The Amazing Expandable House!
Feb. 28th, 2016 11:19 pm10:26pm: On this show about Tiny Houses I'm watching. It's got the ability to expand at the touch of a button! Which is really pretty neat, although I guess there'd always be an issue about what would you do if the button broke!
Although I do wonder, a lot of the people who buy these tiny houses end up setting up in a friend or family member's yard, can you do that? Don't you need a permit for that sort of thing? After all, you can't just set up a caravan any place you feel like. Especially if you consider the toilet situation!
Now there's a show called Extreme Homes on, and the current house it is totally weird, it's got cinderblock and wire walls so it's totally open to everything o.O and the name of it doesn't inspire much confidence - The Black Rose of Death, LOL, yeah not sure he gets that many people staying over. :OP
They've moved onto a place in Japan now, which reminds me of my big bro, I wonder how he and his wife are getting along with the new baby! I assume they've come home from the hospital now - they don't keep you in there very long these days...my father was released a week after having heart surgery! I also need to look into making a kangaroo plushy! I've got a month to make it.
Not much else to report, except alas I didn't set my alarm for the right time and missed out on going skating today...especially since I'm still nervous of the roads that make it easy to get there. They're narrow and there's not a lot of turn offs or anything, makes me feel claustrophobic, which is sort of dumb, but is the truth nonetheless. I'm considering catching a bus or something...which has the upside of allowing me to have reading time, but the downside of giving into the anxiety re driving.
I'm hoping to go tomorrow since I don't have work anymore, plus I need to go that way because I went to Innovations today to get Mrs S's thing, but it turned out the place wasn't open! Do'h! The website was not very clear about that, I should mention that when I go in.
I did however go to the Mall to buy the Corrs's new CD! Which was finally released here just the other day! Which is very good news, because it looked like I was going to have order it from overseas. I also got a new hand towel for the bathroom and a fabric cube to put under the table I'm going to put the dishwasher on. Although the box is a bit narrow, however the box I'm using for my paper recycling fits quite nicely, so I've swapped them around. Not sure what I'm going to do with the new cube, but it looks pretty so...
Hmm, I need to do the Memes, although I'm not sure where I'm up to now! I guess I'll just do today's and then investigate what I've missed.

How Are Ya Today Meme
1. Okay, here we go. How are ya today? I'm well! Although I'm rather confused by this house that can turn to face the sun...does one get dizzy in it or what?
2. Have you ever been so happy you felt invincible? Hmmm...I don't think so, although I have had some very happy moments when I've felt like life is all on track!
3. Would you ever refer to something as ‘bitter sweet’? Sure, why not.
4. Is there a person in this world you don’t think you could ever figure out? Most politicians, what the fuck is up with most of them?
5. When was the last time you were freaked out? This morning trying to drive. Hmpf!
6. Do you learn from ‘every’ mistake you make? Hell no, which is sometimes a big problem.
7. Do you sometimes think that you’re too nice? Ummm...not really...I suppose I canbe talked into doing a favour for someone way too easily, but most people I know are reasonable thankfully!
8.Is there something you’re dying to tell someone? Hmmm, not that I can think of?
9. Do you think you have a unique name? Well, I haven't really met that many Monicas, in fact the whole time I was in school I'd only ever heard of one! Before that there was Monica Lewinsky, which was no fun. Interestingly enough including me, Mrs S knows three Monicas, LOL. Seems its a more popular name in South America.
10. Do you usually try to find the good in people? Indeed! Except for Donald Trump...in all seriousness, I'm having trouble thinking of one good thing about him. I suppose he loves his family, but apart from that.
11. Do you look back on embarrassing moments and laugh about them? Hmmm...maybe? Nothing comes immediately to mind - oh wait, maybe the time at the swimming carnival when I swam under the lane ropes and was so slow I held up the whole school carnival for five minutes!
12. Have you ever laughed just to save yourself from humiliation? I'm quite sure I have.
13. What are you doing in 2 hours? Sleeping!
14.What is the last thing you ate? Some cheese, what else is new. :OP
15 Do you love your job? I do! Mrs S is cool and my other jobs are at the library! Hugs all the books!
16. When is the last time you showered? This morning
17. Who is the last person you texted? The Australia's Got Talent voting thing.
18. When is the last time you were in a hospital? As a visitor? Last year. As a patient when I was a very small baby.
19. The last time you went out to eat, what did you order? Pizza!
20. Do you tend to have a lot of those moments where you forget something that you wanted to say? Yes, yes I do.
21. How long have you known the last person you text messaged? Well, I won't count the Australia's Got Talent hotline. The person before...My mother? All my life :OP
22. Will this week be a good one? I'm sure it will!
23. Anything happen to you within the past month that made you really happy? I got to move into my new place, it was a lot of hard work, but I'm loving it and the dishwasher I bought to go along with it! :OD
24. Do you prefer to take showers at night or in the morning? In the morning, having showers at night feels weird to me.
25. Have you been to New York City? Alas no...I want to though!
