bear with me

Finally have a camera that works, but that doesn't magically make me a great photographer. Have a lot of practicing to do!

Fiona's a natural -- loves the camera.

Molly's new home, other than the sofa, is the kitty condo that was a Christmas gift from Grandma.

Our newest family member


My first sofa purchase -- I'm very very very happy (the girls love it too -- just wish they'd love it a little less with their CLAWS -- water bottle has been copiously used for retraining).

rain rain go away

I know I know, we need the rain, but I'm ready for spring!

Nothing huge to report, other than new sofa arriving Tuesday afternoon and new digital camera arriving Wednesday. With camera, I can finally post pictures again! Very busy today preparing for the former, and almost feel like I have a clean house. ha ha ha.

Need to go to work so I can relax!

I am wiped! I got a cleaning bug or something yesterday and have been at it ever since. I'm finally completely pooped out, so am getting more music on my ipod (yay, Tom Petty!). Reliving high school, I guess. In fact, I'm enjoying The Police on the Grammies right now -- one of my favorite all time groups!

The girls are wiped, too. It's exhausting to be constantly under Mom's feet as she's going non-stop. Molly must have passed out somewhere -- don't know where she went. Feefs is curled up on my lap, watching TV (she's a TV addict, what can I say?).

My three big goals today were kind of met: (a) picked up the prescription I need for my peripheral neuropathy--thank the good lord!--I've been out for a week and, funnily enough, haven't slept well in a week; (b) found my USB cable so I can put photos on this site, but didn't find the adapter I need!; and (c) found the new digital camera I want to get, but couldn't find parking at Best Buy, so I'll have to order it online tonight. I wanted to get shots of the back yard with this rain, oh well! And I wanted to get a shot of the HUGE garden spider that's taken residence on my glass doors (outside, thank goodness). OH well.

I have the new Michael Crichton book to read this week (successful library trip today). Almost done listening the new Alex Cross book (by James Patterson) -- great "read."

But for now . . . time to kick back, relax for the last several hours of the weekend, and enjoy BG tonight.

raining cats and dogs!

Since it's been a pretty dry year, I'm not going to complain about the rain -- I'm just looking forward to working in the back yard.

SO glad it's Saturday. Ordered my first ever sofa purchase, which will replace a 20+ year old raggedy love seat that needs to go to heaven. Baked bread (can't wait to try it!). Just enjoyed a delish dinner of london broil, and Moroccan quinoa over arugula with pomegranate seeds on top. Delish AND good for you, too!

Molly's on day two of being little miss cuddly. It can't last for much longer, so I'm taking full advantage of it.

Big news of this week is that I won an ipod nano! I'll be spending some time tonight on my music and audiobook libraries. Hee hee hee.

Not much ...

to report...

TOUGH week at work.

Completely wiped today.

Some intestinal virus then came along and kicked my behind today.

In bed since early afternoon, all joints hurt, very unhappy GI system, skin even hurts.

Have to get over this tomorrow -- have to be at work bright and early Monday morning!
