...but I had a good day and wanted to share! I waded through some yucky sound files today. Although I found a cardiologist that I want to wrap up as an example of "How to dictate correctly." The good part of the day happened when Wendy called and asked if I wanted to go snowshoeing. Initially, I said no, since I was had lots of work to finish ( Read more... )

I've been trying to do a lot of stuff lately. It's wonderful that my MiL is here to help us out. But I've been missing my kitchen lately, and feeling a little like things are getting done just before I get a chance to tackle them. Avery has been hanging out at Keith's computer more, watching music videos on youtube. I think I am just feeling a ( Read more... )

fighting a virus sucks. I am really a bad patient, so having my voice go in and out for days now is not fun, and the coughing, and the draining nasal passages. grrr. But otherwise today was a good day. :) Hopefully the meds the dr. gave me will work it out, but they run out on Monday, and I am not holding my breath. Trying to read Dr. Suess ( Read more... )

Well, I guess you are never too old to have tonsillitis. (aka swollen,inflamed tonsils) In my case, they are in conjunction with a nasty head cold, and losing my voice. I went to the doctor and they have me on meds. We will see if it helps. I am drinking OJ, and trying not to do too much in order to let my body rest and fight off the probably ( Read more... )

So I am taking a break from madly crocheting holiday gifts. It's been great, mostly, being able to make warm winter things for family. I can carry around my project as I follow the troublemakers around the house, and I have been listening to the Harry Potter books on CD while I am doing it. It's much better than TV, since there is no picture to ( Read more... )

Sitting at my desk, looking out the window, I see lots of falling snow. I think we are getting the first really big snow of the season. The ground was brown this morning, and now it is white, and the snow just keeps coming ( Read more... )

We got snow!!!! and it was enough to go sledding!! Avery had his first sledding adventure. He had no idea why everyone else was laughing, but he had a good time anyway. I had a blast. There is just enough snow to cover the ground, and it's just sticky enough that I was able to have a good sled run down our front yard hill ( Read more... )

Okay, again the house is full. An old friend of Vickie's is visiting, so that's nice. and Michelle is up to get away from her family and see her boyfriend. She would only stay with us under 2 conditions. 1) I let her cook at least once. (No Problem there. 1 less thing I have to think about) 2) I let her babysit Avery ( Read more... )

Today is not a good tooth day. I had a filling, which took 2 shots to get numb, so I didn't feel my jaw joint getting stretched out until the numb wore off. Avery has been fussy because his teeth are starting to move again, but not enough to break through yet ( Read more... )

Okay, HUGE geek moment. Last night we were having all kinds of problems getting my microphone to work for voice chat. Keith finally decided that the front plate on my sound card was dead or hooked up wrong. When we plugged that headset into the back ports, everything worked ( Read more... )
