Today was a very blah and grey day and I was not feeling well at all so I hibernated and pretty much slept all day. I don't know if I can come up with a little thing today because I've felt so yucky all day.
This was taken yesterday .... I like the light, the cheery colours, the patterns on the wall.
Hope you all had a good day!
Using my new pasta drying rack that a friend got me. I absolutely LOVE making my own pasta and the rack was a real treat!
A quick still of what was just being washed in the kitchen. I played a bit with an off-camera flash and reflecting off a 12-inch saucer top. That was fun!
Pick up a cheap, vintage 45rpm-record rack (like these: goo.gl/IpCU2N) for drying your smallish print projects. Bonus: you'll get extra points for retro studio stylings.
There was this vine thing growing over the fence; it's all gone now! I'm so happy! Now, if they could just keep their two dogs from barking all the friggin' time!

No room for a drying rack? Cut some pieces of stiff board to the size of a typecase, and pull out the case below to support it.
21 in two and a half days.
We need to work on our timing. Inevitably, as soon as we change one, another one is dirtied.
The sun does wonders for removing stains, though.

I took this snapshot in my dorm room in Torres House on north campus because it really illustrates how much time I spend at my athletic training clinicals during an average week. I work with the women's volleyball team every single day for up to 7 hours a day (sometimes more if there is a home game), so my weekly attire literally consists of khaki pants/shorts and the issued athletic training dry-fit t-shirts. While doing my laundry last week, I hung everything up to dry and thought it was the perfect moment to capture my usual attire. My ultimate goal in life is to become a physical therapist, and I feel that this snapshot shows how my days at OSU this semester are a lot different than your average college student. All of my classes are revolved around my clinical hours, and I don't mind it one bit. While the athletic training program is not easy, it is the best path to take in order to gain the most hands-on experience that I can bring with me to graduate school. I want nothing more than to be successful and support my family and parents in the future as they have done for me in the past and in the present. One thing that I like about this snapshot is the single, red athletic training polo at the bottom of the drying rank. I only wear that polo on game days, so it shows that while I have to work many long hours and attend many long practices, the hard work eventually pays off and I am allowed to work a Division 1 volleyball game on my own - all because my patients/athletes trust me.
SOME of today's yard sale booty. Not pictured here or in the other pictures: *NICE* camping backpack, sleeping mat like the 2 we have, scanner, bathroom towel/TP/robe hanger set, vacuum bags.
The monitor stand ($2, sold for $35.50 online) is working out REALLY well.
We still haven't tried the Make Your Own Beer + refill, but, at $4, they will work out to SEVEN CENT BEERS in the end. Way cheaper than buying them new (about $43).
The make your own soda kit ($22 originally, $1 for us) was incomplete, but we got one night's alcoholic drink mix from it, and still have intense cherry syrup and flavor crystals to use for random things in the future. (We used up all the citric acid, making the fizziest drink we've ever had.)
The $8 cast iron skillet was probably overpriced, as it was a bit rusty, and a new one that size could be gotten for the sameprice. All we've done with that is made the largest fires to ever exist in our house, and made it more rusty. May be giving that one away...
The dish rack is great -- ours was dirty and falling apart, but our old one fits inside the new one, so now we have 2 racks in the space of 1, so we are less likely to get a backup.
The cake dome we got for Tabbitha, the Etch-A-Sketch freestyle for our new nephew Sagan.
The quesadilla maker is the same one we already have! Regretted not getting it for $5 at a yard sale. Then got it for $5 at a another yard sale, months later. Now we want two, so we can do 2 at once. I guess not getting the first $5 one actually saved us $4!
The weird lightbulb is an exact duplicate of one we got for christmas -- and still have up in our light. Nice to have a $1 backup of something that costs $4 new.
The weirdest thing is the metal Beatles Yellow Submarine box (10 cents), which I took more pictures of.

