Once again, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted here. I think I’ve started to realize why. This week is has been a very hard one - very traumatic, dealing with some people that might be called friends, but probably shouldn’t be. And my weight stayed the same instead ( Read more... )

I have mentioned that I just got a new fancy, high end, gaming laptop. That runs windows. And because of this, I’m able to install Steam, which is a method by which you can purchase games, download them, and then play them on any computer that has Steam installed on it- ( Read more... )

A couple of weeks ago an auction was held for a little girl’s future.  One of my contributions to the items to be purchased was my shortbread, which is dipped in chocolate.  The lot went for a pretty high price, and the winner asked me for the recipe.  Since I haven’t ( Read more... )
