It's one of those weekends

Yesterday, the end of my work week (I'm part-time), I looked at the long To-Do list, considered the shortness of certain deadlines, and packed up quite a pile of stuff in the hopes of getting a little accomplished at home. A much fainter hope was that I might get in to the office over the weekend and do even more.

So much for hopes.

weekend activities, accomplished and planned )
I have a strong feeling that all the work I brought home will be carted back to the office on Monday, untouched.

Vague thoughts on remodeling

I don't think I've mentioned here that I'm finally getting serious about tackling a kitchen remodel. After all, I've owned this house 10 years, and I said the kitchen needed remodeling when I first looked at it. (The bowed formica countertop and 1960's appliances are just some of the reasons why.)

But in these days of making lists of what I might want before I talk to a designer, [livejournal.com profile] patgund posted The Dilbert House. There are lots of things I really like about that house, but I'm in love with the Cat Room. Must see if the waist-height counter for the litterbox, with steps leading to it for the cats, can be built in my utility room somehow. The utility room is to be connected to the kitchen in the planned remodel, you see, in part to allow the litterbox to move out of the kitchen.
