Let the Games Begin...

Well, my impatience (I like to call it eagerness) has struck again. Yesterday, I wanted to scrub the back, upstairs porch so we could sit out there. It was filthy dirty (as my Mom would say). When I went out on the porch, the floor was worse than ever. The janky, canvas floor covering had rips all over it and the paint was cracked and peeling off everywhere. So I decided, in my infinite wisdom, to pull all the canvas off the floor boards. Surprisingly, the boards below are really cool. They're 5 inch planks. Yeah, so I commence to washing. I scrub the siding, the banisters, the floor. It looks fabulous. I'm envisioning how I can simply put a nice coat of grey paint on the floor and how nice it will look. Then I go downstairs. You likely already guessed. The pantry off the kitchen looks like a sinking ship. At least 2 inches of water on the floor, water streaming down the sides, water has even ran down into the basement. Water Water Everywhere.

Let the summertime, house antics begin...

Question?

If you were a car title for a 1994 Eagle Talon, where would you hide?

Who Said You Can't Beat City Hall?

I am very pleased to inform you that I won my appeal for my parking violation! My hearing was scheduled with Cleveland Municipal Court for this morning at 9:30. My name was called at 9:45 and by 10 a.m. my ticket was thrown out. Special thank you to Magistrate Wolcott for hearing me out and coming to this decision. The whole process was smooth. Justice prevailed.

Happy Easter

We made it to my Mom's on Sunday around 2pm for side meat and all the fixins. We found her car (below) encased in a block of snow. The highlight of dinner was hearing a horrible crashing sound and looking out to see the gutter on Mama's house hanging in the driveway. Mama and Billy were over in no time to rip it down! Damn. I'm so mad I didn't snap a picture.

I'm dreaming of a white Easter...

Man did Cleveland ever receive a punch in the gut over the weekend. Nearly 2 feet of snow fell from Saturday to Sunday on C-town. We awoke to some of the deepest snow of the year. It took Juliano 2 hours to shovel out the car.
