I’ve been working hard on a new spring skin.  It’s taken about a month off and on, but I’m pretty pleased with it.  I can say that I looked at the css code that Reese made for some of my other skins, and modified it to work with what I wanted.  I’m learning all about containers and such.  I’m loving the control you can have over the objects on the page. Pretty soon I’m going to have mastered this css stuff, I can’t wait! … [Read more...]

I didn’t think that life could get any busyier than it is, but darn it, it did.  This weekend was an absolute blur.  At some point I moved my 61 VW bug from my neighbours house to my house.  Unfortunately, I couldn’t drive it.  I had to push it.  My neighbour and I did it, all by ourselves.  I was pretty proud about this, but really sad that the car didn’t start.  I really hope that the problem isn’t the starter.  I think it … [Read more...]

Lookie what I got!  A really cute postcard from my secret pal!  Isn’t it nifty?  It feels like it is water color paper that she printed a cool knitting needle picture on to!  I ADORE it!  I have to keep an idea book for my EDIT 273 class, and I’m putting it in there!  I think it is so creative!  Thank you so much SP7!  I’m watching the mail! … [Read more...]

So, I’m going to do it.  I can’t believe I’m going to, but I am.  I am hosting Spoil-a-Blogger for the third time.  THIRD.  This time the dates are from February 6 - April 6.  Ok so I know it’s strange dates, but I wasn’t together enough to get things ready for the first, and if we wait until the 15th, we miss Valentines Day.  I don’t think I should make the participants miss Valentines Day! So, if you want to participate, send … [Read more...]

So last night, Jessica and I continued on our weekly happy hour trend, only this time we went to Paragon Restaurant instead of Scott’s Seafood. I didn’t think I was going to drink, but then Jessica said, of course you are going to drink. So, we scanned the bar drinks menu for something really light weight. Then we found it. A cooler made with fresh lemonade and raspberry infused vodka. The bartender made it pretty weak. What was cool was that I really couldn’t taste much … [Read more...]

Here was my kitchen on Sunday night.  Notice, Daisy has to be in the middle of all I do.  She set this shot up. This was my kitchen yesterday.  Daisy is visiting neighbours at my old house while work is being done in the kitchen.  She gets entirely too nervous. This is my kitchen today.  Still missing Daisy…  The house is lonely without her. Good thing I have a fridge in the dining room and a microwave in the living room.  I’ve been told … [Read more...]

Saturday Snidge and I slept in a bit, and didn't really get started until after 10. It might have been later. I can't remember now. I tried to get us tickets to Avenue Q, but alas, there were none available at the 1/2 price ticket place and even worse, none available at the box office. Basically, we were screwed on seeing Avenue Q. It was then, we decided to walk. And walk, we did. We walked from the hotel down to Chelsea where we had the nicest Chinese food. I had Soy Sauce Chicken. It … [Read more...]

Oh my goodness! What a week! I'm going to start with NYC. Then I'll move on to the rest... I just adore Snidget! Seriously, I do! It took me forever to get to the hotel, but when I got there, I walked in and said "are you ready for some company?" She gave me a huge hug, and then it was like we had known each other for years! After a pretty restless night, I think the excitment of having a weekend in NYC was keeping us up, we ended up at Bliss. We had the most expensive pedicure that I … [Read more...]

So, Snidge and I are taking a road trip to NYC. I'm so excited, I can barely stand it. We are getting a Plum Plum pedicure at Bliss Salon on 49th Street... Then off to see Wicked. There will be so many other things we will be doing as well.... Tons and tons of shopping. I'll try to send post cards, but I think I'm going to be entirely too busy! Let me tell you, I really need this! … [Read more...]
