We had a lovely Halloween at home, handing out candy to kids! We put out decorations and had PILES of goodies to share -- plus more food than ever before on Halloween (!!!). Sister Sue came over (back from her cribbage tournament). And we watched spooky movies on TV ( Read more... )

Here are some 'last chance' Halloween icons for 2010! (I guess better late than never...) How about a couple dozen?

These are for all of my LiveJournal friends, as well for the members of seasonal_icons.

Samples:

Before I forget (!!!), Firefox users should be upgrading to the latest version Firefox 3.6.12 (it seems as if the changes are security-related, so don't delay in the upgrade).

Marilyn and I have been watching some classic movies on TCM recently (including today). We just saw (the original) "13 Ghosts," "Homicidal" and "Mr. Sardonicus" (gotta love ( Read more... )

We hauled our piles of food to work this morning -- AFTER Marilyn spent ages making the deviled eggs (!!!). They're a lot of work, no doubt about it. I had a heck of a time getting them peeled when we got up. She got a great scald on them (as we always say), and they were delicious! I just had another. Yummy ( Read more... )

I did more garbage and recycling (forever -- in and out to the curb -- or so it seemed). It was finally DONE past midnight. (sigh) By then it was pouring rain. But as that was always a joke between my Dad and me, I didn't really mind ( Read more... )

Feeling like crap? Yeah. (This is TMI, but I've even had the runs today... sigh...) Like crap, get it? (heh)

So I had to make the 'new' sick icon. I call it: sick - NOT in bed. (smile) I'm so often not down in bed when I'm sick that I decided I needed it ( Read more... )

Yeah, I spent most of the day sick in bed. I'm trying NOT to get really bad before Thursday and our annual Board Meeting (the big one of the year), or Friday and our Halloween potluck with the Staff ( Read more... )

So, Rich called me Friday to tell me he'd messed up his 'new' laptop (the one Mark gave him). I was dismayed, but told him I'd give it a try and see if I could fix it. To be totally honest, I didn't think I could do it -- I thought I'd have to have Kris look at it ( Read more... )

First off, my entry from yesterday (which is HERE) didn't post right (???). I come here to post and I'm looking at my Calendar and it looks like there's no entry at all. So then I go to my Journal view, and I see it there -- but I realize it's locked as a Private post ( Read more... )

It's been CREEPY around here, with Marilyn at the office and the STORM raging on and off all day long! It seems even worse now that it's dark and stormy (!!!), with the lights flickering constantly. Please. I do NOT want to lose electricity!!!

And I've made it worse, watching back-to-back episodes of Ghost Adventures (on the Travel Channel). The ( Read more... )
