    Technology is personal

    The other day my hubby, out of town, texted me about getting a new laptop for our daughter (who works with him) I suggested a couple of things and within a few minutes he called me and said oh no I was going to get you a laptop for Christmas, but I now want you…

    House Painting is done

    Since September 25th, we’ve had construction and final painting going on until today. Today was brutal, doors painted had to be left open, had to put all cats into bedrooms with doors shut, and I had to baby sit the chicken (Madame Chicken-legs) … she kept getting paint on herself, being an inquisitive people chicken.

  • Windows were finished inside yesterday

    Windows were finished inside yesterday

    Two windows need molding around them on the inside of the house. (My office and a stubbed bathroom in the “basement.”) All windows then need caulking between quarter-round and casing, then prime, then white enamel. The house siding is nearly all installed.

These windows are triple pane, .25 U-factor (4) A super duper upgrade to what was…

Always looking and following. Today’s picture are…

  • Migraine Switcher Misery

    I woke up before 4am today. Didn’t feel like I could go back to sleep. So I was up, drank water, listened to music in my office, time went on, I was enragengly hungry suddenly. It became so insistent I had to go make bacon and and a fried egg. Eating that at 5am was…

  • Bonk, Bonk, Bonk, Bonk, Bonk…

    I had a migraine building last night. Tried to go to sleep, bonk, bonk, bonk, bonk, bonk… over and over … it was right there in my head, but it wasn’t my imagination. It kept going most of the evening, 11pm it was still going, and I lost consciousness somewhere after that. Stuff like this…
