I will now resume blogging

Seriously I am still in school. It's June and I am STILL in school. We get out on Thursday (teacher workday Friday). And then I will get this silly blog caught up.

But while I am here lets talk about tile.

Here's what I know. Tile makers are mathematically challenged and picking out tile makes my stomach hurt.

O.K. so the first tile I picked out matches the faux finish on the walls in the kitchen. Not cool. So I get some other tile, which also looks like the walls. Finally I find the perfect tile.




But here's the rub. I was going to do a pattern that needs 6x6, 12x12 and 18x18. This tile comes in 6.5x6.5, 13x13 (so far so good) and 19x19 (what!). O.K. so the pattern thing is NOT going to work. So we are going to do the tile (19x19) diagonal through the kitchen and everywhere else that is kitchen related (laundry room, pantry, hallway).
Stupid tile.
