You know they say practice makes perfect. Granted my practice isn’t perfect, but I’m trying to get there. My dear friend Tina was looking for an upgrade template for her Blogger Blog. I decided to piddle fart around and make her one. I, myself love it. Let me know what you think about it. Feed back is very much welcomed here.

I think I’m done editing my new template and all that good stuff. I know my neck sure is feeling the strain of being leaned over half the night. I finished up for the night last night around 1 AM. The problem was I couldn’t not go to sleep to save my life. I laid awake until around 4 AM and had to get up at 6:15 to get ready to have hubby to the Dr’s office by 8:30. So I’m running on about 2 hours sleep.
I really appreciate all the good feedback on my first template. It took me longer than I expected, but now I know what I’m looking for, next time it won’t be so long. LOL. Well I’m gonna try to do my blog rounds and maybe lay down for a nap. I sure could use one right now.
Let me ask you a question please. Do you think a 13 year old is old enough to stay home while her parents make a 10 minute trip to the store? This right now is a battle going on between my hubby and myself. I believe Jelly Bean is old enough to watch her two sisters long enough for us to run to the store. He, on the other hand, does not agree. He is constantly thinking of what could go wrong. I understand the concern, but I also think that there comes a time where you have to allow the kids to grow up. So for now, it’s battles around here for the day. So what do you think who would you side in this situation?
Finally hubby got my computer back up and running. Everything is working good so that’s a great sign. I haven’t taken the time to install everything back yet. I really don’t feel up to it today. I’m sure I won’t be using my printer or camera today or tomorrow even for that matter.
After my little accident last night, I’m pretty gosh darn sore. I am ok as long as I don’t inhale too deep or make any sudden movements. Though last night was pretty rough. For some reason, I could not go to sleep. I seen every hour on the hour last night. When I finally did drift off, it wasn’t long before the alarm started buzzing. Don’t ya hate that?
The girls eye appointments went well. There are some minor changes in the older two, but not much. Shorty’s eyes are perfect. But like I explained to the Dr, I’d rather be safe than sorry given the eye problem history with this family.
I am thinking of changing my layout, but not today. I’m not sure what I want. I can’t stand for things to stay the same too long. So how was your day?
I swear I’m an accident waiting to happen. After all of my walking these last two days, I was up half the night with a major cramp in my right foot. It’s still there but I have worse problems to deal with. I sat down at my computer while fixing supper. I leaned back in the chair to stretch a little and all of a sudden, the back of the chair broke and jarred me pretty bad. Not only that the bottom part of the chair somehow managed to pop me in the middle of my back pretty hard. So now I’m resting on the couch. It hurts to breathe. I’m using the trusty laptop right now. I can barely stand up straight. Just my luck. LOL. I told ya, I’m accident prone.
Before my accident, I spend the better half of the day zipping up my 4 gigabytes of photos stored on my computer. Yes that’s a lot but that’s my memories of a couple of years. My baby’s kindergarten graduation, awards day and just every day stuff. I finally decided to get all that in order so hubby could format it. I hope I didn’t forget anything. I will die.
The girls have an eye Dr’s appointment early in the morning. Oh fun. Then hubby has to go back to the Dr early Thursday morning. Speaking of Dr’s, hubby’s Dr’s office called today and they wanted to send him to an Orthapedic Surgeon. But instead of that he is just going to go in Thursday and let her do a few more test. So between the girls and hubby, I will be so ready for school to begin. LOL That’s my vacation time.
I hate stores that price gouge. We have a store locally that we have been going to for a few years now. We have been loyal customers to them. Here lately though I have pretty much stopped going there. As you know, I love the Monster Java Energy drinks. I try to get one a day or every other day. We were paying $2.49 for them. Then all of a sudden they went up to $2.99 for them. They also decided to raise the price of my cigarettes. So we found a store that is just a little bit further away that sells the drinks for $1.99. Now if you figure it up, if I get 2 drinks at the cheaper store, I’m saving two dollars.
We went to the higher store a few minutes ago and I decided to tell them why we haven’t been back in there. I explained to them that the competing store was so much cheaper on a lot of things. I’m not going to lie to them. If they would come down on their prices, I would be happy to go back to them full time as they are closer. But with me having to stretch a dollar, every penny counts. I may have pissed in their cheerios, but I really don’t care. I can’t afford to pay out the ass for a luxury item. Maybe with me telling them how much we are saving will help open their eyes that they are losing customers. I guess only time will tell.
Party like a rockstar
I feel like a teenager again. I slept until 12:15 this afternoon. Granted I didn’t party hard last night. I didn’t even get my drink on. Instead after my painful walk with hubby I took a pain reliever and called it a night and a morning really. The girls didn’t disturb me. The hubby kept the house under control. It felt sooooooo good. But I’m not as refreshed as one might think after 12 plus hours of sleep.
The only thing I hate about sleeping so late is, half the day has already passed me by. Believe it or not though, I think I could go back to bed. But that’s thanks to that lovely pain reliever I took. I have a very low tolerance to things like that. Once a Dr’s prescribed me Xanax for my anxiety. I slept for 2 days off of one little pill. That’s sad isn’t it?
