quiet night

HI, just a quiet night in. Long day at work, tired right out now. Should iron some laundry but too tired. Just realized I am entering another one of those three weeks with no days off sessions....gack. I do have some bits of free time here and there though. seems like I have too much to do and not enough time to do it, started out today with a three item list, which became an 8 item list. I managed to get most of it done, but then more stuff pops up at the end of the day and I may only get half hour tomorrow at my desk, so don't know how much I will get done. when you are tired, it just feels so difficult. I had this great idea for my program next week, about 2 p.m. this aft. Thought it was great, till about 6 p.m. when I was in the lumberyard with Bruce. The idea is each kid has 6 cubes of wood, 2 in square. you paint it up and glue a photo to the top adn bottom sides to make a fathers day puzzle. (thank you family fun magazine!) Supposed to use double sided adhesive paper to stick on the picture. Well, if you buy nice little cubes of wood in Michaels, it would cost 7 bucks a kid, so not an option. They didn't have enough anyway. so we go to the lumberyard, and for about 5 bucks, get two 2 by 2 by 8 which Bruce will have to saw into little cubes for me, and I will have to sand, and possibly prime or paint or something. So the price is right, but how much work will this be???? Dunno, bit off more than I can chew, probably , but no option now, I already phoned the parents to ask for the photos...The paper turned out to be about ten bucks for two sheets and I suspect would not work well anyway on this wood. So I bought 20 bucks of some kind of adhesive that had better work, or else! And a ten dollar xacto knife to cut the picture once it is glued onto the cubes....Seemed like such a good idea at the time, now I am feeling bad about it, but I will feel better after a rest. After this shopping, we got home late and had to make supper and my brain feels like its swimming through jello.
It's my dad's birthday tommorrow, but I suspect we will take him out on saturday. I may get a chance to have coffee with him. Going to call now and see. Just might be able to sandwich it between Bron's appt and work....wish me luck. Hope you are all fine out there. Take care and be well. D
