SOS...I am sinking the boat!!!

Hey Ms Karebare,

That is a lovely thing to do, the Memorial Scholarships in your daughters name :) I hope it helps a little to have a positive to focus on.

Great news on starting the course.. I hope the teacher gets it together a bit more in the next classes! Photoshop is the shizz.. you can get an Academic version for a lot less! I did that. Beware of the Ebay "new" ones selling for a few hundred, they are all Asian knock offs and you won't be able to register them with Adobe.

Gimp kind of does the same.. but it is very limited by comparison...it is definately not "the same" as such, although it does graphics editing.. but no where near the capability of PS... if you want to use the skills in the workplace you will definately need Photoshop, Google Photoshop tutorials there are a billion, and it is an awesome way to learn in conjunction with your official course. :)
 
hubby stayed home today..he has a terrible toothache that was keeping him up. He just started having trouble with his teeth and because he had to have gum surgery he has used all the insurance this year...if he needs a root canal it will be 1200 bucks...just abou the same amount as the bonus check he expected to receive that he was going to buy the flatscreen tv...he was in a funk and saying he wasnt going to get his tooth done. I got mad at him and said that if he gets an absess it will be worse and there are many people out there who wouldnt have the luxury of money that he has to pay for it..so be grateful for that and get your ass in the dentist. needless to say he is there now.

I am making fish for dinner. I thawed it out day before yesterday but never made it. ..we got up early and went and got flowers and then the paint for my living room.

I have this recipe for this little salad..its really good. You take a can of artichoke hearts and drain it/chop them up and then add all kinds of fresh veggies...the best are mushrooms..onions/gr peppers and tomatos..then you just add fat free or lite italian dressing and stir it up...its best when it sits...it is very tasty. If you want you can even add a little bit of whole wheat pasta.

Have to skate (instruct) tonight because they are short staffed..dont really want to but i will. Will get me on the ice anyway.
 
Up 4 ounces..but last week 3.8 pound loss is actually quite a bit so I wasnt surprised.

I am going to go out and garden and then do my best to track my food this week. I slacked on that and exercising a little.

hope all is well with everyone else
 
cant seem to get my lazy ass out from behind the computer. Its like it hypnotizes me sometimes. I did plant about 2 flats of flowers and am excited that it is in the 80's here finally after living through the winter of HELL...its snowed so much this past winter...

I went and bought this cute little black skirt/skort set and an orange tank top. The skort is kind of like "sweatpant" material. I tried on a large but it was too big and the medium fit me so good...I was actually almost mezmerised by my cute ass in the mirror...but the top i had to stick with an XL because "the girls" didnt look as cute as the "Ass" in a smaller size. Dang that makes me sound like i have the proportions of that bounty hunter on tv's wife...(whats his name...dog?)...Like a giant candy apple...Its really not that bad LOL....but i guess..we all hold our fat in certain areas..being a figure skater my legs have always been in good shape...

anyway...i guess i will visit some journals around here..maybe some newbies..or some oldbies i never hit. I start to visit peeps but its like i have adhd and get sidetracked...thank god for "subscriptions to threads" feature or i would never find my way back to people
 
so yesterdays lazydayz turning into productive day today...already mopped the floors and picked up...separated coupons and am going to fold some laundry before i go to the grocery store. i want to get another flat of flowers planted too...

diet yesterday pretty good...goal is not to drink to see if the pounds will melt off me...

i also walked 2 and 1/2 miles yesterday after gardening all day...so i think the calories burned....BURN BABY BURN...

okay better not sit down here or i will never get up...
 
cleaned the fridge...didnt go grocery shopping yet..hubby said we can go when he gets home. kid is up and she just doesnt ever listen to me...a few things...its infuriating...i am so pissed at her right now.
 
A totally unrelated topic

i will be 46 in a few weeks...i was looking in the rear view mirror and noticed i had a nose hair...a gray nose hair...i was appalled/yet slightly amused. I noticed this about a week ago. I only remember it when I get in the car and look in the rear view mirror...

i went to the hardware store and looked in the mirror and there it was AGAIN!!!

then i got home and was sitting in my lazyboy watching tv with my dtr who i was mad at because she was being a bitch because she couldnt find her jean shorts and she was blaming me but it ended up not being my fault because they were in her car ......(BREATH)...but i started thinking about my nose hair and i started laughing and she said "whats so funny"...and i leaned over and said...HEY do you see my gray nose hair and she started laughing and said YES!!!! PULL IT OUT...but i said "I AM TOO AFRAID IT WILL HURT"...and she said "CUT IT WITH THE LITTLE SCISSORS"...and I said "I AM TOO AFRAID I WILL CUT MY NOSTRIL". And everytime I thought of the pain it made me cringe....

I sat in my lazy boy and contemplated but I couldnt stand that I had this gray little beasty nosehair...after all, I am trying to look my best now...so I got the little tiny scissors out and I gave it a trim.....

and thats the story of my nose hair.

No i will not grow 3 and put a beads on it like Bo Derek
 
LOL loved the nose hair story!

Sounds like you have been busy lately being a total Domestic Godess! Good for you!!!

I spent the weekend gardening here too.. it is Autumn here and the weather is perfect! Over Summer it is so bloody hot you can't do a stinkin thing outside.. well I can't anyway!!! So it is bliss to have a bit of cooler weather.. was still sunny though.. lovely!

I get those lazy assed hypno-computer-toad days too, where I just can't move... hence why I don't log in at all on the weekends, I have had to actually TRAIN myself out of it.

Anyhooo.. hope you are having a great day today.. and woo hooo on the cute ass skort(never hear that one before) thing! My legs are by far the worst part of me *wahhhh* I do so envy a nice set 'O' Pins!
 
splurged yesterday and ate way too much...but i felt very satisfied all night so i guess thats a plus and maybe will hold off cravings i have had for gettnig really "full"...i am not having cravings for any particular food..only to get very full so i dont think about food. i walked a little

okay off to photoshop class

peace everyone
 
hahah. I love it! why take a photshop class when you dont' have basic computer knowledge! crazy i tell you. so did you get yourself a copy? and how are you finding the class so far? too hard? too easy? juuuuust right? oh and i know how you feel about the two pounds those BBQ holidays only come around like 3 times a year!
 
well i am finding the class easy and actually frustrating...because the people have so little skills and the instructor doesnt know how to explain things properly it is slow go for me. i am familiar with what she has shown us so far, but it has helped me organize my knowlege some...she was 35 minutes late yesterday, brought her dtr which is fine becasue she was really a good girl during class but 2 times during class she mumbled "Jesus Christ" under her breath...I know the people are frustrating that shouldnt be there but geez...give me a break

I ordered it through my sis in law school...so i shoudl get it in the next week.
 
ok kewl beans. like i said. if you have any questions, let me know. I'm am about to engage in a lot of painting and texturing, so me and photoshop are about to be heavily re-aquainted.
 
Karen, I am 44 and have more than gray nose hairs... I have a batch of them turning white in my beard, and a few on my chest, and maybe a few... oh never mind...


Hope you are good!









Don't need viagra yet... so I'll put up with gray hair...
