I took advantage of an offer to get my lawn mower tuned up-- which means that it's gotten sent away to have it's blade sharpened, etc. Lawn wasn't too bad--mainly soggy when I did it, but now with a few days of sun and warmth, it's grown, alot. Talked to someone I know though work who has a lawncare side business about taking care of it for a few ( Read more... )

Well I had a pretty fun weekend with my family, I won't call it relaxing in any way. Saturday night I went down to my brother and sister-in law's. They took me out to dinner to celebrate my b-day next week. When we went back to the house my 4 1/2 nephew beat me soundly at Wii bowling. I broke 100 in each of the 3 games so I am happy. Then we ( Read more... )

My PC had a stroke Friday night. It got stuck in a neverending loop of trying to reboot. I tried to boot up from the XP disc, but it still didn't work. I possibly could have gotten it fixed, but I've had the computer for at least 9 years and it was probably due to be retired. I am now the owner of an Apple iMac. It seems like a nice little ( Read more... )

Guess I should do an update since I've been neglecting my LJ. Been busy hitting the gym again. Between getting home later because of working out and a cuddly cat who wants to snuggle, I just don't get online as much as I used to. Also if I'm short on time, I'll check Facebook instead of my LJ ( Read more... )

Tomorrow I'll be doing the Making Strides for Breast Cancer walk. Not looking forward to getting up early, but the walk will be fun. I'm part of the team from work, I know a few friends are walking for their work too, and one of the girls from the gym works for the American Cancer Society, so she's working the event. I don't mind doing these ( Read more... )

Picked up my ring today. It looks nice. My Mom and Aunt took a ring my grandmother had that had two diamonds and decided to give it to the two granddaughters. Since I am the oldest I got my choice of the diamonds and took the nicer one. I took a picture to a local jeweler, plus looked at some of the catalogues of settings. I found a couple I ( Read more... )

Well last week I got my bathroom renovated. :) For some unknown reason one of the previous owners of my house decided to paint the tub. I thought it looked dingy one day and scrubbed it which made the paint start to flake off. There were also some problems with grout between the tile and tub, etc. Since my toilet would sometimes run on it's ( Read more... )

Finally got my Wii connected to the internet. Not sure why I wanted to, but since I do have a wireless router for my computer, I just wanted to see if I could. Course probably next time I try it, it won't work. ;)

I may check into Netflix since supposedly you can download shows and stuff to your Wii. It might be worth it...

I just had to pick the hottest week of the year to take my summer vacation ( Read more... )
