I am guessing you are using loose tiles, not the ones that come in sheets with the mesh backer? I would google and see if you can find a way to make it work. You might be able find a pattern that might work. If not, I would take back the tile and choose something else.

I was using the sheet tile and the pattern was arabesque.  They were so unevenly spaced on the sheet, we gave up and chose a different pattern.  We are trying again today.  We have made a template of the wall and have laid the pieces together.  Now comes the cutting.  Cross your fingers.  We have been married for 45 years and hope this together project does not put us over the edge😄.

Getting ready to watch Survivor and then Domino Masters. If you haven't seen Domino Masters on Fox, you're missing some cool domino runs. These teams create awesome topples that are fun to watch 😊

Cleaning up from our big kitchen project of tiling.  I said I would post a finished picture.  Boy was this a job.  We had painted the kitchen cabinets and got new countertops.  It was hard enough picking a tile because the counter tops seemed so busy in color.  We have been here 32 years and definitely needed a redo.

@Mee, your new backsplash looks wonderful, very spiffy! DIY-ing projects can save money and be gratifying... except when they become expensive and super aggravating. My partner and I are currently debating whether to hire someone to bury our gutter/sump pump drainage pipe (her vote), or whether I'm going to spend a weekend in the back yard wielding gravel and a shovel (my vote). Secretly, I hope she wins the argument. Anyway, congrats on powering through your troubles and getting a beautiful end result. Hopefully you'll feel a glow of pride every time you use your kitchen.

@Mee, when my husband and I married he had his own business.

After doing tile, I admire anyone that does it.  I am one that likes to get in there and make it look new fast.  We were torn up for over a week.  I am thankful my husband will try anything (he is too cheap to pay anyone).

Waiting for the big announcement....oh...um...waiting for the 2 big announcements...

1. The birth of Baby Boo 2

2. The Aussie election

Both are going to be any day now....I dunno if my nails will survive it.

 

Can't offer up any information on the elections down under.

 

As for the other big announcement...Mister Jackson has not made his big debut yet.  We are in the the 39th week.  The boy is at full-term.  If Jackson does not make his grand entrance by this time next week, the good doctor has said she will consider inducing labor.

 

So, to answer the question "what are you doing right now?"  Pacing....lots of pacing.

@Boo Jackson will be right on time when he arrives.  I missed that with my kids as both of them were scheduled C sections due to the then Mrs. yoda being unable to survive labor.  I'm nervous and excited for you.  Sending some positive vibes out to you and Mrs. Boo, or Sugar Britches I believe is what you refer to her as.  I was blathering something over on my thread about living a rad life but I believe you are doing the radest thing ever.  Best wishes Papa Boo.

Thanks.  Oddly enough, Sugar Britches is calmer than I am right now.  And she's the one doing all the heavy lifting.

 

Shout out to my mom and dad and for that matter, all parents everywhere.  Pregnancy and childbirth is the most intensely emotional thing I've ever experienced.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
