Just Feeling Sick! :(

Well, I am not really sick like flu or bug or anything with me physically.

Okay, Sunday was a good day. I was able to update my other blogs and put pictures on them on the web from my computer.

Last week, I had a friend of mine check out my computer and he found 10 viruses on the darn thing. He did not find anything on my external hard drive which was good because my whole life was on that hard drive. Did you happen to notice that I said "WAS"

Well, I just don't know, there I was sitting and typing and getting ready to print out some registration forms that I need for my studio when I double click like normal and it gave me an error. "Can't find path" WHAT? I know it is in there, I can see it. You stupid computer, why can't you find it. It is right there.

So, I thought, well maybe since I plugged in the external hard drive in after I booted the computer up, so I did a reboot. Well, now the stupid computer can't even find my external hard drive, well no I take that back. It found the hard drive but the disk is not formatted. "Would you like to format the disk", it keep asking. Well, OK! Then it gives me a warning that if I format it, I will lose all my data. Well, I LOST ALL OF MY LIFE! GONE! LIKE A BLINK OF AN EYE! POOOOOF! By this time I am furious.

A soccer ball is the last thing I want to be kicking, but I thought it said it. Finally, I said Ok, go ahead, since ALL MY DATA IS GONE ANYWAY! Hence the touch of anger i built up. So, I click yes, what! another error. "Sorry, the disk can not be formatted because of something stupid. I can't even remember what it said I was so mad.

Four years of my life, just gone like that. WTF! I now have to recreate everything. Okay, for some you geeks out there. I do not have a mirror drive. That drive was messed up too a while back, so I am totally working off one main hard drive and now a new external hard drive I had before to put in another computer. Oh, by the way, my external hard drive that I bought will not work in the computer I have because it does not have the same connectors.

You know it really could be worse. I think I need some chocolate or just a really good alcohol beverage. No, cause I have to go teach. For my birthday next week, I am having a good stiff drink. I think I deserve that. Yea ME!

What is Wrong with This Picture?

Who says that we can't all just live together?

I used to watch the Tom and Jerry show (cartoon) and I totally love it. I still do and I think the mouse is just so cute. Well, the mouse is always teasing the cat. The cat is always trying to out smart the mouse. Right!

Okay, in the Sylvester and Tweetie cartoon, the cat is always trying to get the bird. The bird is always teasing the cat.

Well, not in my house. Take a look.

Here is my sweet 12 inch beagle sleeping with my daughter on one side of the bed and the cat on the other side. All is good at night time. :)

Here is my Tweetie and Sylvester. Ed (the parrot) was not even upset that the cat was near. The cat (snowflake) was sitting on my lap just moments ago before the picture.

Now, tell me we can' t all live together.

I thought about bringin the duck in (Aflac) to sit and poop all over me for a Kodak moment. I was voted against that moment.

Oh! such happy time at my little West Texas Redneck House. What next.

We Have Fire!

Yes, we have made fire in the backyard. I know, bunch of rednecks.

My girls wanted to make smores. What! I said, I think my hubby must have been drinking because the next thing I know, he is outside being Paul Bunin chopping on wood. HA!

He digs a little area and Wham we have fire! The air was quite chilly and so it worked really well. I think they were trying to get into the Halloween spirit. Now, where are those ghost.

So, after I finished working on my Red, White and Blue Turbo shirt and being the crafty mom that I am, I joined the group. Enjoy the pictures.

Now this one above looks freaky!


I thought Sam you might enjoy this too.

Hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween. My daughter and the guy standing are going to dress up as Batman and Batgirl. They look really good. I will have pictures of the exciting event. They are suppose to be off riding the scooter. Should be hilarious.

What to Write!

I tell you that I have been in a little slump lately. Actually, my life is a little boring right now.

I was in the process of looking at other people's post and such and it finally dawned on me what to write. Then, my caffeine has not kicked in and I received a phone call and my train has wrecked. I can not for the life of me think or remember what the heck I was going to write about.

Well, anyhow, I really hate Uncle Sam. I put an extension on my taxes because I really did not for one want to do them and secondly I knew I would owe the old man some money. Well, that time came last week and boy was I in a shock. What the heck am I going to do now. They say that some people really lose weight when they are depressed. I am wondering why in the heck I am not thin. Well, probably I just shake it off and go about my business and not worry about. I did however, cancel class that evening so that I could get the taxes mailed off. Don't know how I am going to pay but I got them mailed off in time. :) They said send a check. Okay, is there supposed to be money in the bank for that? Just kidding! Well, no check, because no money. Now what?

Still, can't think of what it is yet. Nothing has jogged my spaceful brain. Nothing up there to hold it there. I thought exercise was suppose to help in this area. What am I missing?

I am still waiting. You think I am kidding. I am literally sitting in my chair typing and nothing is coming. You know what. I think I will try again tomorrow. It is just not working. Meanwhile, why don't you enjoy some cute pictures.

Just one of our ducks (AFLAC) Okay we really have two ducks.

This is my baby. Sammie. She is just a sweetheart little girl. (12 inch Beagle)

She can't believe that Skylar is getting to eat and not her.

she is bored, I guess she decided to chase after the duck.

Oh, I finally remember what it was. I guess it will have to wait now until the next post. I should write it down, so that I can remember what it was.

Have a great day. Remember to go vote.

American Heart Walk!

Okay everyone, the day finally came and then went. I was just amazed at all the people who have took this cause seriously. I sponsored my group and sponsored the PHSSN (Patty Hanks Shelton School of Nursing) also. They had red shirts and they looked great. This event has grown over the years. The association had several vendors out there this year. I was supposed to do the warm-up but everyone just started to start walking once all the announcements were done. They don't seem the importance of warming up and stretching even after they walk. Well, at least they came out to walk and enjoy the day. What a gorgeous day for this event. Right after the event the wind really picked up. Go figure. Like the wind doesn't blow in West Texas. Anyhow, we got the walk done before the wind picked up. Enjoy the pictures.

You always need to be friends with your insurance people. HA! I guess he was there in case someone went down.

This was such a nice event this year.

HOT, HOT, HOT

I love this time of year. Not too hot. Every year for the past 14 years the balloons have come to Abilene. Now, it is nothing like New Mexico. One of these days I want to go there and watch all the hot air balloons. It is really big there. Here there is just a few but I do enjoy getting out and watching the balloon glow at night. It is amazing. Check out my pictures.

I one thing that I wanted to see was the kites with the lights on at night. Those guys are awesome. How do they not get all tangled up. It is truly amazing. If it was too windy then the balloons would not have been able to light up. But the kites would have been able to fly. since the wind was no where then the balloons were able to light up. Can't have both.

WOW! Amazing One in a Billion

A friend of mine sent these photos to me. I was in complete amazement. I love great photos. Just wanted to share with you.

You know have a great Wednesday and nothing to whine about today. I will have more great photos in a couple of days. :)
