Uhoh! What kind of paint are you using? You said you primed right? What's happening, is the paint soaking in?

I'm using a primer that the guy at Lowe's recommended. I haven't even gotten to the painting. I'm still priming. It maybe have to do with the table being black to begin with but I sanded it before to even it all out and got most of the paint off.

I got all the paperwork together for the teacher folders. Now I need to go to Office Depot and make 10 copies of each letter, articles, probably 8 articles in all and most are more than one page, and get 20 folders. I'd print it at home but it would seriously use up about 3 ink cartridges. It usually costs me around $50 or so a year just to get the folders done. It's just easier to take it somewhere to have it printed. Then another two hours putting it all together. I want to get this all done before I go out of town next week.

It MUST be Monday. Our normal deliveries have left me with enough stuff in the floor to look like Ive been gone for a week. Then we had two freight trucks this morning. One of which was nothing but batteries. Three pallets worth. Im going to put off restacking them though. Thankfully my back is still feeling ok. For now.

Everybody grab their suits come swimming in my basement...Woke up to a flood.We had like 3 inches of rain in an hour and now I'm swimming in the basement.It really wasn't awful.I have everything on shelves....It's not over either.
Mr.??? keeps calling to report water dangers here in Nevernear...We have a beautiful little creek that flows in the back of our property...'m watching it carefully...
We have the same problem. Not quite that deep though. Its not uncommon for us to get an inch of water throughout our whole basement. We have two wet vacs to clean it up when it happens. And two dehumidifiers that run 24/7. Each of them remove about a gallon of water from the air everyday.

We just got back from the Grrr store. Mrs Punkin bought a box of Twinkies! She ate one already. I finally found something to make her smile today! ;)

twinkies make everyone smile. Did you see the Redneck Strawberry Shortcake recipe in the recipe thread? It has twinkies in it.

Tiff, I applaud you for doing what you do! Most parents just toss their kids into the school system and let them sink or swim. I'm so happy that you do so much to help them swim. :)

:blush: Thank you! I feel like it's my job to make the teachers more prepared to help my kids.

No, I'll have to go check it out. We did buy some blueberries and she made a Gin and Tonic with blueberries floating/sinking in it. Gotdang, it's gonna be a good day! :toast:

(for those that may not know, Mrs Punkin's health is not the best and she has very few good days that she enjoys. I get a kick when I see her smile and find something she enjoys)
