Alright. You’ve probably noticed so I might as well come clean… I’ve been in a funk this week. But really — am I the only one who finds this whole protest thing just utterly depressing? And then there’s the election… depressing. Media? Depressing. I need to quit reading the news.
Then there’s the inspection racket the city of Glendale has going where they invent a new requirement every time the inspector comes, which costs State Farm more money every time, and keeps setting our completion date back. Our contractor still believes we will get back in the house by Thanksgiving, but we’ve lost 2 weeks of October now so it will be touch and go.
There are ways, however, to combat the funk. One is as follows: go to Bed Bath & Beyond and find yourself some sweet kitchen utensils to replace the ones you’ve been missing since May:
Oxo Good Grips Smooth Edge Can Opener
All Purpose Stainless Steel 10-Ounce Shaker with Handle
Silicone Whisks – Set of 2
Long Handled Mesh Strainers Set of Three
Blue Silicone Spatula
(Actually the one I got was red, and had a wooden handle, but I couldn’t find a picture of that one anywhere on the www.)
Next week I propose that Nettie get her act together and return to normal blogging mode. All those in favor, pray for me.
