No snow here-sunny, windy with a norther blowing in to take us down to 22-25 tonight. Snow would be nice, though...

I told that lady I did the bid for that I wouldn't be able to schedule her wall paneling for over a month (not true), but she was already trying to get me to cut corners by using cheap materials that wouldn't look good, and she would be unhappy with the results. I hate to turn down work, but people like that are never happy because they won't spend just a bit more to get the job done with stuff that really looks good-they'd rather save 25 dollars and use cheap s***. I really can live without customers like that....

not sure what they are predicting here for tomorrow. i have enjoyed a completely do nothing day. these are too few and far between. laptop on the kitchen table, fox news on the fam room tv and me puttering in the kitchen. a wonderfully relaxing day. i did not leave the house at all and don't intend to!

-sounds like she would give you lots of grief, better to let someone else land that job. I am off for a nap before six, keep warm down there.......it's freezing here!
