Yesterday, DH and SIL and DD and I spent the day tearing out the flooring in the upstairs bathroom and foyer thingie at the top of the stairs. Dd helping by eating anything bite sized that came anywhere near her (tile, carpet fuzz... whatever).
DH repainted the bathroom to match the tile (which is not what I had hoped for, but is still lovely).
Today: tiling the bathroom.
Tomorrow: putting hardwood down in the foyer thingie.
He's off Monday and Tuesday, too. I wonder what other projects he'll think up?
**sigh**
==========================
Judy and I are busily starting something new and exciting (I imagine I'll officially announce it in the next few days), which requires me to get the whole book trailer thing down to a science. So, I've been hard at work:
I also spent time this morning updating my MySpace page (I hadn't been there since October 13th!!!) and uploading some trailers to Preview the Book.
I'm awfully bad about promoting my own work... I need to be more on the ball. Shame on me.

Those are great trailers!!! I really have to get my act together and work on mine. As soon as I reach my NaNo goal.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry that you're being kept away from Sunny, but just think what a beautiful bathroom you'll have!
A bathroom always looks so nice after it has been spruced up a bit. What color is the tile? Sorry; I'm the curious sort. :)
ReplyDeleteSending good renovator's vibes your way!
Your trailers are wonderful - very well done and appealing!
ReplyDeleteOne thing I DREAD about ever being published is the promotion portion...UGH!
I only have one knowledge gap. Art. Which proves that if guess well, you can look much smarter than you really are.
I like both trailers. I'm sorry that the renovations are interrupting your writing.

So, wait...are you writing inbetween this bathroom renovation project/watching the dog eat carpet fuzz?
ReplyDeleteYou are not bad at promotion! Your efforts amaze me. I've got a book out now and am doing so little because of the deadline, it scares me. And I really need this book to sell well!
ReplyDeleteYou're more than welcome to send your hubs here. I need to retile my bathroom as well. The sad part? We just put tile in about 2 years ago, but I don't like the grout. *G*
ReplyDeleteI hope you find the time you want, soon.
I am so glad authors are doing book trailers now! And yours are great!

Maybe he'll go back to work soon....
ReplyDeleteSuper trailer. Only one teeny tiny comment from a graphics person...
ReplyDeleteWhen you do the type for the "jilted," wouldn't it make more sense for it to separate instead of get closer together when it appears on the page? Jilting is a "separating" thing, so the direction of movement doesn't match the word.
It's subtle... and not something I'd feel bad about if life is too crazy to change it, but if you had time, well, you know.
