Monday, Monday

Another "hot and sticky" day....

Hung 6 rolls of paper on 2 walls in a 14th floor condo on Lake Anne in Reston today. Easy job but a real pain getting in and out. I made it until noon without a cigarette and then the lack of nicotine got to me enough to go out on the balcony. This is a desperate move since I am petrified of high places. I hugged the patio door so tight my butt marks have to be imprinted in it and then I literally crept to a flower pot to use as an ashtray. Was not worth repeating so I finished work real fast and got out of there for the next lightup.

The view is spectacular from up there and I think the skyline I was seeing in the distance was DC, 30 miles away. The building is on a lake which has a large waterspout in the center and a group of shops around a large concrete patio area that goes to the lake edge.

Two more jobs called in today so things are looking up and I might actually be able to pay some bills and eat too. (lol)

Stopped at Lowe's on the way home and bought a crepe myrtle tree and a sand cherry bush/tree and 2 bags of mulch. Planted those tonight after it cooled down enough to breathe and then hopped in the shower. Feeling pretty good now and ready for bed.
