huge gigantic ugly job because yeah you basically have to move out anyway we're going to be going over to the flooring place to pick out flooring hopefully and get somebody get an appointment to get somebody over here to do some measuring and all of that stuff that's it for the moment though i'll be there hi guys it is Monday morning still technically morning for five more minutes it's 11 55 um i've spent the morning meeting with contractors and i think i finally found a handyman that's i think i think a good one after more than 20 years um so he's going to be here next week fixing a bunch of little things on my list that's been kind of growing for a while so that went well i also got all of november commitments filmed um this morning and in and around that meeting and i think i'm in a good place so i'm gonna go run a couple errands and have some lunch and then i'll spend the rest of the afternoon editing the video and hopefully get it uploaded tonight and then tomorrow i will think about tackling december and then the whole year is done i have a couple of little bonus projects i want to film one of which is for the end of the year one of which is um for now immediate so um by now i mean like i'm scheduled out i think until the end of july so it would probably not air until ish so anyway something like that that's of activity around the neighborhood today um how come people aren't at work so anyway i'm gonna go run a couple errands and i will be back hi guys it is aft well after lunch i think it's two o'clock let's see two ten it's two ten it is oh tuesday june june 12 june 12 i got it right well i wasn't sure but i got it right all right so i have been working on getting the rest of 2018 commitments filmed which i did get done and they have been edited and they are currently loading to youtube woo i've also been using up some old ink pens that i had and i've been putting them on these big giant pieces of paper which have been sitting in my closet for a long time and i can do three at a time without making too big a mess and i'm going to keep doing those until the rest of the old ink pens are empty and i've got more like paper here i've got more in the closet so what am i going to do with said big pieces of paper i don't know yet um i think one of them is going to be used for a cover for the cards for my giant life for 2018 which i now have completed and that'll be a video that'll air at the end of the year if i can get it done so but i want to use up these pens first i'm also working on this densified journal and i've done cards for weeks one and two i will put pictures of the journal pages here and i am working on week three which required to stencil on leaves and then use that in your work and i have actually real leaves but they're real nature dried leaves they're pretty brittle so i have covered them here on a teflon sheet with matte medium and i'm going to let them dry and then i'm going to flip them over and give them another layer of matte medium and let them dry then i'm probably going to give them a coat of acrylic paint um or stencil on them um depending on how much sturdier the matte medium has helped make them i might need to do two coats of matte medium we'll see i want to kind of use up what i have i don't want to go buy stuff and i have these and they need to be used and so i'll let you know how it turns out i don't have any idea all right i'm going to go get the mail now and eat some lunch because i kind of have headache okay so i picked up the mail and i got something from my friend peg robinson which i kind of was and wasn't expecting she kind of threatened to send me some things and i said no you don't need to but i think she did anyway um and then i got something from apg jamie here that's what she goes by here on youtube and it's supposedly some winnings from something which is interesting because i don't remember entering anything to win stuff so there's that not that i didn't i just don't remember anyway real cute envelope whenever chance i will share with you all and uh yeah i'm going to go home and eat some lunch now provided all the truck drivers who are student drivers don't run me over oh my god i live near a department of motor vehicles in case those of you aren't aware and it's usually fairly interesting trying to get past the dmv to my house and back yeah i don't know are you supposed to know how to drive before you go to dmv to take your license test that's it i'll be back the gardeners are here it's not going to be a quiet lunch they're going to drive the dog crazy oh well hey guys it is wednesday uh i know it's wednesday june 13th i think um it is almost two o'clock in the afternoon and this is the first time i'm vlogging it has been a crazy busy morning with um getting a couple of last minute videos filmed that i wanted to get done um ahead and um and then rescheduling other videos i'd already scheduled so i could squeeze one of the new videos into the lineup so to speak and all of that and then i was doing a um online conference call tutorial with cindy udder regarding um her new mac book computer and i movie and um how to make animated intros on keynote and endings and all of that stuff and if you guys want to know how to do that i recommend highly um the youtube channel david a cox and if you haven't heard of him and don't know who is what his channel is i will link it below if i forget someone remind me anyway so we are here i um of course out at the p o box i need to pick up the mail i need to get a envelope in the mail to one of my design team members for some products that she needs and um and i need to go home and do laundry and i think there's dirty dishes in the sink and i should probably eat lunch yeah because there's that all right that's it for the moment i'll be back sure what today i started i've had some problems with thinning hair um for a while now um actually it started a long time ago when i started taking blood pressure medication which is known to cause hair thinning uh and i don't think that the asthma meds help any and then you have menopause and so anyway it's not just a man thing it's also a women thing and uh i started just today using um nyoxin my sister who is a former cosmetologist recommends nyoxin i use a shampoo and conditioner and this is the leave-in scalp treatment so we started that today so cross your fingers um so i got all my goop in my hair and you know that's all right so i think i'm ready to go now and we're going to go hit up dollar tree although i can pretty much guarantee what i'm looking for they won't have you know um my friend cindy udder recently sent me some feather stickers they were actually wall decals this is my bathroom by the way i'll show you we'll walk into the art room um i used them on a stencil fired journal page let me find it and uh they look like this these feathers here i love them so much i used up all the ones she sent me and now i'm looking for more of them if you if you see them at your dollar tree i could use some i could use some so anyway i'm going to go check my dollar tree out but i've already checked there like two or three times they haven't had them i'm thinking they're just not getting them um i checked them before and after she found them at her dollar tree and you know how that goes anyway i've been getting more business emails this morning and it's just starting to drive me crazy and i need to step away from the devices or at least the computers and tablets i'm never away from the phone anyway i'm gonna go run some errands and yeah get out of the house for a bit maybe get some steps in oh i have to go put my fifth in on it's charging i haven't remembered to put it on for like three weeks i know right anyway i'll be back didn't i say they wouldn't have them they don't have them they don't have actually any wall decals at this dollar tree this dollar tree is so bad every time i come there's like they never have anything that i want most of our dollar trees in san jose are just not well stocked i don't know why that is anyway i'm gonna go run the rest of my errands i'll be back hey everybody it is friday i think it's october 15th because explorations me came out this morning i think it is already 104 p.m i've spent the morning chatting with contractors and i've been working on some more pages for the stencil fight journal um prompts that are being put out by stencil girl i'm doing a few pages in advance and um the prompts come out every monday going forward for like 16 weeks or
