On Sunday morning I went to a tweetup with friends at Geaghan's for breakfast. 
I went to the Bangor Home Show and the only thing I found interesting was the Hobbit Holes for sale.

One of my light fixtures was all green. I polished it and was surprised to find out that it wasn't brass, but that it was copper! I rarely see copper fixtures so yay for that. I love copper!

I painted the mirror I found at Mardens green and hung it up in the dining room. 
I thought the room needed more green.

Remember the leopard chairs?
Check them out now. Pretty, eh?

Still not feeling well. I purchased the one gardening tool I really needed so hopefully I can work on the front yard this weekend if I have the energy. Enjoy the Gizmo picture. What? You don't have Gizmo on your nightstand guarding your Chapstick?

Today

I spent majority of the day outside trying to do some yardwork.
I did 4 trips to the dump which included filling my car with branches 3 times. I need a truck.
I think I looked quite a sight with my hair all messed up. The guy at the dump noticed my multiple trips and said I was busy today. I think everyone else had the same idea as me because the dump was busy. 

By the time I took a break it was starting to get cold 
but I did at least hang out in my hammock for a bit.

I tried out using spray paint today instead of regular paint. I bought this mirror at Mardens for $15 but it was black which doesn't really go in my house so I decided to paint it white. If I am patient I noticed the benefit of spray painting doing multiple coats. I may use it again to prime a piece of furniture that is my next project.

My socks end up everywhere, I toss them off at night

I bowled for Big Brothers and Big Sisters Saturday morning. 
I did not attempt to steal these shoes. ;)

I was joking around to try to only get 1 pin each frame but messed it up with getting a strike. 

I went to Home Depot and bought some dirt to some work around the yard. 
This is the walk way to the house, looks so much better now.
I played Poker Saturday night with friends. I wasn't very lucky with the hands I was dealt, but I did go home with some money and heard some funny stories.

Today

this weed is all over my garden and yard :/

Yay! There has been progress on cutting down the large tree in my yard


I went to the an event  at University of Maine where Beth Rodden spoke about being a rock climber.
I thought it was very interesting and cool to meet her in person.

I won a coat in the Raffle at the event! 

After the event I had a beer at Woodman's with friends.


Happy Friday the 13th

Lunch from Moe's BBQ Shrimp Moe Boy with Mac & Cheese and Jambalaya 

Bowling!
OMG I got above 100! My normal goal is 50 so this was amazing.
My friend Chad helped me improve my game, now I'm competition :)

Tried B Nektar Zombie Killer Cherry Cyster at Nocturnem Draft Haus
(Yes had to try it due to the name and it was yummy)

I couldn't resist grabbing some Easter clearance at Target (basket & bunnies)

I also couldn't resist this from Target, 
coin purse probably for a child from Easter but I thought it was cute.

Today

This morning felt like something out of a Stephen King novel with the fog

It irks me a little that I can not have a business empire with my name

It rained and there was a beautiful rainbow. 
I replaced an old painted knob with another old door knob. 
Eventually I want all of the knobs to be the white porcelain ones like the ones downstairs in the house.
