Success!

Ceiling Fans Purchased: 2
Injuries: 1, so far. (Hurt my thumb on a search for the screw driver.)
Circuit Breakers Tripped: 1, but it got tripped three times.
Ceiling Fans Installed: 2
Missing Charm Bracelets Found: 1

So, we finally ... after piecing together one complete ceiling fan from the parts of two boxes and bringing the rest back to get a repacement ... have ceiling fans installed in my office and in the guest room. Once we got the one in my office done .. which went pretty easily really .. we went to dinner with his folks, then came back to put the other one up. and that went fine, once we rigged a washer because the screw head was too small, and tripped the breaker three times. And the washer search turned out to be a good thing, because I found the charm bracelet I've been missing since we went to NYC. In 2006. It's been missing a year and a half. I was -convinced- I'd left it somewhere. But it appeared in a cigar box that's been sitting on my desk forever.

So, today was, all in all, a success. Tomorrow I hope to get the curtain rods upstairs put up, and the curtains hung. Once that's done, I think all will be well. In about a month I should get my new desk. They're going to come and put it together and everything which is a wonderful thing for me ... so long as I'm not working when they try to come by. We all know how my luck is with that sort of thing.

And now, I think it's time to get some sleep. Somehow I ended up with extra hours tomorrow, for some project I barely understand, but I guess I'll figure it out. Not like the store doesn't always help me, anyway. But I don't wanna be there all day.
