I have been very busy around my house these days. Made new drapes for the house and hung them painted and I got a beautiful new solid wood carved door for my house. I often suffer from thinking I'm Bob Villa much to my personal detriment. This door hanging thing was no exception. When you have a door that weighs more than you do it...

I've been really busy and not had a lot of time to be here lately. I kind of won the lottery a little and have been using the money to pay off all of my school loans and anything else I have that looks like debt. I hope there will be enough left for me to buy a new car too, I have been in...

money makes the world go round right? it also stops dead if you ain't got none...
congratulations on your win, you must have done something lovely somewhere else in the universe to get such a nice thing back.

You know, I think I have been following your journal for ever, and am glad that this happened, mostly because it seems that you only write about bad stuff...either that, or you have had bad luck...argh...in any case; you deserve it, congatulations, I am very hapy for you!

Oh, and, maybe go for a BMW 645i instead. Trust me on this smile

I was right, my son had a virus and made a full recovery without any invasive procedures. I'm glad I didn't let them dye and CT him.

As for me, all kinds of stuff. It got really cold so I have been sewing pet beds like crazy for my outside cat and my dog.

how are you doing these days?
cherries:
Good news!
*hugs*

Yeah we got 4 inches of ice and sleet here, topped with about 4 inches of snow.
Sucks ass really.
I got a really nifty remnant to make a dog bed from, it was originally 14.99 a yard, marked down to 1.75, with 75% off remnants, So I paid net to nothing for it. Anyhow, it's fleece on one side and almost a sherpa lambswool on the other. There isn't a ton of the fabric so I think it might be a simple pillow bed.

Hope all is well with you.

My son was in the ER last night. He might have an appendicitis. I chose to not have the CT scan and am waiting it out a little. I have gotten shit for this decision, but I don't like the allergy possibility with the CT dye they wanted to give him. If he just has a stomach bug it is a pointless risk and if...

That really sucks. I hope he's ok.

And the computer crapped out again, this time the wireless card decided it didn't like working anymore. Mmmm... Whatever. I'm so tired of it.

I got a big comfy new sectional that cost a lot and doesn't go with anything in my house. So I need to take all of my ornate and delicate stuff and sell it and figure out how to decorate around...

Oops... I left out "understand the possible capital gains tax consequences of real-estate sales when it isn't your principal residence".

deny:
I'm not sure if it is the same everywhere but, if you sell your residential property you have to purchase another property in order to avoid paying taxes. That's here though, so I'm not sure if that is the law in every state.

Yay, I finally got my computer back from the shop. This is the 3'd power supply this year and the second motherboard. I bet that shop is really tired of me. The computer is still under warranty. I have a HUGE Belkin UPS that in theory I think regulates the power the thing gets, so it must be me. It always runs really hot too,...

You are so gorgeous! When is the next set on the way? Do you have any waiting?
nikonphoto80:
I don't see how it could be you, unless your running a fuck ton of programs at the same time. What kind of computer do you have?

I have a lot of financial problems right now, most of my furniture is pretty old, it's hard for me to even buy art supplies right now, I need to get some big roles of paper for my printer so I can do some photo shows, I don't think any one would by any of my furniture.

That is pretty gross, did you try some industrial cleaner that has acid in it?

I've never heard of lemi shine, I will have to see if they have that in Lexington, it must be great.

Last night my phone rang. I often screen my calls quite a bit and/or don't answer them if I'm busy doing something else and don't feel like being interrupted. This call said "Private Number" on the caller ID. I have a few friends out of town who are "private" so I answered it.

It was a recording. It was this woman in an incredibly bitchy...

I've been so busy sewing. I had some of my stuff featured on a local TV show so I was making a whole range of things to feature. It ended up being mildly disappointing because they used my quilt as a table cloth and showed and talked about all of the little stuff but never mentioned the quilt I put over 30 hours of work...

Hmmm... Maybe they could bring back X-Files for a "Midnyte the Electrifier" episode? I've seen the studies about some people carrying more of a static charge than others. Whatever it is, you seem to be harder on electronic devices than purely electrical devices. To me, that says static electricity.

You would be amazed what I've seen electricians consider A-OK. Then again, maybe you wouldn't. Checking the grounding of your entrance panel is definitely something you can do yourself. All good things start with a good grounding. tongue (does that qualify as geek humor?) Anybody who understands OBD2 can definitely tell by looking at a power panel whether things are kosher or not.
