When I got up this morning I let the puppy dog out for his business then made coffee. From almost the moment his paws came back in the house the skies opened up and we got about a half an inch of rain. That was a close call since Mr. B. and wet weather do [...]
Looks like we dodged the bullet again. The strong thunderstorms the weather people said to watch out for never got this far. We got some well needed rain and little disco lightening but that was it. And we were supposed to get some more this morning but so far only fog which seems strange for [...]
Hey notice anything different?
I ventured into new territory-CSS style sheet land. I changed a few little things like the background, and widened the border, but don’t you think they make a nice difference? It only took me two days to figure it out. I only lost the background about three times, lost my banner, experienced [...]
Talk about being sucked into a tornado. When I got to work yesterday I had the grand illusion that I was going to get task A, B, and C done. I was going to attend meetings 1 and 2 then happily leave on time feeling satisfied that I had a productive day. I was under [...]
I’ve noticed something rather pleasant and surprising. Last month I decided to turn off the dry cycle on my dishwasher. This is because I wash a lot of plastic cups and containers. Inevitably during every wash, one would commit suicide by falling on the heating coil. That made the house smell lovely. But since I [...]
Happy Earth Day. There, I said it -I’m politically correct, and now sound like an upstanding citizen that is doing all she can to take care of the planet. Do I sound a little jaded? Maybe. Don’t get me wrong. I love our planet. After all it’s a pretty neat place to live considering that [...]
Wow if you haven’t heard, major archeological news is a foot! The tomb of Marc Anthony and Cleopatra might have been discovered. And this is hot off the press because they start digging next week. Let’s cross our fingers this is the real deal. How awesome would that be? And for what it’s worth I [...]
Not much to report this weekend. It was very quiet. I basically camped out on the couch with Mr. B.
I worked on the computer for most of it, catching up on work emails, writing up a 3 page back story outline for a story I’m working on, and enjoying the nice northerly breeze we got [...]
Today is going to be quiet day in front of the computer. Mr. B. is under the weather-had to take him to the puppy hospital last night because he was breathing heavy when I got home from work. He’ll probably have to go for tests but he got a pain shot and an anti-inflammatory. So [...]
I’m trying every way possible to save money by pinching pennies where I can. But one expense has me scratching my head. It’s cable. My bill really jumped last month. Even though I know I can call the cable company and reduce some expenses, like discontinuing the premium channels it doesn’t seem like it will [...]
