Photo Overload

My grandma's memorial service is today. In preparation for it, I have been dealing with all of the photos that she collected over her lifetime. Thanks to the effords of my parents and myself, we now have a repository of family photos from approx 1940 on … about 300 images. Of course there were many [...]

Things

Annoying Things – Tivo deleted last week's ep of Veronica Mars before I got to watch it – Ditto Grey's Anatomy – Matt's been sick and I've been tired so the house is a mess and laundry is piling up – Our beautiful weather (in the 60s) has turned bitter cold and snowy – Discover [...]

What We've Been Up To

Matt made the mistake of getting a new video game a couple weeks back and we've been playing it incessantly. It's the latest title in the Final Fantasy series and like all titles from this series it features scantily clad extremely feminie heroines and even more scantily clad feminine-looking heroes, a mish-mash of technology (teleportation, [...]

Thanksgiving

I really really really cannot believe that the 4-day weekend is over with. Thursday was basically an all-day Turkey fest. That photo is from Thanksgiving. Loki came with us to my grandma's house and spent most of his day in the side-yard which connects to the porch by a staircase and separates with a gate. [...]

I have a half-day myself, but not really because of tomorrow's holiday. We have an appointment with the perinatologist today so he can check and make sure [...]

What to Do With All Those Photos

I'm sure you all have seen the cool things that you can do with Snapfish and Kodak Gallery, but you may not yet have seen Qoop. Qoop integrates with your Flickr account and features some photo swag that you may not have seen before. I especially like their mini photo books, keychains, and luggage tags. [...]

Happy Monday

The weekend was nice. Dinner with my parents on Friday. They cooked AND cleaned at our house. So very nice. Video games, shopping with friends, family party, dinner out, errand running, laundry-doing, TV-watching, more video-game playing, dinner making. That was the rest of the weekend. Weather was gorgeous. Clear skies, temps in the 50s, no [...]

Exhausted

I took a look over our calendar for the next 6 weeks or so and I'm exhausted just from looking at it. We are jam packed with events so much that we don't have a free weekend until mid December and as you can imagine, “free” will be a relative term as we wrap up [...]
