Because obviously we just can't construct a damn thing without their help and support.
Ahem.
I've been looking for a new dining table for several months, but couldn't find exactly what I wanted. Until I stopped by Pier 1 on Saturday.
I loved it, but it did require a little DIY construction. Thankfully, I happen to be lucky enough to have an honest-ta-gawd, real, live handyman at my beck and call.
And a couple of cats.
Simon supervises.
"He's not doin it right!"
Both da boys get in on the "helping" action.
Simon makes sure that Ziggy stays on task by holding him down.
Construction complete, Simon grabs a well-deserved snooze. Hey...supervising is hard work.
In other news...I went to the doc this morning. The good news is that my blood pressure was 110/78 and my cholesterol was 158!
The bad news is that I'm now "officially" a Type II diabetic and my left knee is truly and completely fucked. My doc thinks I need a knee replacement. I think I'm gonna put that little adventure off as long as I can. I have an appointment with an ortho next week, so we'll see what he thinks.
Oh, and to add insult to injury, I've gained 8 pounds since I quit smoking. I suppose I should be thankful it was only 8. (sigh)
But I can't figure out how I managed to lower my cholesterol and raise my blood sugar and gain weight...all while working like hell to eat healthy.
I'm not kiddin...I've cut out damn near all carbs...no bread, potatoes, rolls, donuts, cake, cookies, pasta (sob!); no sugar, no fast foods, no junk foods...and I still gained weight.
In the last month or so, I've even fixed a couple of recipes using
Kale!
