What looms over YOUR head?
Anyone got a project they're putting off? Something that's a dark cloud over your skull?

Myself, I've got to dig up the waste pipe from my house to the sewer line in the street to find the leak.... :eyes:

1. I have several tile mosaic projects waiting to be done.. the landing
inside the front door, with pebbles, to make it look like an oriental rug; the fireplace to sort of match.

Then the entire bathroom to look like a morrocan palace bathroom, in tiny mosaic bits..

Then... THE KITCHEN. Design not complete.

**sigh**

5. I need to take the GRE.
Also get papers together to apply for a mortgage loan, clean off my writing desk, organize my bill desk, clean up my filing cabinet.

Ugh. I think I'll go back to bed now.

8. I'm writing a training manual...due tomorrow!
YIKES!!!

Interspersed with that is all the OTHER crap I do during my work week. Plus, I MUST have my DU breaks! :D

I'm delivering training the week of October 6th! Next week is review and comment period for my manual. Luckily we have an intern from our field staff who is assisting me with a large section, or I'd be screwed!

This afternoon, I am getting into full production mode. :-)

12. Ulnar nerve transposition surgery
The orthopedist wants to do it a.s.a.p., because I can barely hold a pen in my right hand without EXCRUCIATING pain, and my gruip strength is somewhat less than my granny's on one of her BAD days. :(

13. My muffler decided to fall off the other day
and I didn't get a replacement yet. It now sounds like it is ready for trouble - I'm ready to race anybody!

(anybody that is running or cycling, that is. This is NOT a muscle car)

16. Lots!
Two female dogs to have spayed and horney old Bud, needs to have his nuts cut off. (I took the dogs in when my neighbors house burned and they abandoned the dogs).
Need to build a comfortable dog house for the coming winter. (I am going to heat it- it will be sweet!)
Need to build a new well house- the old one is falling apart.
I need to clear about 1/2 mile of tree line and dispose of the trees. I bought this place last year and it hadn't been taken care of for at least three years!
I need to mend some fences, the cows keep trying to escape- I guess they figure if they can make it to canada they won't wind up as a happy meal.

Of course, being a single man, my house needs a good cleaning.

Maybe I can call up those queer eye guys? If they can make-over an apartment, they could help me with the fences and treeline!
