I feel I should say a word or eighty (for posterity)concerning my Christmas decor. I have decorated 3 trees with Potter ornaments. When I take the trees down, I'll do an exact count for my records. I've gone the artificial route for trees, as I finally got tired of the expense of real trees, and I am finally too lazy to clean up after them. I ( Read more... )

Tried the hell thing since I hadn't tried cut and paste before. Hmmm. In other news, I'm sleeping with a CPAP machine these days and not really enjoying it all that much. I'm compliant, though. Burned leaves today, still smoldering outside. Must have a good design for Secret Garden done by tomorrow. Halfway there.

Myles Callahan Warclaw...the first three names for my new grandson. He's a beauty, and he's coming home from the hospital today. Warclaw, it seems, is the tribute to the only Polish relative in my son-in-law's family. 8 lbs 5 oz of supreme smiles. A bit more Irish, certainly.

I met sweetevangeline last month -delightful and generous young woman!  She gave me a poster of the trio which I will frame for my Harry Potter universe bedroom. This occurred the evening that she hosted Harry and the Potters playing the local coffeehouse.  Paul bought us Steak and Shake supper.  I was honored. She and I are both on TWH logistics ( Read more... )

I've been trying to both follow the Yahoo HP decorations group madness and try to figure out how to post to the live journal group to suggest something. I, of course, haven't figured out the journal thing well enough to get this. If anybody on the decorations team can help, I sure wish they'd contact me.

All aggravating. What good is it to be extremely well known for what I do, loved by the clients (sometimes NOT in a good way) and not well paid for it. Too bad I don't believe in the heavenly payoff. It doesn't help with the re-financing thing. Argh ( Read more... )

Babysitting and listening to mother telling the young man to get up off the floor and wondering if I'll use this live journal thing that's a younger person's game. Looks like it might be fun.
