These last couple months have been relaxing, hectic & a tad costly for me ( Read more... )

Just got word on my hard drive... NOTHING was able to be saved!!! I had over 75 reference books (photos, text, etc.), about 3 1/2 years of photos (only a small % is on FlickR), all my web addresses (for SCA projects), a gazillion photos of project ideas, All photos of my past works (not yet posted on my web site). My SCA resume (covering past 9+ ( Read more... )

Friday the TV was delivered. Or I should say the mini movie screen. It is a 50" LCD and "just" fits on the old TV stand (over 10 years old). Now, instead of just watching a movie, it is more like watching a mini movie screen. I would love to drill holes in the concrete and mount it on the wall above the fireplace (we do not use the fireplace, ( Read more... )

I've lived what I consider to be a normal life. High school crushes, living on my own, marriage, having children, trying to raise them properly. I love to read, listen to music, go shopping. Everything other people do. And I would always find time to dream. Dream of how things would be, could be ( Read more... )

Last Thursday, in my Klutsy post, I commented on my trip down the stairs. Well, the doctor said that I “might have” blacked out a few seconds, as I remember starting to step down, then being on the floor; nothing of the actual fall. This was due to missing my meds for a couple days and then restarting them. Not to mention high blood sugar (160 ( Read more... )

There are two concrete steps going from the kitchen into the garage; today I managed to slip down both of them and land on the concret floor, on all fours. Thank goodness I did not land on my butt, or I would have worse back problems than I do now. I somehow fell forward and landed on my knees and hands (how, I do not know ( Read more... )

Josephus mowed 90% of the back yard, but when he was mowing the "flat" flower bed, he hit the concrete edging and R-E-A-L-L-Y tweaked the mower blade --- now it looks like a candy cane. Guess now, instead of just getting it sharpened, we will need to buy a whole new blade (and just when I get all bills caught up and planned on having extra cash ( Read more... )
