Busy...

Three things and then I'm off to work:

It's frikkin' cold! The moon was gorgeous last night and this morning is bright and beautiful but as I look outside to the garden I can see thet the peppers, broccoli, cauliflower and tomato plants are hanging, all wilty and dejected-looking. Yep, the gardening is definitely over for this year.

I realized in the middle of the night that I've got to whip together this costume for Boare's Head on Saturday. What I wore last year won't zip. Dammit.

And finally, the dogs don't like it when I go up to sew and it's a problem. It's too cold for me to feel anything but horribly mean leaving them outside but then they come upstairs which isn't good. Pepper should *not* be climbing those wooden stairs and it's worse going down them. That makes it awfully hard for me to focus on my work. But I must. And then there's all the house-cleaning that must be done, too. Think I'm gotta have to get some help to get this all done. *sigh*

And I've got a monster headache poised right at the back of my neck, waiting to pounce.

Have you tried using a baby gate at the bottom of the stairs? Then they could stay in the house but could not climb the stairs...Just a thought.

Well, first- we don't have one. And second, there's no way to attach it..one side of the steps is just there - no wall, no railing. But I think we gotta rig something. It's just too cold to leave poor old Pepper outside! Terry's being the worst woosie about it but he's got a heavy coat.

This looks like a job for "Jury-rig Engineering Man!"

*Starts looking around for Jury-Rig Engineering Man, because that surely isn't him at the moment*

...'specially since he isn't here at the moment!

The compromise is that they're outside and I'm feeling guilty. But I'm gonna hafta wake up the girl pretty soon anyway since there's massive housework to be done.

Not to mention the state of the bathroom upstairs...

*Buzzes the Girl's phone*

Well, she should be at class for the next 15 minutes, and I did get the voicemail. Here's hoping. *Grimace*

I've already talked to her and read her a riot-act. I was quite perturbed, since I had spoken to her at 7AM and she was awake then.

Good; she's a champion sleeper ...and it concerns me. She's got a butt-load of bad maternal genes on the motivation issues to overcome.

To that sentiment (About the less-than-ideal maternal genes), I say this:

Wourd.

And yeah. There's been some verbal booting, and it'll settle down once she's not working till bum-frag-in-the-morning and not having to drive her tail into classes.

I hope so...I also hope she's not gonna be pissed 'cause we're talking about her on an open LJ post!

*chuckle* Well, at least she knows she's loved!

We'll be forgiven... I hope.
