipment so there are bits and pieces that are different....

Anyone got any suggestions???


And then - the bedroom is bugging me.  The wall that was 1/3 a different colour was driving me nuts.  So Wednesday when I got home from the specialist's I repainted the entire wall so it is now all one colour and almost impossible to tell it isn't the same colour as the rest of the room.  THEN I decided the bamboo I had put on the wall would look much better on the cupboard doors ........ so I transferred it.  And it did look much better on the cupboard doors .......... but now the wall looked blank so I went downstairs and took the Japanese lantern/light down and put it up in the bedroom against the bare wall.  Then I breathed a sigh of contentment cause the room was FINISHED!   As I was leaving the room I shut one cupboard tight ............. and.............. the damn door fell off the track.

Do you think I can get it back on track??!!!  No of course not !!!  WHY would anything with this project be simple????   But I keep telling myself the damn door just fell off ........ easily.......... so how difficult can it be to get it back??  DAMN difficult.  It is now resting against one of the walls waiting for W........ hopefully he will be able to get the damn thing back on track.  (for someone who rarely remembers to close the damn doors it surprises me that having the doors open is driving me CRAZY!!)

Yesterday was a crash and burn day........ I woke up at 8:40 (which for me is REALLY sleeping in) and laid down at 2 for a little rest - after only doing groceries - and slept till 4.......... 

Today isn't shaping up to be any better.......... that pile of housework and yard work is still waiting for me........... why can't there be fairies to do the damn chores ........ then I wouldn't feel so damn guilty about doing nothing............. 


On that note........... off I go to tackle something............ anything ......... and feel like I am a productive member of society............
