Isn’t it so pretty???

I’ve spent the last 2 weeks setting up my brand new computer.  She is soooo nice and fast and pretty and quiet. I hope we have a long reliable relationship.  We shall see.

Last week

Well…I have been one busy bee.  Eric was in the hospital for 3 days this week so this week was crazy!!!  Add that to a long week at work, and just life in general, so I’m in dire need of a break.  BIG TIME!

I have a new idea on how to try and keep the blog updated.  Because I always have great intentions.  Great stories that I want to type up for each ‘event’.  Then life gets in the way.  So this collage is from my last week.  And it was actually pretty easy to do.

What do you think?  I made the collage in Picasa – in about 10 min.  It took me longer to upload the pictures off my phone (all these pictures are from my iphone – so the quality isn’t that great).

Bad Afternoon

Remember how I said I had a rough week?  Well this is one of the main reasons why!!!  I clipped someone in the parking lot at work on Wednesday.  So I’m sure our insurance rates are about to go up and bye bye to my Christmas present when we pay our insurance deductible.  Thank heavens it is only $500 and that we have rental insurance on our policy so we don’t have to pay for the rental while the van is in the shop.  But I think Eric was going to be getting me that very much wanted iPad 2 for Christmas……….sniff sniff…

Lesson…Don’t be in such a rush that you don’t slow down and pay closer attention to the cars parked around you.  The truck that I clipped was older and had no damage but a little scratch on the front bumper.  If I would have waited a while for the people blocking me to move, I wouldn’t have tried to squeeze out of my spot which cost me much more than a few minutes waiting in the end.  Sigh.  Lessons…..

Christmas Cards Ordered

Stationery card

View the entire collection of cards.

Thanks for your help deciding which card to order.  I especially LOVE the back of this card, it has 9 pictures of the boys throughout the year.  December is only 2 days in, and those 2 days have packed.  Hope to catch up on the blog tomorrow.  Going to bed early tonight because I’m stick, yet again.  Peace out.  :)
