Sorry about Friday...

I didn't blog yesterday, I think. Busy, and tiring day! Culminated in
bad news from a friend, and I don't know how to handle it.

Now, after a solid nights sleep, I finally got to give blood! Liked
the guy My Grrrl got. Liked the girl that started me. Not real sure
about the lady who is gonna finish me...

Lots going on today. This, then prepping for Prom, then my daughters
Prom. Tomorrow, I plant in my new garden!

Almost done here...maybe more later!

Does not like me as much as I like it... That is all.

Thursday April 28th, 2011

So, today is going to be an early day, I am not feeling well, going to be going home early and bed right after that.

On the bus this morning I decided that I am going to do my best to be in the craft fair here at work in, I think like November. I am going to start working on crochet purses, etc. Maybe I can get My Grrrl to paint some more rocks. Those always go over great! Maybe some other stuff too.

Anyhow, I have decided that Thursday will be "Craft Fair Update Day". This way, maybe I can hold myself accountable to myself and actually do it!

Well, that is all, please excuse the Ham post. I sent it last night from my phone on the bus, and it was having a hard time sending, so now it just keeps trying. I have deleted 15 of the same post! I keep trying to make it go away, but to no avail.

That is all. I am going home now and to bed soon there after!

Wednesday April 27th, 2011

Longest day of my life! UGH! And, to top it off, I did not have time to blog. I mean, here I am, blogging, but I did not have time to do anything worthy.

Today is Garden Day. My garden is almost ready to plant in! I am so excited! This weekend, wind permitting, I am going to plant the babies that I have started!!! I am so excited, so is My Grrrl! I am going to have her paint a sign for the garden area. I am so excited! It is hard to be excited when I am so tired, but there will be hot dogs and brauts on the grill when I get home, that is so awesome!!!

I have been getting into the new show Dexter. My brother in law turned me on to it. It is pretty good. I am really enjoying it!

I also love ham... Just for what it is... I love ham. I fried some up this morning before work, and I am eating some right now, cold... YUM! What the heck. Random thoughts! I love Dexter, I love ham, I love gardening, and I love My Grrrl!

I would also LOVE this day to be over!!!! 1/2 an hour and it will be over! At least THIS phase!

That is all out there in blog land... Time to close out the day. Oh yeah, it is Administrative Assistants Day, formerly known as secretaries day, and my boss is new, and she did not get me anything. I will let it go. I don't hold it against her, just more stuff to carry on the bus.But still, I think that I will get something for myself and put her name on it! Haha. I think that I am going to try to figure out someway to ask her if she will let me order myself an iPad! Hehe, it's worth a try, right!?!? ;) Wish me luck!

Tuesday April 26th, 2011... RE-PURPOSE OR DIE DAY!

So, first, I want to talk about something cool that my mom did on Easter. She brought the kids gifts, and she wrapped them in the paper towels that she has used to dry her colored eggs on. They came out on the neatest polka-dot kinda pattern. They bled into the paper towels very nicely. So, that is my Re-Purpose or Die item for this week. At least a personal one. I mean, I didn't do, it, but I saw it, and I'm totally stealing it, so...

As for something else I want to add. Mini Plant Hanging. I think that I added this correctly. I saw this on my Facebook page. I am a fa of Ready Made magazine. I really do love it, I get the paper subscription with my coke points.

Anyhow, this kind of thing is what I am talking about. Using what you have around, that you might throw away anyhow, to do something cool with. That is what our "Hippie House" is all about too...

BTW, thanks to my awesome Grrrl, who tiled the stairwell landing yesterday, amid personal drama no less! ;)  Yet another one of the millions of reasons that I love her. And it looks great! I wanted it done before our oldest daughters graduation party, and she did it! Da Da Da Daaaa!

OK, well, I better go now, before I get Re-Purposed into a jobless person... Breaks over!

Monday April 25th, 2011

Quiet weekend, not sure if I blogged yesterday? We mostly hung out around the house, because of  various maladies. MY Grrrl got into an "argument" with the girlfriend. The girlfriend is acting like a 5 year old... Anyhow, my Mom came by with Easter goodies. OH MAN. I just realized that I left my candy at home! Oh that stinks!

Anyhow, I am at work, LONG days this week, so I can have Friday off for the Royal Wedding. Even though it comes on at 0100 our time, we will watch it in bed, and have tea and snacks, and even though I probably COULD make it in a few hours that day, I'm not going to. I might have to do some hours on Saturday, but, there is weekend diff if I do that, so it's OK.


Today is Foto Fun day here, so here are some photos from the last week. Enjoy!

I took this one from my back patio. I used the tripod I have to grip the top of the gazebo. Wonderful!

This one was taken on my roof at sunset.

I love the way the sky is pink in these ones!

This one reminds me of Independence Day, the movie, when the space ships start appearing...

Same with this one.

Crazy Colors!

Yep

Uh huh

Same sky, a few minutes later...

This is my favorite of the set. I love the sunsets from my roof, but there is always a power line in the way, unless I get up on the top roof, and I am to scared to do that alone. This particular time, I think that my Grrrl must have been downstairs, or busy or something.
