Does she know that you were going to cut a giant hole in the wall?
What did you do today?

She has no idea. I have been leading her on that I have been checking out now homebrews and doing some drinking. Hopefully I can finish everything by tomorrow night when she gets home.
Its reminding me of that show "While You Were Out" only it seems its a one man crew. I hope your wife appreciates your effort. That is an awesome surprise!
The past couple of days I have felt a bit dizzy and haven't done much. I didn't even eat at all yesterday. I need to fix my sleep schedule.
I really need to .... get a brain.. I forgot what I was saying.. LOL.
She doesn't know you're adding doors?

Nope! I added the doors, painted, tiled and put all new cabinets in the laundry room and am in the process of laying tile in the master bath, hopefully to be done this afternoon. I still have to sand, texture and paint the wall I removed and lay and grout the master bath. The laundry is done.

Put the table back. I need to find a home for my slot machine or a bigger house.
We made it to Carlsbad Caverns today, and I walked the entire mile down into the hole. We then came back later to watch the bats fly out of the hole. It was awesome. What is not awesome is while I was trying this, my G/F watched a small bark scorpion crawl under the bedspread. Not it is almost 9 PM, and she refuses to stay at this POS Rodeway Inn hotel. I might be driving another 5 hours and look for a better hotel!
I just caught it. How many more are there?

I'd sleep in my car.
Chris, Wow! That is fantastic! I love the laundry cabinets and the tile! Please tell us how your wife responded. Awesome slot machine too.
havasu, man... I'm cool with spiders and most other bugs, but scorpions... No. I hope you got your money back on that hotel room. That is probably a major health code violation (or whatever oversees hotels) of some sort and that place should probably be reported.
Today I got my mother to actually leave the house for a few minutes. Its the first time in weeks. She played her favorite app on her new S3 while I drove. I normally drive a Honda CRV but she's uncomfortable in that so I was driving her in the Ford Expedition, which is harder to turn but has more power and is more comfortable to sit in. She made me take her to Sonic where they once again messed up her order. I've pretty much stopped going there unless she demands it because they ALWAYS mess the order up. I could go into a long rant about that, but I'll spare you. LOL.
I'm thinking of making up a schedule for myself to try to make myself do specific things on specific days- maybe at specific times-- to try to get stuff done.
It may be too late to contact the timber company about the tree that fell on the barn-- Did I ever post the pictures of that?
I need to hire someone to cut down some trees. I don't have the strength/coordination to handle a chainsaw and the hand saw my mother got me is a joke. She seriously expected me to cut up oak with a flimsy hand saw. She's all, "oh, but it won't be that hard".
/facepalm
She has never held a power tool as far as I know and she has never cut wood and she has absolutely no idea how hard it is to cut oak without power tools. Even with a chainsaw, oak can be tough.
And here I am at 3 in the morning on the computer again. lol. So much for that sleep schedule.

Over ate at lunch today now I feel crappy.

Making more beer today. Thinking of starting up my own BBQ and brewery.
I too felt crappy. I visited a friend on Sunday and Monday I was just exhausted. I got up and gave my dog her meds, fed the cats, cleaned the waterer in the kitchen and refilled it, then went back to bed. Later my cats were attacking me to tell me they wanted more food so I got up and promptly lost my balance and fell against the wall. I staggered over to the food container and filled the bowls, then staggered back and fell onto the bed and curled up to sleep again. My mother called me at close to 9pm to ask me if I was going to give the dog her second dose of meds but I was feeling woozy and asked her to do it for me.
I'm not staggering around when I get up now, but I'm still feeling a bit out of it and exhausted.

I'm also staggering right now, but it was because we sat outside and watched the far away lightening for hours, while listening to music, and partaking in some Texas built vodka drinks!