BACKSTORY: This was another yard sale trip where we didn't record the stats. We got pretty sloppy! We didn't even have any addresses in our predetermined route. We spent $32.00 for a total estimated value of $215.29, leading to a profit/savings of $183.29.
THE TAKE:
* $10.00: digital picture frame, Insignia, NS-DPFO712G, V 1.0H, 7", 800x480, 128MB internal memory, SD/MS/MMC/xD/USB, (EV:$16.72). - Clint has streamlined the process of deploying new picture frames using scripts. We automatically create secondary photo repositories in the native resolution of every photo frame we have. Clint drops 2 option files and runs 1 command, and photos are synced to the picture frame. Perfectly. It's usually worth grabbing one, when we see one, now. We're up to 4 (plus 2-3 dead ones from the past).
* $8.00: train, Christmas, North Pole Express, 33 pieces, forward/stop/reverse/ headlight, Christmas songs, EZTec, locomotive, oil tak car, elves car, box car, caboose, 7 road signs, 12 curved tracks, 8 straight tracks, wireless remote control, item no 37187, barcode 019071378172 (EV:$72.22). - Our nephew, Lincoln, loved the train set when we gave it to him for Christmas! It turned out that he already had the North Pole train, but when you're 3, you can never have too many trains. Also, it had slightly different cars so that worked out anyway.
* $5.00: mat, floor, foam, puzzle pieces, alphabet and numbers (35), 12.75x12.75", red/yellow/purple/orange/blue/green (EV:$1.49). - The floor mat ended up being a rip-off. We taped the letters together, and then we put a mylar space blanket on it so we can use it for electrical play.
* $4.00: step stool, purplish (fuchsia) with white polka dots, collapsible, 11x8.5" stool part, 12.5x10 leg span, 9" high (EV:$9.97). (This is apparently not pictured)
* $1.00: stacking desk file trays (3), plastic, black, 13x9x3" (EV:$1.90). (These are not pictured either)
* $1.00: pot, small, with lid, Anolon Advanced, hard-anodized nonstick, 1 1/2 qt / 1.4L, T Q06, 5.5" diameter, 12" span with handle (EV:$55.99). - We haven't used that small pot yet, but it's with our camping gear, waiting for us to go camping again. Seems perfectly-sized for camping.
* $1.00: shower grip handle, MHI, suction mount (EV:$10.30). - This definitely helps us out when we are in the shower. We had given one to Clint's grandma many years ago.
* $2.00: drying rack, telescoping, folding, yellow and gray plastic, Hangaway, (EV:$29.00). - The drying rack came in handy when our dryer broke! We already own one, but with a broken dryer, you really need 4 or so. (We hung the excess off the various lines running on our ceiling, and various Christmas lights. It was a crappy 4 months, manually drying our clothes inside.)
* $FREE: ball, bouncing, green, Minions, ~8" diameter, Hedstrom, CPSIA phthalate compliant, A2805, barcode 033149106272, (EV:$14.06). - We got that green bouncy ball just in time for the Green party.
* $FREE: ball, bouncy, orange with yellow, ~2" diameter, (EV:$3.64)
Not as clever as it looks, but it does allow both sides to dry at the same time. It's just tricky to paint a swinging object. Tomorrow I'll try painting both sides at the same time to keep them from swinging. That would be slick. I roll the paint on first then brush the surface lightly with a paint brush to give it that brush stroke look. Brush strokes are not fashionable right now, but I'm not into the industrial Ikea look of sprayed enamel.
I'm very keen to see how this linseed oil paint works. It's supposed to go on in thin layers to aid in drying; (it also doesn't drip when thin coats are applied so it's okay to paint vertical and not flat.) But that means applying two coats and it took me four hours to do them all once.
I ordered the paint online from a company in New York that is the exclusive dealer of this solvent free organic plant based paint from Sweden. Goes by the name Allback. A Swedish painter, who fell ill from the solvents in paints, looked at what was used before petro-chemicals and discovered a recipe for paint made from linseed oil and improved it. It's not only solvent free it's supposed to last 50 years so of course I had to try it out. It's sold by the same people who sell the silent paint remover and costs $124 for 3 liters (not even a gallon). At that price it better be good.
It's supposed to be denser than regular paints since no solvents to evaporate so covers more square footage. And the primer is a shellac suspended in water which was really easy to apply. I used rags in each hand and did both sides at once. The paint itself has a heavy oil smell and must have something in it that irritates my throat so I put on a respirator after 3 hours. For a green product that's a drawback given all the zero VOC paints available, but oil paints are so much more superior for durability. I wouldn't do kitchen cabinets in a water based paint. Some even use auto paint sprayed on.
The sword wielding flying woman on the back of my coveralls is from a photo I took in Poland of a statue of their national heroine. I made it into a silkscreen. That was forever ago in a Foothill college art class.
Saturday morning, unrealistically quiet with the urge to take pictures. No need to go far in this case.
