1. Sleep in until 10:30. Which is really only 9:30. But still, that’s pretty late. Except it was totally not my fault because Blaine is painting our bedroom so he unplugged the one clock that we have and when I woke up this morning I knew thanks to daylight savings time that the brightness of [...]
I just typed a very long, fascinating journal entry to share with you all. It was witty. It was entertaining. It was profound. Maya Angelou, step aside.
It was actually about how grumpy I get when I don’t have enough sleep. Which is exactly the situation this morning. For very elaborate reasons that I was going [...]
Things I was grateful for today, in no particular order:
1. A tankless hot water heater system, so even after three other people in my family took showers this morning, there was still plenty of nice, hot water for me.
2. Plumbers who know what they are doing.
3. Drive through mail drops, especially on days its really [...]
Things *were* looking up … my laptop had been repaired and returned to me, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover Adobe gives you TWO installs per software program, so I was able to reinstall my PSE7 and begin editing Santa photos. Never mind they were promised to people last week and I’ll be late [...]
In the span of the past ten days, I’ve had the following people in my house:
Cable guy to check my computer connection.
Tech Dude to pick up my computer.
Different Tech Dude to return my computer.
Contractor, and any one (or more) of the six or seven guys (framers, painters, electricians, texture, etc) that have shown up at [...]
The good news: Defective processors are apparently not a common problem in computers.
The bad news: That is what the diagnostic test at Best Buy determined was wrong with my computer.
The good news: For ONCE in my life, I had the sense God gave a goose and purchased the extended warranty, which means the defective processor will [...]
Kellen has a good friend staying a week with us while his parents are on vacation. Late this afternoon, the two of them walked down the street to another classmate’s house to see if he’d like to come back over to our house and hang out. (I’d say “play”, which is what they would have [...]
1. Big changes coming. Thanks to people willing to help (shout out to Scott in Utah!) and the beauty of independent web design ……
2. Honest mistake on the credit card. I had put the wrong card in the ATM machine and when I entered the {wrong} pin number, it flagged my account as suspicious. [...]
1. I made it as far as step ONE in fixing my blog before running into a glitch and having to ask for more help.
2. My credit card was declined at the grocery store today.
3. The contractor cashed our $1000.00 deposit check and then never showed up to work today, nor did [...]
Really, Julie Andrews is pretty much the antidote for anything, isn’t she? This might be old news to some of you, but Blaine and I just discovered it and have watched it at least ten times today. I don’t care if you’re feeling a little blue, you can’t help but watch this and [...]
