Double Template #45

Remembering 9/11
(layout by me)
****
So how is everyone tonight? Are you glad it's the weekend?
I know I am!
We had another very busy day today.
Started off with taking the truck in to get the muffler replaced. No more "Harley loud" as the little one says. We also ran a bunch of errands and picked up some odds and ends at walmart(damn walmart). After a late lunch we had to go pick up the truck and stopped to rent a couple of Xbox 360 games. We made it back home about 15 minutes before the boy did from school. Tonight while I was preparing dinner I also prepped everything for tomorrow night's dinner.
Now the reason I'm so late at posting.... I canned tomatoes again after dinner tonight and just finally got to sit down! We have enough to last all winter and I must say I am sick of the smell! Now that the weather has cooled off they will ripen a lot slower.

In scrapping news....
The lack of layouts this month has me wondering if the Participation Gift sucks.
Should I try a new one?
I have also added the link for the P365 Week 37 PSP images on the right.
Thank you Michele!

Project 365 Week 37

Welcome Everyone!
Wow has it been a long but productive day! What makes it so long is that I have been up since midnight! I fell asleep on the couch after dinner last night and woke up at midnight, no luck in going back to sleep. I finally got around to sanding and staining the new arm piece for the glider rocker. I got all the peppers dealt with and stored for the winter. Tomorrow I will have to can tomatoes again! I also managed to get the dishes and laundry both done. I even managed to start a couple of new kits this afternoon while the little took a nap. Then this evening I took all three kids shopping. Both of the older two needed jeans. Found two pair for the oldest but nothing for the boy. He is the hard one to shop for now a days! If I can find things to fit his waist then there waaaaaayy to long! I mean like a foot or more! Oh well it was just one store, we will try again at another and another till we find something. Even managed to pick up a cute top and some sleep pants for the little one. She will be three next month but is already wearing a size 6x!

Hurray!
We have our first layouts of the month tonight!
Tonight's layouts were sent in by Christelle. Thank You Christelle!

Template #210



Howdy!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! The weather was great for BBQ's here. Could not have asked for better! It promised to be a jam packed weekend and it proved to be very full.
So full that I still have not gotten around to making the Double Template September Gift for the month. Yes the Double Template won the poll! But not by much!
*
The last couple of days have been so busy that I have barely managed to get any of my programs installed on this new machine. Yep I'm using the new one! 7 months was a long wait on the old slow beast that for now will be given back to the kids. However my boyfriend is also building a new computer and the oldest of the three computers he has now will be going to the kids, making the one that I had been using obsolete! Well not completely obsolete. I was able to run my MMORPG on it and photoshop, ect, so it is still a good machine just a bit slower then I like. We are also going to be getting rid of / selling one of our laptops. We just don't need 3! So the Dell is up for sale.
*
The one bad thing about formatting my computers, is I always lock my self out of the websites I need to log into. You know the blog, 4 shared, my email! Yep I locked myself out of my email yet again. I must stop using the auto sign in's and actually remember the darn passwords!
So if you have sent me an email you now know why I haven't gotten back to you. I will though I swear! We also need some layouts for this month! We didn't have any as of Friday night anyway.
*
But in the mean time I do have a couple of cute puppy pictures to share from Sunday the pups will be 5 weeks on Tuesday! They are so cute! The one I showed you a couple of weeks ago when they were only 10 days old is the pup in the middle on the first picture and in the second he is on the left. He has already found his forever home but the other two are still looking for there new parents. one boy and one girl. The girl is the one with the darkest colored spots, she is smaller then the boys and very independent compared to them.

Double Template #44

I finally got to buy the parts to build my new computer today!!
I'm in the process of formatting it now and tomorrow I will install all my lovely programs. Can't wait to be able to run my big CAD programs again. My landscaping has drastically suffered with out the Cad this summer. Clients love having it all digitalized in front of them.
We are also attending a BBQ out of town on Sunday and on Monday we are having our own BBQ. Grandpa will be joining us along with a few of our friends and neighbors.
It's a jam packed weekend already and it has just begun!
Have a Happy and Safe Labor Day Weekend and I'll see you all back here Monday night on my new machine. Can't wait, see you then!

Project 365 Week 36

Hi There!
Welcome to September and my blog!
*
Hope your having a good week, someone has to be and I know it's not me!
I'm still fuming over the days events. Let's just say that reservations made for later this month were messed up and booked for last month. We are now out of a chunk of cash and a place to stay! Two weeks to find a new place to stay and every thing we have checked so far is booked full.
*
As to how school is going so far:
*
The boy constantly forgets to bring his homework home. By the time he gets home on the bus, we load up and drive back up to the school to get it, it's closed and locked up for the day.
*
The oldest, So many missing assignments already they have moved her to a guided study hall in stead of open study. (they get rewarded for turning things in on time, why should they get rewarded for doing what is expected of everyone? I asked the school this and all they gave me was the run around on it.)
*
The boyfriend, well Monday his external hard drive for school failed. Spent most of Monday looking fora new one. He still has a lot of catch up to do over this weekend. Everything he had done so far this semester was lost. He now has to redo all of the labs for his security class and Fedora class. Why all of this is such a pain in the butt is way to in depth to go into here.
*
As for me: My first student loan payment is due this month! Yippie! NOT!
*
The little one is begging to go to school.
All I can tell her is that she has to stop using diapers before she can go to school. It's not the #1 that is holding her up but the #2. she absolutely refuses to use the potty for that.
*
Alright, Enough ranting about school, pee, poop and other peoples typos!
You are all really here for the scrapping and the freebies!
I really wish I had a layout to share tonight, especially since I have made your eyes bleed with all the ranting, you really deserve to see something nice and pretty. You always leave me such nice comments! Thank you!
*
Don't forget to vote for the September gift!
