<RANT> I am getting sick of hearing about smoking bans. Now I am not a smoker but I do believe that companies should be able to decide for themselves the smoking allowed in their establishment. I am tired of hearing about how smoking runs up insurance is bad for your health and etc. The government should be limited to creating smoking bans for government owned facilities. CAL is making laws preventing smoking around small children. REALLY! You won’t stop the stupid from breeding but you stop smokers from smoking in their car with their kids? There are just so many things wrong with this. OK I have to stop and . . . → Read More: Smoking Ban

Well today I did some sewing and designing. I crafted a pattern and a prototype of a laptop bag. The only problem is that the current sample is made of a very thin material and it is impossible to “test” it. I took a lot of pictures while working on this. Finally showered. 😛 No really. So today’s picture tells a story. Well I didn’t play catch up yesterday cause I was just having too much fun checking out this website recommended by Dan. etsy.com is an ebay like site that sells only handmade items. I spent hours just looking at all the things. Also yesterday I got tied up in this idea given to me by Dan’s wife Tara. OMG I think I can make some $$. Their dog has these bandannas that he wears. They are really neat instead of tying around his neck they actually slide over his collar. Excellent! I have some scraps laying around so I worked on making a pattern and a couple demo pieces. This . . . → Read More: A whole new year! Real quick while I wait on KLT to get ready for a run to the store. The HAVAC guy was just here cost me $94 for him to come out. 🙁 He made a temorary fix and will have to order the part on Wednesday. Looks like we are going to be staying in town now. 🙁 Gotta run. Well Mr. Popejoy came over after church, funny how he makes you feel like one of his children. Appears the board is out on my furnace and that he can’t really get the part. I mean he can but the Lennox dealer (korchots) will jack up the price of the part. I have direct knowledge that they jacked up a 36 dollar part by 50 bucks because someone else was installing it. So I have called Korchots based on Jim’s recommendation. I am waiting till tomorrow for them to come out. Seems that I will save 30% on the service call. WHAT THE CRAP? Mr. Popejoy didn’t charge a trip . . . → Read More: sunday what a day Well we stopped at the Eagles last night to watch the patriots and have a drink. I am sure my step-dad is thrilled, the Pats are his team. I sent him a couple text messages to let him know I was watching. 🙂 So this morning just before 4 am I discover that I am in bed alone. I wonder around the house and can’t find KLT. What the heck? This place isn’t that big. He is in the “laundry” room with the door closed, oh and I have to add he is wrapped in a blanket. He was suffering from an unhappy tummy and determined that it was . . . → Read More: sunday I tried to do a self portrait last night for the POD (Picture of the Day — tired of typing that). It didn’t work out so well, not enough light, mirror in the bathroom is dirty, and not enough time as we had dinner plans. 🙁 So here it what I did come up with: Good Morning. Well I have cleaned the living area back up. I keep picking up candy wrappers off the floor. No KLT is not that big of a slob, but he leaves them on flat surfaces and Hunter finds them. I don’t know which one to smack. 🙂 Sitting here cleaning up the photo mess I have. Yes I are DUMB, I forgot to make the DST switch all photos since Las Vegas are one hour off. So I sat down last night with good intentions to blog and post the picture of the day. Only one problem, it was already 11 pm. Yeah I fell asleep. 🙂 Let me tell you about yesterday. After lunch (OH THANK GOD the left overs are gone) Kerry went home to work on his office and I did some sewing. Woah I was so productive. 1st I made Kim’s drape for her office door. I think it is lovely. I need to figure out how she will be tying it back so the window is open but that will come after it is hung. Then I made a pillow case . . . → Read More: Friday Recap Picked up the new TILT on Monday afternoon. She works like a dream. Spent Wednesday customizing and piping her out. (PiccolaFinestre is her name – that is Italian for little windows) Thursday I discover that I can only get some places on the www. OH NOES! Off to AT&T’s live chat feature. After 40 minutes she has told me that I don’t have a data plan and that I am paying per use. UH NO! So she fixes that quickly. And then sends me these instructions to follow https://cingular.atgnow.com/cng/tutorials/KB84444.html . Alright all done and whoa look at that I can get anywhere on the WWW. ME is happy.
