Avalanche

Ikea Avalanche…

Ikevalanche…

I think I like that last one. Ikevalanche. That describes what happened to our house. Ikea exploded and it caused an avalanche in our living and dining rooms. Ikevalanche, babie.

The cats are oblivious.

Photo a Day for Today

I am in the office today and my schedule has been insanely hectic. Just crazy busy.

Fortunately I snuck in a photo for the photo a day challenge thing before I left the house this morning.

Got it in by the skin of my teeth. Whew!

Bill of Lading

Lily is laying on top of a pair of multi-page Bills of Ladings.

IKEA delivery complete. 170-something boxes. One item shipped incorrectly and one item missing. Neither of them are mission critical. I have to pick up a few more things from IKEA tomorrow after work. Other than that, we’re good to go.

Stressing Out

I’m trying not to lose my shit today. The stress level is very high.

IKEA has not delivered yet. When they do they are going to drop off almost 200 boxes worth of kitchen cabinets and related stuff. Those nearly 200 boxes are likely going to fill up every single spec of empty space in our house. When it gets here we need to catalog the whole batch to make sure nothing is missing. Yeah, I am freaking out.

On top of that, someone important to me tested positive for Covid-19 today. Fuck-a-doodle-do.

Robin is completely unphased by any of this and I am freakin’ jealous.

Step One: Complete

The first baby step of the kitchen remodeling is complete. We had a plumber here who disconnected everything in the kitchen. Next step is the first of the IKEA deliveries. It’s only supposed to be a few boxes. The landslide/avalanche of IKEA stuff happens tomorrow.

The cats are hiding. Will they remain in hiding until the project is complete? Maybe.

Hanging Out

Two cats, one tree. Just hanging out on a Sunday night, watching Star Trek: Voyager with me and my love.

Frozen the (Car) Musical

I’ve been home from this morning’s car music for about 15 minutes and I’m still frozen solid. It was 15 degrees out when I left the house and I sat in the car recording my dumb ass self singing (badly) for a touch over an hour. By the time I finished I was so cold, I can’t even tell you.

Despite the frigidness, car music was a success. I put vocals on all five songs that needed them. That means all 20 songs in this year’s RPM Challenge pipeline have their vocal tracks down. Holy shit snacks, Batman! 20 songs!

Now I just need to add lead guitars to 11 of those songs and mix 17 of them… with only four-plus days remaining. Crud.

Pics!
