Overall, it went ok, I did get sick over Christmas. I feel better, but still not quite at 100%.

Charlies Computer is Fixed

Finally, got Charlies computer working. This post is being done from his computer. I had him bring up his computer from his room. I dusted out the computer and reset his wireless card. I still think the days are numbered for his computer. The fan for his power supply is not running. Plus he still has to move his computer from the kitchen table back to his room.

Dryer Ball


I gave Ashley my dryer balls. Maybe she can give me some feedback on how they are working out.

Crocheted Flower


As an impulse project, I did a couple of crocheted flowers. I have three flowers connected together by crocheting the outer edges together.

Charlies Computer

We did do a reformat on Charlies computer. We first had to work on the issue of getting his wireless card working, we could not get it to work, once we got the driver to work, his computer keeps rebooting, which is where we are at right now. So now I am doing Google searches to figure out the problem.

Advent Calendar


Here is another photo from the Christmas app.

CRC Photo


I would have to say that going through the Combat Readiness Course had to be the hardest thing I have done. The hardest part had to be going through four days of combat scenarios with little to no sleep.

Baking and Shopping

Today is my son Charlie's Birthday. We signed up to do fellowship at the Methodist church we belong. For the second year is a row we chose the weekend of his birthday to do fellowship. So far I made Oreo balls and chocolate chip cookies. I still have to put together a meat and cheese tray, and a fruit try. I also made Charlie's cake. Once all the baking was done, I only had an hour left to go shopping at a craft bazzar. Not only did I find great stuff for Christmas presents, it gave me a few ideas on what I could make as well.

My amazing husband

David wanted me to blog how great he is. Words can not describe how I feel about him. Just thinking about not having in my life would make me cry.

Computer Update

Installed Spybot on the computer helped the problem with my user and stopped System Tools 2011 from running on my user profile. I can use my profile now, however I think there are still issues with the computer. I still will get the the internet browsers to pop up and today I got an e-mail from David's Hotmail account. I know he did not send it.

I may have to consider re-formating, a little drastic, but it is the only way I know how to fix the problem.

Computer Problems

Yesterday the computer got infected with a virus. My user profile got hit with System Tools 2011, which made my profile useless. I added a new user and loaded Spybot to hopefully remove malware or at least keep new problems from showing up.

Old House Pics


Finally our kitchen is done! While getting the kitchen back in order, we found some old pics of the house. The black and white photo was among paperwork from a nursery. The date on this paper work was from 1978. I originally thought the house was built in the 1980's. So I guess this dates the house back to late 1970's.

Kitchen Counters Are In

I am excited about the fact that we now have kitchen counters. I will hope to soon have pics of the new kitchen, which will be done tomorrow once the plumber finishes up:)

We are selling the Vibe, I have a felling a new couch is in the works. I am reluctant to buy a new couch as long as we have three cats with claws ready to get there claws on the couch.

Bedroom Haunted?

David has experienced movement in the bed on many times. One night he felt someone tap him on the shoulder. He woke me to ask if it was me. It wasn't me, I was facing the wrong way to even be able to tap him on the shoulder. I think I experience slight movement in the bed once, but not as often as David.

Shopping

Did some shopping today. Was at Shopko for my first store. I started to look at jeans. I discovered that the jeans were not going to fit, or I did not like how it looked, or I did not like the price. Of course, I did make my way out of the petite section and found the plus sizes. I did find jeans the right size and price. Next it is over to Hobby Lobby. I bought yarn mainly out of the clearance section. I did browse through other sections of the store. I finally made it over to Panera bread. I initially order a tomato and mozzarella sandwich, they screwed up because the out of the pre made sandwich and it was going to take some time to made another one. I got a different sandwich, and will get a free pastry out of this. Well, it is time to wrap this up and get ready for work.

Trying to win the latest HGTV home giveaway. A luxury apartment in New York. IF if turns out that we, by the grace of God, win this apartment, it is going to be on the small side. It is only 900 square feet with only one bedroom. Oh well, I won't complain if we win, It also comes with a car.

Here are some older pics that I scanned.





Hope my battery doesn't die

Using the iTouch to make a blog entry, battery life on it has been not as long on it as it use to be. I really like this device and I hate when I have to charge it often.

Back from trip

We are back from our trip from Meskwaki, it turned out that we did well on our gambling. We ended up a couple hundred dollars ahead.
Here is a pic of new kitten Gambit and a pic of Jeff's birthday cake.


At our destination

We made it to our destination, David's family arrived at about the same. It was still to early to check into the hotel, so we had lunch first. Soon we will go and gamble our hard earned money in hopes of making some money.

Road Trip

Soon we will be heading out on a road trip to Mesquaki. I was looking for my players club card and realized that I could not find it. Not a big deal, I could get another on there if I could not find mine in the morning.

Blog Career?

Sunday, Aug 14, 2010
I have two blogs that center around my blogging about my knitting and crochet projects. Mainly they are an avenue to post my patterns. I had hoped for some revenue with the Google Ads. There is not anything to show because of minimal traffic. This blog was to write about any other topic. I was writing on foreign travel, then I was focusing on food, then I would just write about anything.
I think my first step about my potential blog career is to just get in the habit of blogging.

As a side note. I included a date at the beginning of of my blog is because I am using my iTouch to blog and again the date is wrong. It is a day behind.
What do I want to do now? I thought it would cool to make money being a blogger.

The problem. I would would have to blog.

Test blog

I am writing this blog nowhere near an internet connection, so this is a test so see if this will post once the iTouch can connect to the Internet.

Farmer's Market + Bad Weather

= poor sales. Considering that it was really cold today, I still made a few sales.

Saturday, May 01, 2010

I am happy with the results from the farmer's market today. I made $33.25 in sales. This might might not sound like a lot, but at least this month's and some of next months table fee's are now paid for.

More details on the market are on my Sock Blog.

Farmer's Market

With the first farmer's market only days away, I am a little nervous. I don't feel that prepared, but I do have a bunch of stuff made. It is going to be hard being ready to set up at 7am, considering that I go to bed at 2am. I am going to very tired.

Sitting in front of Apple Store

So now I am sitting in front of the Apple Store at the mall. I had to deposit David's check, so it meant running Madison sooner than anticipated. I got more hours at work. This unfortunately means working a few hours over the weekend.

Farmer's Market

Starting May 1st, there is going to be a farmer's market in town every Saturday thru Oct (I think). I could rent a table for $4.00 and try to sell some handmade items. I think I will go for it.

What I Did Today

Today I went to church ( sang in choir), got groceries, worked on a sock, made meatloaf ( turned out yummy), went to sing in an Easter Cantata, and watching Wrestlemania with family. David invited a guest to watch wrestling with us. This meant last minute house cleaning and shopping. I was a little concerned that I might of missed the Cantata.

Saturday errands

Went to the bank today to deposit David's check, took Jeff to Wal-Mart to cash his check, made some chocolate chip cookies, went to mass, did some laundry, and worked a sock.

Coffee shop blog

Today I was suppose to leave early enough to enjoy ice cream before work. I left a little later that I wanted, but I should of still had enough time to enjoy ice cream. However with rush hour traffic and taking a not-so-short cut, I only had time to enjoy a coffee in the building where I work. At least my next coffee is free.

Full Version

I am going to have to get the full version of the iTouch app for blog writing. With the full version, I could post pictures with the post. After I got off work yesterday, I stayed up to watch TV instead of going to bed. Now I am really tired. Work is going to suck.
