WEE WEE'S

.





Nothing much but taking it easy. Decided to hop on helping my pal in Canada to do some bling for her ride board at an MS meeting. She coordinates motorcycle rides for MS and well...I surprised myself and came up with an original logo to craft some bling from :)  I haven't drawn bikes in a good while so I was afraid it would have hair or a tail lol. So 'weeeeeee' :D A bit of fun and crafting!

I posted first prototype of these 'wing dings', 'bling' or whatever they are that I use in wall hangings. I like incorportated bones, metal, threads, angelina fibers, silk, snakeskin....every kind of textile I can lay my hands on. They are just hammered and twisted copper.

Jim's Shih Tzu did bite me last night so he is grounded to his cage. He is obsessed with his squeak toys we call "Wee wee's" (we shout "weeeee" when we toss them in the air to him). He decided to growl at Paros and I decided he was not going to do this and went to move him :l  Owwww.

Safetylink is waiting for some parts to finish up over here and the owner had her son-in-law who is an investigator for the Sheriff's dept. to install it. All I can say is Protect America is soooo full of it when they said I could do this myself. He is saavy in computers and this stuff yet he had a difficult time routing wires (half is wireless so if the wires get cut...I have cell too!!). It's hard to do this when there is no attic above the first floor. Weeeeee! We are in good hands :)))



Sanity seems obtainable around here so I think we will be nice and relaxed when we go pick up our Grecian China doll :) And like one of my siblings posted above, we may even go 'Weeeeeee' picking up this Easter Bunny Honey!



Adding a GPS to a small harness on the ride list so she won't go 'wwweeeee' ....just yet ;)

ANCIENT MACHINA

.

Awesome day so far...lawn service, security installation service, vets friend brought by first metal afghan hound prototype (for mailbox to be painted black and he is doing me a large one for wrought iron fence in running motion), Fed X man sending back 1st alarm (which on order confirmation I kept telling the guy Daniel...NO...not agreeing to those terms of coming into my bank...and the bank say they took out more money than they told me, atty. says it's illegal what they done, and Identity Guard say they are trying to access Jims credit so other than that...good day :) Just beware of Protect America....they seem to be illegal as hell over there.

It does remind me of the day I installed the alarm system into the beach house and the carpet installer fought with the securtiy people because they were in each others way so this time worked out well. Jim took the photo below of the empty lot where the house once stood before Katrina when he was on the coast last Thursday. Even the trees are gone :( I took the one above before the lawn service removes 2 large bushes and we paint it classic white and black to look like a traditional southern home and to remind us a bit of New Orleans.

Service Tech does say there are a LOT of wires for ham radios, 6 TV's, 2 phone lines, etc I will have to deal with and then the alarm/surround sound/music for the intercom system (pictured above) will need to be replaced. We should find out where the wires come and go from and calculate if we need a wireless system or not.

And Paros dog food is made up for the week. I usually do chicken breasts with brown rice and veggies since it usually sells .99/lb but this week they had rump roast for $2.99/lb so brown rice, peas, carrots, and a gravy from wheat flour....he is one happy and healthy boy and my check book is too since cans of dog food go for $2 can and can be contaminated crap ;)  Baked some sliced apples in honey and water I put on peanut butter toast for treats.

HP is awesome too. They are fixing the Vista so time on my hands a bit...to play some final fantasy and start looking at laptops.  The only 'Ancient Machina' around will be from the game ;)

Except for AT&T...we got it in drive!

DAILY JOURNEYS

.
I may never get to reopen my site but so glad for this daily calander journal/diary/blog thing to record/publish what keeps me down and why I can't update my software. I did find a link to help install CS2 properly until I join a class to get the master collection and so far it seems Dreamsuite and PSP won't play together :/ I will see if it is the same issue as CS2 later.

Jim had me cancel the security system I ordered and we were able to get in touch with my first choice who is local. When he heard I would have to repair the first system if it were to go out....OH HELLLLL NOOOO lol! I guess after seeing me sucked into HP and AT&T...  well...he is making sure I am serviced when he is away :) The tech does say there may be an issue going online through monitoring with the camera but having it online anyway for now so AT&T better start digging and fix their lines or shell out money to me for giving me service they can't deliver like their tech said in Jan. And the owner did say she had the same issues with them. When AT&T told her they hoped her experience would change after their talk...she replied "If it does...it means it just got worse" :l  OMG...needed that one! She is toooo cool ;) I will have to do her a site for free if I get set up over here and she lets me. Still have 3 years on enough space for several sites and can't use THANK YOU #%*! AT&T and HP :P


Mr. Nap It...I need to make the bed :/

HP is to call tomorrow I believe so I will know where we stand. And if it comes to 3 yr old HP computer is trash and I just bought the 6 core tower ALONE for over 2k (& over 2k in monitors, batteries, accessories, etc.) .....I think I'll throw up :P  Then troll EVERY forum of complaint to add my experiences.

Well...thought I'd start drawing some since speeds still aren't up to par. It sometimes helps to take a photo and put it in a photoshop or paint shop pro...use the pencil effect...then turn it to grayscale. If I get the wacom installed on here...I will then trace over it or just view it and pencil it onto paper. I prefer the less perfect drawing that are less defined like Picasso, Monet, etc. One of my favorites of today does horses and afghan hounds...  Martial Robin who is also french like the greats.  I have some of his pieces and a special spot saved in the house for a future large piece :)

Off to speedtest.net and then to see how much I am using on here. Uploaded a wallpaper yesterday at 6 mgs. alone so I'm sure it's a lot but if not...I was told verizon maybe could service me (Doubt that lol. Forever doomed to journey with AT&T :/).
