New Laptop

Monday, November 30th, 2009

I’ve been talking several times in the past few weeks and months about us getting a new laptop, and over the Thanksgiving weekend we were actually able to do that, thanks to an amazing deal from Office Depot.
I’d been browsing around deals several places. A friend recommended to me that Best Buy had a Sony [...]

Hard Time

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

I’ve been having a hard time lately with keeping up with things because I’ve not been sleeping and have had little energy to do things during the day. Dishes sitting in the sink and me on the couch half asleep. It frustrates me because I do have the sleeping pills now, but for some reason [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

I’ll write something of more substance later, but I hope that everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving today is having a good one, and spending time with family and friends that they are truly thankful for.
I’m thankful for babysitting! Because I have to be at work soon and most of my relatives are out of the area, [...]

NaNoWriMo Tips

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

I’ve been trying to work on NaNoWriMo for the past month. However, I haven’t been keeping up with things the way I was able to last year. If I want to win this year I need to write 5300 words per day. I doubt I’m going to manage that so I’m going to attempt to [...]

Lawyer Time

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Today I had a meeting with a lawyer who specializes in disability cases. I was very nervous about going, especially as I was going by myself, hubbie stayed home to watch the munchkin, and I didn’t think until rather too late that there were a few people I could have asked to watch the munchkin, [...]

Disability Frustrations

Friday, November 20th, 2009

I finally got a letter from disability yesterday, as soon as Kore picked it up at the mailbox I knew that it was bad news. There didn’t seem to be enough in there for there to be anything different, and I was right. They’ve denied my claim. I shouldn’t be surprised by this because I [...]

Gift Shopping

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

While we were at Target I was also looking around to get ideas for Yule presents. I have several good ideas for the munchkin now based on toys that he kept stopping to play with. He has a yin for all things Transformers right now, and Target also has a lot of Thomas the Tank [...]

Trekkie

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

I can’t really say I used to be a hardcore Trekkie because I don’t think it really ever went away it was just muted due to lack of funding and lack of decent Trek things going on.
When we were in England I had a wall screen poster that looked like the layout of the Enterprise-D [...]

Exorcism Used in Therapeautic Practices

Friday, November 13th, 2009

I finally found where my archive of http://ceruleanechoes.com/ & http://miriel.org/ was, two sites I no longer maintain because I was being spread to thin. However they have a lot of information on things that I’d like to talk about again, the first I found was this one.
From February 2008:
My SO pointed me to this article [...]

Kismet

Friday, November 13th, 2009

It’s funny the things you randomly come across some times. Kore and I were just talking the other day about things we would do with lottery money and one of the things she’d mentioned was getting property up in the Outer Banks where she goes each year for a vacation with her sister and her [...]
