Happy New Year

Monday, December 31st, 2007

I’m in bed while this posts, because the cold and my health mean that I’m not going to be staying up to see in the new year itself. I am wishing everyone the best for the year of 2008.
We’ve taken our licks in this past year, but we’re starting the new year on a positive [...]

Self Portrait Sunday

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

I actually took a picture to post last week for Self Portrait Sunday but didn’t get chance to do so because I got wrapped up in other things which are still going on at the house trying to get everything unpacked and found a place.
This one I took this morning:
If you’re wondering what distracted me [...]

Turning House into Home

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

Right now I’m working on recopying the “Spread the Word” list directory into the post from my site. I was trying to do an update on the list this morning because it’s been several months since I checked on it, and the entire content of my post wound up disappearing instead. I’m not sure what [...]

If he makes it to five…

Thursday, December 27th, 2007

…it’ll be a miracle.
Those were the words my hubbie just told me when I called him up to ask him to get band-aids on the way back from the doctor.
I was trying to cook breakfast this morning and the munchkin kept breaking into the new pantry and bringing me food items to indicate his gross [...]

Fun Times in the New House Tonight

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

Television…we’ve survived without it for almost three years now, already it’s causing us tons of problems. Wondrous thing that it is.
Apparently our cable install guy was a lazy putz. He activated the internet, which is nice, but he didn’t actually hook up the cable. I told him when he came in that we wanted the [...]

Wow…thanks phone company :p

Monday, December 24th, 2007

I’m triply glad now that we wound up having to get internet from the cable company because the phone was supposed to be activated at 10 a.m. I was up at the butt crack of dawn this morning getting ready to hare down two cities over to return toilet seats to Home Depot, pick some [...]

New Year

Monday, December 24th, 2007

I seem to make the same general resolutions ever year, to stick to my diet, to start exercising, to budget, things like that.
Last year I tried hoodia for a while. My problem with things like this is that I start out strong taking things when I’m supposed to, doing my exercise but then something will [...]

Crazy Busy

Monday, December 24th, 2007

I think our things which have been left at the old apartment are multiplying while we’re not there. I swear it looked as though there wasn’t that much stuff. My husband even told me there wasn’t that much stuff…yet despite being there a few hours yesterday we only got the munchkin’s room and the main [...]

We’re In (and up!)

Saturday, December 22nd, 2007

We were told the cable company would be here between 4 and 7 p.m. to hook up the internet, so I figured that meant we would be waiting at almost 8 p.m. wondering where the heck he was, but he got here just before 5 p.m!
He was really thorough and even left me a USB [...]

Blessed Yule

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Okay, my last post before we disconnect everything!
I’m going to be gone for Yule, Solstice, which is tomorrow, and I doubt I’ll be back on the blog until after the more traditional secular holiday which my husband, his family and my Mum celebrate, Christmas on the 25th. So, I hope that everyone has a safe [...]
