My cousin lost his battle with cancer. He was buried yesterday.
I'm so very sad, yet I'm relieved that he is no longer suffering.

What a gorgeous day in Pittsburgh! Just the way I like it - sunny and the temp in the 70's - a most welcome change from the scorching heat we've had for the past few weeks. Lately I've wanted to do nothing but sit in front of the fan. Because of the heat I haven't even wanted to use our new gym equipment. We have 4 pieces of equipment..a multi- ( Read more... )

Since Raven brought it out in the open I feel that I can speak a little more freely about the true reason we closed RavenNoir. To be honest I still don't know the true reason. I thought it was because the 4 partners just didn't have enough time to work on the site. At least that was the reason she gave me in an email. In that same email she ( Read more... )

Insert the words 'in bed' at the end of your fortune...its usually good for a chuckle.

Even a pack a week isn't good for my health, so I decided to quite altogether. It hasn't been too difficult, but there are those times when I would just love to light up ( Read more... )

Electricity is a wonderful thing and I'm so glad to have it back after almost 2 days without it. Thirty thousand people in Pittsburgh were without power when a storm knocked it out Friday evening. And what a storm it was. It didn't last long but it packed quite a punch ( Read more... )

This is the first time since returning from my family visit that I've actually sat down to my computer for any length of time. I just haven't felt like spending much time on the damn thing. BTW the visit with my family was nice. I saw some relatives that I haven't seen in years and some of them didn't even recognize me. I guess weighing less ( Read more... )

On Tuesday I took my computer into a service center to see if they could figure out why I couldn't get the new CD burner I bought to work. For some reason my computer wasn't even recognizing it so I couldn't burn any CDs. I just got my computer back today and I'm so glad to have it back. I hated going 2 days without reading my email ( Read more... )
