What a miserable day. A couple hours after I woke up I realized I was
going blind... the sure signs of a migraine coming on. I used to get
them in high school, less frequently in college, and none at all in the
past few years. Once one's on its way, there's nothing you can do but
cancel your appointments and slink into bed. Ugh. At least the worst
seems to have passed now and I can see again. Now I've got a lingering,
throbbing headache, but at least I'm not nausious anymore. And they
still don't have a cure for these things.
On the up side this
week, the new roof looks splendid. Seems to have gotten put on without a
hitch. It has a lot more texture to it than the old, light gray
shingles that have been up there since before I was born. Next on the
outdoor list is getting new siding or at least new paint. If I had all
my druthers in a row, I wish I could have natural stone siding.. always
loved that look.. but that's just way too much money to spend on such a
thing. As for paint, I'd really like something in the mauve-ish area,
but a little more subtle. Or maybe a blue-ish or gray-ish lavender is
the way to go. Then again, I wouldn't want a color that'd lower
property values of the whole block. That's no way to win friends and
influence people.
