Each year my husband and I each get our own gifts, but we also decide on one large combined gift that we share. Either something we want for the house, an activity we’d like to try or something we really need that both of us will use and enjoy. This year we have been undecided [...]
If you are a photographer of any kind, you probably understand the annoyance of carrying your camera on a strap around your neck. At least if you are like me and you still have the nylon strap that came with your camera, those things are so scratchy. I can imagine that after a certain amount [...]
Today I went to get a remote for my new phone so that I could use normal headphones, the ones that came with it are garbage. It’s not like a remote you use for the TV but a thing that plugs into the phone that you can plug your headphones into and it has [...]
I think anyone who knows me and my husband knows that we are major gadget geeks. Rather than clothes and shoes, holidays and whatever else people usually spend their money on, we are always on the lookout for a new laptop, PDA, mobile phone, etc. My working has really made this easier for us.
This is [...]
Right, so I decided that since I’m a working woman who has a pretty good chance of moving on to a permanent situation (according to my colleagues), I’ve decided to buy myself something shiney and new when I get paid. I can pay bills and all that crap later, I want satisfaction… in the material [...]
It’s hard to believe that Christmas is over already! I spent ages counting the days until it got here, and now it’s passed. Isn’t that always the way?
It was sort of weird on Christmas Eve because it didn’t really seem like Christmas at all. We ordered some Chinese food and I spent a while making [...]
Back in January I was itching to get a new camera, but I couldn’t decide what kind I wanted. I decided at the time to hold off until I knew for sure, as it’s something that I’d be using for a few years. So for the last 10 months I’ve been looking at reviews and [...]
Aside from the feeling of independence, meeting people and getting out of the house, the biggest perk of working again is making money. My husband and I decided that when my first paycheck comes in that I should buy myself something I really want. Something we wouldn’t put the money on out otherwise but can [...]
I have a PERIOD KEY!
………………………………………..
No more cutting and pasting! It’s wonderful! How do I have a new period key? It’s one of many new keys on my NEW LAPTOP!
I know, this story just keeps getting better and better doesn’t it?
It’s a Sony Vaio FJ Series and the things I love about it [...]
Yesterday I returned the Creative Camera and got the Logitech Camera back with a powered USB hub. The camera didn’t work. I spent most of the afternoon on the phone with the people from Logitech (Who were as useless as tits on a bull!) and with the makers of this laptop (Who were [...]
I really need to get a new memory or start writing things down. Every day I see/hear/read/think things and think oh I must write about this in my blog. Of course once blog time comes around the memories of these things are nowhere to be found.Oh,
Oh! I remember one!! Ok, I got another good [...]
Ever wonder where I sit when I type this? Well this is it! I took these pictures yesterday after Xander and I cleaned up. The livingroom used to look different and I was getting tired of it. We started out at like 9:30 moving the furniture around, throwing things away and figuring [...]
Today was awesome. It was the first day my mother was off work since we’ve been home and we went shopppinnnng! Xander got some new clothes, my mom got a really nice wine colored leather jacket and I got a digital camera! (Ok it’s Xander’s too but I’ll use it way more than [...]
