Snow!
Was hoping spring was just about here but not quite yet it seems.
Winter still has more to say and say it it did with snow!!
Kind of sighing and smiling about it at the same time *lol*. -
We have rounded third and....
First of all, my closing on the selling of my old condo happened last Friday and all is almost cleaned up there. Seems dishwasher is having issues so I'm covering having it checked into, and... we'll see. But anyway it's sold, yay ( Read more... ) -
Thoughts about cutting the cord....
I've been experimenting with cutting the cord while living at my folks. It's going pretty well I'd be dropping cable but keeping internet. Will ask more questions down the road (roku, netflix etc...) but for now I'm considering my internet options. Most likely either Time Warner cable or Cincinnati Bell fioptics. I had TWC before and my folks have ( Read more... ) -
Life without cable - but still with internet... :).
I'm gonna be cutting the cord for a little while - maybe even long term. Have been looking at free and paid options. What are folks' takes on Netflix, hulu, hulu+, youtube, crackle, etc... as options pro and con? -
It hurts when I do this... so maybe don't do it?
In the last couple of months I've developed a horrible lower back pain. It seems to be tied to the armchair I've been using for my laptop. After trying to adjust how I sit for days I finally caved and moved to the couch yesterday/last night and today I feel MUCH better. Said chair is not moving with me. At least I didn't buy it I acquired it in my ( Read more... ) -
Avoiding cabin fever and new coolness :)
Got out a few times yesterday even though the weather was often nasty bordering on scary. I just hate feeling trapped and not escaping during the day, even if only for a little while. But the real reasons were that I *needed* to grocery shop and hopefully look at a couple potential condos. As I posted in facebook last night "I posted this in the ( Read more... ) -
On perspective....
I've never met another person, especially those I was jealous of, who I didn't eventually notice had problems or life situations that I would not want to add/handle. As much as I respect other's lives and choices, this was one of the keys to appreciating the life I have and, to not be humble in the least, the life I love and make work (thank you ( Read more... ) -
Don't wanna write a subject line today.... ;)
The highest horse I cultivate lately is the enjoyment of not getting on a high horse. Or this is the goal anyway. I mean this metaphorically, if that was unclear... though I haven't gotten on any of the animal persuasion either for that matter *lol*. :) -
Adventures in learning new os continue....
Thought I was dealing with a seriously broken safari or os. Turns out to be a "show all bookmarks" setting that I didn't realize kept being tripped somehow. Now I know and I've set it back to normal, but even better I now know how to fix it if it happens again! Yay me and yay for learning new things - even if they do almost drive you out of your ( Read more... ) -
Whirlwind Thanksgiving, and TSA thinks I'm special :).
Had a lovely visit with brother sdavido, sister in law vettecat, and nephew H. Full of wonderful chats, wonderful hugs and wonderful food :).
Flights were okay though busy as expected and ran late on the way back but not too bad. Irritating young adult who had to keep listening to his music during take off and landing and kept hiding it from the flight attendant ( Read more... )
