Self Portrait Sunday

Sunday, June 15th, 2008

I snapped this self portrait last night. It’s been a while since I’ve remembered to participate in Cass’s Self Portrait Sunday meme.
But I’ve been helping the friend whose visiting dye her hair, and we had some bleach left over so I told her to bleach mine with it and I would try out some of [...]

Upgrade or Replace?

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

There’s been times lately that I’ve been wondering if it might not just be better to replace my old laptop than keep fixing it. The other day I said that if it screwed up again that I would just cannibalize it for parts and build a new machine. Now it’s turning off every two seconds [...]

St. Augustine

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Yesterday we went up to St. Augustine in the afternoon. The idea was to go on a ghost tour but it was so hot up there, that we spent most of the time trying to find somewhere to hang out that had air conditioning, and I was remembering why it sucked so much to not [...]

Home is Where the Heart is

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Which means where the family is. I do love my family, I really do, but some times I wish my son and feline would be less rough on the curtains. We have a nest of tables which sits between our shoe rack and a DVD cabinet, they’re supposed to keep the munchkin from going back [...]

Vacation Time

Friday, June 13th, 2008

It’s always good to have a bit of a vacation. We don’t have enough time to spare to go up to a Hilton Head rental but we’re going to spend a day ghost hunting in St. Augustine and having fun up there sampling foods and taking in the sites.
It’s a nice drive up that way, [...]

Me, Myself and I

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

I’ve been having trouble finding things to write about on here lately, as you may have noticed. There are some things going on in my life and I’ve found that I’ve been reluctant to talk about them or write them down here, and that’s made it difficult.
My forays in therapy and my disability application have [...]

Interesting Times

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

I had a nice day yesterday, I visited with friends, and got to practice some of the hypnosis that I haven’t been doing much of in a while, and just spend some time chilling and discussing things of a more esoteric nature. I was in a good spot, and it’s interesting how something that’s good [...]

Notes to Self

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

Paint Thinner and Paint Stripper are not the same thing. These are things to remember when you’re trying to clean off stairs so that you can stain them a different color, it’s best to know the difference. It’s the difference between getting two stairs done in four hours or eleven.
Ah, well, now we know, so [...]

House work

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

We’ve been doing some work around the house, actually a friend who’s in need of a bit of bonus catch has been helping us do some home and yard improvements.
His next project is to sand and stain the stairs. I’m not sure what color to go with. We have a lot of different woods in [...]

I Crack Myself Up Sometimes

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

And…I probably shouldn’t. Yeah I see this link to Parmigiani watches and I immediately think that it must be watches made of cheese. They’re not, of course, but my brain works in weird and wonderful? ways, and that’s what it comes up with.
They’re actually really nice looking Swiss watches, and there goes my brain with [...]
