We'll see for how long this time. Man have I been gone or what? Not only did I just stop writing I quit going to other peoples sites as well. It was like I just fell off the face of the earth. There's really no reason either other than laziness. I just quit going on the computer other than to pay bills. I've thought about coming back to it from time to time but just never did. The real test will

So the last chick that was hired back in May in my department has now been fired. We're down to two people in my department again, just me and bosslady. And now I find out that I'll be moving down one cubicle to be right next to her. I don't understand why it's important for that to happen, makes no sense to me. Especially if they eventually hire another person it would make more sense for

So, yeah, nothing much has been happening around Kat's house lately, hence no entries. HDiTty still hasn't transferred over the vacation photos to the home computer yet and as mentioned I really don't want to use the laptop. One of these months it'll get done.______________________________So since I don't have anything really to write about I did another search for ideas. The following questions

I voted, did you?It doesn't matter who I or you voted for, just matters that we did. I stayed up to watch the results with Mr. Dan Rather. Also wanted to watch the speeches. Both were very good. McCain was a gracious loser and Obama was a gracious winner. Now let's see how things will go.Either way it would've gone History would've been made. What a time we live in.

OK, so I believe he downloaded all the photos. Problem is, he did it to the laptop, not the main computer. He takes the laptop with him to work. On his nights off, when we're both at home he's on the computer almost the whole time. I hate the laptop, I want to do it on the desk computer. When the hell am I supposed to do a post with photos of our most excellent vacation? Hmmm?Wednesday is bowling

Thanks Saintseester for checking in. The vacation went really well, not long enough as most. I'll write up a post about it as soon as HD downloads the photos and I can put some up. Last week we were both busy getting back into work and not doing much on our time off. Hopefully by the weekend if not before he'll be able to get them downloaded.As far as what's been going on since we got back it's

So today is the day. We'll be leaving soon, hopefully. I have a little shopping to do and unfortunately we still have to pack but other than that I think we'll be good to go. We'll be taking the puppy with us. HDiTty's other friend that he asked to take him didn't say no but he had to talk to his wife. In the meantime HD called the 2nd place that was open to make sure they still were and to

So we finally booked a place the other day. Just an hour later we finally received an email from one of the other places that accepts pets and they're available with the last Saturday also. But the deposit for the 1st place in nonrefundable. As it turns out the chick that said she'd watch Poydras has an issue with the fact that he's not fully house trained yet. She has her house up for sale

Man I can't wait!!!________________________Saints win! Saints win! Saints win!!________________________We still haven't booked a place for vacation yet but that's because we've only received a response from one place so far. And unfortunately they don't take pets. We'd like to be able to take Poydras if at all possible. So I sent Emails again to 3 of the other places we've considered. One of

I got the turkey I wanted last Wednesday. I was very excited. It came in the 10th frame of the 2nd game. WOO HOO!!_________________________Although the Saints lost yesterday, very sad, they still did pretty darn good. The first quarter they weren't looking so hot, like they didn't even have a chance. But they fought their way back and gave the Broncos a run for their money. They certainly made

So we'll be going on our first real vacation in ages starting October 3rd and I can't wait. We still haven't made up our minds where we'll be going though. Originally we were going to Niagara Falls and meeting up with our friends from Canada. Then it was Niagara and on to New York City. Then it was Niagara, New York City and maybe Vermont and/or Main - a driving trip. Then it went back to Niagara

Brendan DolanAge 37Glen Rock, N.J.World Trade Center, 92nd FloorThese are the basic facts that I have to go from to form a tribute to Brendan. Not much really, how do I go about building a tribute that would be fitting? I will do my best.A few more basics but at the same time such important facts: He was a loving husband to Stacey Dolan and a doting father to Sarah Danielle and Samantha Nicole.If

I had originally done this post two years ago and last year I only linked to it. This year I decided to redo my date to bring it up today.It's been 5 years but it seems like it just happened. I didn't know anyone that was injured let alone perished but it still affected me deeply.I remember leaving work to go get my 13" tv to bring back so we could have up to date information since the radio

So, obviously I changed the template and as soon as I'm able to I'll change a bit more. One thing I plan on doing is changing the colors of the words to gold, or at least as close to that as possible. I tried doing bloggers custom template but that got rid of my blogroll. I could use their form but then I'd have to add each one individually and right now I don't have the time to do that. So at

PoydrasYep, we decided to go with the most obscure name. Although we really like many of the others there were just too many reasons not to use them. Other than having to explain where this name comes from there's nothing wrong with it. Plus, it just felt right calling him this, the others didn't.He'll be going in on the 17th for some shots, getting neutered and the breed test. Most people agree

The puppy is coming along in his training. He still has some accidents in the house though. Luckily it's only pee, he's never gone poo in the house. Knock on wood!! I spent all last evening watching The Dog Whisperer and I see where we can improve on some things. We used to watch that show quite a while ago pretty regularly. But I quit recording it after I had read how other trainers had a

So, I'v added a new site to my blog roll. It's A Pile of Dog Bones. I've been to his site before, although it's been quite awhile, sorry about that! And while bored yesterday I started clicking on different links that other people had on their sites and while looking through CP's list I remembered I liked what The Dog wrote and decided to go again. Turns out he's in a competition so I'll be

OK, so my husband is the king of procrastination and I know this but still. DAMN, I told two women I'd get them a copy of the opening ceremonies. The problem is is that I have to rely on him to do so because I haven't learned how to do all the recording crap required to get them done. And now it's been over a week since I said I'd do it and they're still not done. Almost, but not quite.

So, we ended up not going to Door County the other weekend. We ended up staying home but at least we did something every day. I was frustrated at first that we weren't going anywhere because I just knew we would end up doing nothing but sitting on our butts for the whole weekend. But although we pretty much took it easy, like I said, we did do stuff every day.Friday I had my doctor's appointment

So, while playing catch up on Saintseester's site I came across the following meme and decided I'd do it myself for an easy post. So here goes:1. Who are your favorite authors? This is an easy one. Stephen King, Nora Roberts, Anne Rice, Robert McCammon and for the old and dead English Royals it would be Alison Weir2. What are your favorite books? My all time favorite would be Swan Song.

Last Saturday I went to a cousin's wedding. She married a guy whose family came over here several years ago from Scotland. Where I want to go so badly!! Apparently his father is the head of the Scotland bank in New York. WOW! I have no idea why he and some of his siblings live here in Illinois though. But I was told that his mom divides her time between New York and here. She will literally fly
