I have to agree with you 100% I have only had computers for 2 years and was just getting use to Windows XP [rebuilt] when it decides to die on me, so now I am using Windows 7, and my brain can hardly handle it. Sorry your blood pump isn't working right, better go in for a tune up..

Dumb Emu. I'm hoping they don't hatch!



.....So of course they will.

Have you had them out for a test to see if they are growing in there? From what I have heard you put the egg on a flat surface and tap it with an eraser and whistle at it. It should rock back and forth a little.

Nope. I haven't done much with them. When I take them out to add water, they *do* feel heavier. Could just be my imagination though. If they do hatch, they'll be some TOUGH Emu. The eggs were not shipped very well AT ALL. Wrapped in newpaper with a few packing peanuts. The first two I am pretty sure had detached aircells, because they kinda made a *plop* sound, when you turned them. The second two, I have no idea, because hubby snuck them in on me.

Sheesh, you all are impatient!!

Can't a girl enjoy her PB sandwich, put her DD down and hurry up and paint a room she's been telling the hubby she'd finish??
Sorry it took so long, but I finally got around to working on painting the room my DH built me for Christmas. He wanted it mostly painted so he can put the subfloor in and what not. Once the BYC forum photo loader thingie gets done messing around...I'll have a pretty picture for you!!

Until then...sorry, you'll just have to sit back and

- eat your popcorn!!

YAY FINALLY!!

So there it is...the stack of building materials...it doesn't look like much, but it's all there. I counted it myself and even had the foreman trying to climb on it to ah....inspect it (yeah, that sounds good). Sorry it's not a close up, but I snuck away while someone was attempting to convince me she was not tired for her nap, and thus I couldn't get too far away. She's a climber and I was listening for the

to signify she climbed & fell out of the crib!!

Little bugger!! Anyway...her it is...all piled up and ready for some BYC'ers to come over with their hammers and help!!

 

[Miss Lydia]

Looks good!

Awesome!

I'm two seconds from losing my mind! I mow the yard today, fine... I try to weed whack and the thing just DIES and never comes on again.

So I come in to type up a letter I need to send for my husband, and my printer acts up... so much so that I tried to reboot it, and it also just DIES!? Won't come back on, won't do anything?

I am so aggravated I could break things... if so many things weren't already broken! This and I have to pay $1000 to get my car fixed this week so I can sell the dang thing!!!!

This is officially NOT my day!!!!
