This weeks theme: Comfy

I had to do some digging for pics, as all of mine were lost when our computer crashed last weekend. I found this on my mom board that my SIL posted, so I “stole” it, I know she won’t mind, as I show my niece on here quite frequently! This is my niece Ella, doesn’t she look oh so comfy with their dog Bosey?

Friday Feast #113

Posted by: Jodi  :  Category: Friday Feast

Appetizer
What is your favorite herb or spice? Cinnamon

Soup
Name a song you like but haven’t heard in a long time. Summer of 69 ~ by Bryan Adams

Salad
If you were to take just one minute to write down as many things as you can think of that you need (not want) to do, approximately how many things would there be? 5 things I can think of right now: laundry, dishes, clean basement, clean garage, get groceries

Main Course
Tell something interesting about one of your family members (nothing scandalous, please, just something unique). My husband is an awesome guitar player, even tho he thinks he isn’t.

Dessert
What’s the latest you’ve ever stayed awake? in my younger years ~ I was always out until 3 or 4, but these days I am lucky if I stay awake past 10.

Come feast with us ~ Friday Feast

Tackle it Tuesday

Posted by: Jodi  :  Category: Tackle it Tuesday


Join Us For Tackle It Tuesday. We’re making housework blog-able! Each week on Tuesday, we are posting before and after pictures of a project or trouble area that we tackled this week. Find out more about Tackle It Tuesday here.

The project can be little or big – whatever you want. Basically, Tackle It Tuesday is about giving ourselves incentive, deadlines and satisfaction in getting our household tasks done.

My project doesn’t involve pictures this week. After our computer crash this weekend ~ with the loss of our hard drive ~ and all our “stuff”, I have a lot to reinstall on the computer. So I will be busy for most of the day getting everything back in the computer. Wish I could say the same for all our pictures, files and my DH auto cad drawings. They are gone. Sad, so very sad! Make sure you back up your files and make copies of all pictures!

Computer meltdown………

Posted by: Jodi  :  Category: Uncategorized

Thursday we were doing some maintainence on the computer~ and well ~ we had a meltdown! Grrrrrr The system wouldn’t reboot for nothing! So I was without my computer yet again all day yesterday! Talk about meltdowns! I was having serious withdrawals!

We took it over to a friends house, had dinner with them, and then the guys worked on it. The conclusion…. the harddrive took a poop! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Oh so many pictures I lost! *fingers crossed* this place GPS or something lik that can manually retrieve them! I don’t care so much about the files, but darn it all, I NEED my pictures! I had this forethought to burn them on Thursday, but when I tried… the stinking burner wouldn’t work! I should have been smarter and uploaded them to Kodak.com or something like that, but I wasn’t thinking! And now that I think of it… all my pics/headers for my blog stuff are gone too, oy-vey! I also have to see if I can get my CK kids food program (for daycare) software reloaded ~ I am waiting on a call back from them.

So word to the wise, backup up your stuff daily!
