I called in sick today. I just feel so run down. I went to bed at 5 yesterday, got up for about 30 minutes at 7:30 and went back to bed. Then, I got winded getting dressed this morning.

Feel better, LL and Lindley's husband!

I have to take Kermit in to be inspected today.

Other than that, maybe some laundry.

Have a good day, everyone!smile

Good luck with the inspection, FWM!

Not sure if I'm starting to get sick or if it's just allergies but for the last week I've been sneezing a LOT and sleeping way later than I ever do. Plus I get stuffy and then not. UGH! And some how a fly has gotten in here and it is insisting on driving past my face time and time again. *I will get you, my pretty!* [insert evil laugh]

LL, go see your doctor. Being tired is one thing, getting winded getting dressed is not a good sign.

Hope your hubs gets better fast.

Those inspections are a pain in the butt, but I wish we still had them here. 

FS, whats the fly driving? I know, a Miata? Or a Mini Cooper? biggrin

I had an appointment this morning, I'm usually awake but I set my alarm last night. Well. I slept through the alarm. Slept like a log. Haven't slept like that in months. Now I have to reschedule.

Wow, LL! Get yourself to a doctor! Sending prayers your way!

Lindley, hope your DH feels better soon! A sick DH is no fun, ever.

Hello Trudy, FNW, FWM, Lily and FS!

I have had a very busy week. The weekend is going to busier! I will be hitting the road in about a half hour.

Sorry for the fly by hit. biggrin

Have a great weekend all!

So I picked DD up from school. She is getting her bottom braces on today. The office lady knows H and went on and on about her and what a great kid she is. Then she exclaims that she had something to give DD. Apparently DD found $100 bill last June in the hallway and turned it into the office. No one has claimed it so they gave DD the money today. She immediately turned to me and handed me the envelope knowing I would tell her we are putting it in the bank. LOL I told her that will go toward her 8th grade trip to DC.

I need some ideas. We finished painting the bathroom, Aaron did the lion's share. I want to do something in these shelves to give it some pizazz. 

20171019_135244-1.jpg

 

I thought about hot gluing these on the edge but I think they'll pop off too easy.

20171019_135217-1.jpg

 

As you can see, the bathroom is a nice 70s mint green. I like it, really. Has that retro vibe to it. 

 

I've thought about doing a stencil in the shelves. Then I thought about doing a gradient in them. I've thought about painting the edges a fun color. 

 

Ideas? 

 

Here's the catch, next Summer we are replacing all the floors and when that happens, all that tile is coming off, as well. So I don't want to spend a lot of time and money on it, I just want it to look good til then.

You could paint the back wall of each shelf a contrasting color or use wall paper there as well:

I vote for paint the back or put some wall paper up.

I don't want to use wallpaper. Especially if it's going to be torn out.

But where the wallpaper is in the picture is where I want to do something cool.

 Then paint the back white, when totally dry use masking tape and tape off diagonal stripes and paint the blue.  Pull off the tape and viola!

I'd do it. I could do a nice chevron paint pattern or small diamonds.

Dark blue? Or something more subtle like white?

Knowing I was re-doing the bathroom, I wouldn't be putting much work into it. Some pretty colored baskets, and a few cute accents and towels. A clear jar with some colored soaps, etc.

I'm leaving the house now. My temperature is back up to normal, I'm feeling a little better. I have to go get Jojo from school.

 Your temp went down? This information along with the fatigue and getting winded makes me think iron and potassium are down. 

Red meat, dark, leafy greens, and bananas would help. 

I still think you should go to the doctor.

 Yes.  It was 95 when I woke up.  It could easily be the iron thing - my iron gets low occasionally.  I think I was dehydrated, too.  I drank a TON of water today, and I'm feeling a lot better.  

 

I'm going to make an appointment for a complete physical.  I also want to get my thyroid checked.

 Good. Low iron can be debilitating if left unattended. Are you anemic? I am. I get the "you need blood" threat from almost every doctor now. 

The potassium thing is really dangerous, so make sure they check that.
