• Lego Train Track

    I have a LEGO Train, no power functions yet, and no track yet. I would like to get all of that, to have a decent layout. But … Lego don’t have any good track in their shop at home store, there is some on eBay for WAY TOO MUCH MONEY! It was $15.99 at one…


  • Starhawk Public Beta & PS3

    I was invited to the Starhawk Private Beta in 2011, thus automatically included in the Starhawk Public Beta right away, though I’d have been anyhow since I’m PS Plus. One of my children had gotten an invite to Starhawk Private Beta also, so he’s in with the Public Beta too. No other family members have…


  • Wikipedia is blacked out for 24 hours today

    I support their move. It’s hard on us though. Just bit me. I knew about it ahead too. But it’s a truth universally acknowledged, show people how bad something could be, and they will finally believe it. I do applaud their blackout on January 18, 2012. Every Category in this blog system is applied to…


  • Movie Weekend

    Thursday night was the Grand Opening for our local theatre. It’s something I’ve wished for, a long time, and that wish was granted rather close to home. Just a few miles away, there’s a brand new Carmike theatre, and it’s really nice. We usually drive over 20 miles to get to a shopping area that…

  • Time Stretch

    This week has gone slower than the week before and the week before and the week before and the week before. It’s just perspective, but even so, it’s as real and anything can get. A new year dawned 6 days ago. Christmas even longer ago. Getting to each event was fast. Now with this one…


  • Christmas Card Troubles

    I was sick in the middle of December, figured out exactly what I wanted to do for a Christmas card during that time, but didn’t complete a full one, only 5 that were half done. The picture on my previous post was my prototype card, I abandoned that design pretty fast. What I came up…


  • The Christmas Spirit and Me

    I have to get some things done today. Get things going to get another stage of Christmas Card creation on it’s way. (I have a basic form and the front done, but the decor is not done 100% and I don’t know what I’m doing yet with the other parts.) Figure out how to get…

      I got Victoria’s card today. it is so cute and really a professional look that it is hard to believe it wasnt produced by a child. I love it! About being grumpy about a hubbie’s lack of Christmas spirit, my hubby refuses to put up lights on the house. He did put up our tree (pre-lit fake one) but I decorated it myself and yesterday, put away all the decorations already so we don’t have to do it when we go back to work next week on Tuesday. We are going to a campsite with some friends on New Years eve and coming back on Monday so there will be no time afterwards to clean up. it is just depressing to take it all down now. The Christmas season comes and goes so quickly now days and it is rather bitter-sweet. If it lingered longer we would probably wish it was over sooner, so the timing is probably ok. Have a Happy New Year and I hope your Christmas was Merry. Love, Becky


  • Windows Live Writer Test

    I just upgraded my old desktop using a Media Center XP disc I have. It’s not on the machine it used to be on, and it activated and validates just fine. I call it an upgrade, though it was a clean install, not really much of an upgrade, same OS, just a better flavour. I…


  • A Perspective

    This article makes me uncomfortable, and also makes me laugh. Consoles are big, important, and Sony has the best one. Why do we have a WII? Well, we do because it was cheaper, and kind of novel at the time (April 2008) … hard to find in our area, DH brought one home from a…
