Why, Why, Whine

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Driving in the GTA!!



Why do some drivers tailgate? Do they not realize that something that weighs about 4000Lbs and going 60km/h needs some room to stop? Especially after it rains or snows!



Why do some drivers race to the front when there is a lane closure? Are they more important than the rest of us? You know, us nice people who made the lane change early have places to be too!!



Why do some drivers speed no matter what? Sure we've all done 10 over on occasion (okay maybe on more than one occasion). But if you want to do 100km or over go on the highway. Stay out of residential/school zones with your speed racer. By the way - your morning commute is not a race. Most of the rest of us on the road are just trying to get to work in one piece.



Why, why, why do SO MANY people brake at green lights? Sure scan the intersection. I'm sure you can do this without coming to a stop. If you are doing this because you are lost - pull over and check your map or ask someone. Just get out of the way.



Why do some drivers come to a full and complete stop at a red light, only to decide that there is no cross traffic so they're gonna go through anyway. The light is red for a reason. If the intersection was meant to be used that way there would be stop signs instead of lights. But then again these kinds of drivers probably don't stop at those...they're there for everyone else, right???



That's all the Why, Why, Whining for today.

So Far...

We painted the computer room. Much better!! We are still waiting on the bedroom paint. I want to get it done - yesterday!!!

Here are the pics ...The computer room before

And after...



I'm really liking it. Much cleaner and brighter. Happy, not dungeon-like.

Some art/posters I'm waiting to put up. I am happy that the Monroe poster (custom framed by my dad!!) matches so well with the computer room paint.



Bee heard that I was posting some pics on the blog so she just had to get in there for a shot!





I can't wait to get rid of the dark green....

Finally...

We finally have the paint to start the computer room and primer for the bedroom. I am so happy I won't have to be in a yucky green room anymore. I painted the computer room trim yesterday, and am feeling a bit sore. (I helped a friend with yard work on Saturday - all the lifting started the soreness). But I can't stop now...I wonder if I'm gonna drive my fiance nuts?!! Because I want everything done yesterday...lol.

Before and after pics to follow.
