I’ve never really been one for perfumes or make-up. Even when I was working full time I never made myself up. In fact I think until the last few rounds of job interviews I had I hadn’t worn make-up since I got married, unless you count Gothing Up for Halloween.
I’ve tended towards men’s fragrances, not [...]

I realize I still need to schedule an appointment for Gemma to go into one of the car lifts at our local mechanic’s shop and get an oil change; and my husband’s car needs a look-over as well.
Despite that we’ve been working on things we can’t fix. I started white-washing the front of the house [...]

I’m still without a working computer of my own; but there are some good things going on in the mean time. We found a local person who is willing to assess the computer’s problems for a lot less than I had anticipated given Gateway’s assessment fee was over $100; and other places it’s usually at [...]

My computer is currently kaput. I at least had some warning, and am only going to lose a couple of files if I have to nuke and pave; but it’s dead at the moment.
I knew it had a virus and my friend was supposed to be bringing me a program to fix it today; but [...]

I’ve been going on and on for quite some time about how I need to diet and then not sticking with it. This past weekend Kore and I were invited, along with the munchkin, to a barbecue held by a friend of ours, as we were in Wal-Mart picking up the food and things I [...]

I actually remembered to take a picture for Self Portrait Sunday this week. I know I don’t look so happy…I was having a hard time lining things up in the Instinct to take the picture.
However, I am happy. The collar I’m sporting is actually part of my Valentine’s present. Hubbie got me the collar, and [...]

More and more lately I wish we could just get a place of business instead of having to do things every which way, online, over the phone, via mail. It makes things very clunky and complicated, some days I feel it more than others.
Even though we don’t have a place yet that doesn’t mean I’m [...]

Just wanted to mention in case I haven’t. I can never remember, and I don’t see it in recent posts, only on the twitter, that we’re doing a reading special at the tarot site right now. The romance readings are $5 off a piece, and the candles are still on sale. Both of these things [...]

I find myself in a semi-romantic mood recently given the time of year. It’s an anniversary for us as I’ve said in other posts, and I was at the grocery store today stocking up and there’s, of course, things every where promoting Valentine’s Day. One of the main suggestions our grocery store has is to [...]
