What I have been up to | 17 Jul 10 |

Well as some of you know we have been redoing the kitchen. This is really taking forever because my husband decided to do it himself. Of course it is much cheaper this way. It has really slowed down this last month or more but hopefully it will get back on track again soon. Due to the kitchen being redone the front hallway also has to be redone because we have closed off a door there. This is the part that he is working on know (the dry walling on the hallway side of things). Once that is complete I am hoping that we can get the kitchen continued on.
I have also been checking into new software for this site. I thought that I had found exactly what I wanted to use but I find that it does not have all that I want and it is very expensive. After the failed attempt at getting help with it (that cost me a lot of money and is really useless garbage) I thought it best to really check into things once more. Mind you I did that the first time around and am really ashamed to admit that I got taken badly. This last while I have been playing around with a new system that I hope that I can use here which hopefully is much better than what we have. Of course this also takes time to do but I am sure that you are all very patient. It is a lot of work but hopefully I will figure it out and also the best way to set it up for us.
No camping for me this year though so I should have more time to work on things. I will miss the camping for sure. Guess I will just have to spend a bit of time with a good relaxing book in the back yard and enjoy the small pool that I have. The weather this last while has been really hot and they are promising more of the same weather so I know that I will have time to enjoy it all at least a bit.
I will of course try to keep you all updated on how I am doing with the new stuff that I am working on.

Netherlands (Holland) vs. Spain | 11 Jul 10 |

Shame, shame, shame on the referee's during this game. I have to admit that I really only managed to see them play in overtime but was really disgusted at the referee's. How the hell can they say that the penalty shot that Holland made hit one of their own. It was clear that it hit a Spanish player. The dutch were not even close enough to be hit by that ball. There were several instances where the Spanish should have had yellow cards and yet did not get them but the dutch go more than enough just in those last few minutes of game play that I saw.
Really a disgrace. No doubt that those fools wanted Spain to win.
I have nothing against Spain winning but it should have been a true fair win and not this bull that happened during that game. Please the shot that they managed to win with was off line. Mind you not by much but enough that it mattered.
This is not the first time that this has happened during World Cup Games that the referee's have been fools. Last time though they were caught before they managed to make it to the final game and removed. This is really disgraceful.
lol my husband says that it was the Octopus's fault.

Weather Alerts Abound and Other Things | 23 Jun 10 |

In Ontario Canada we have had our issues with weather today for sure and it is not over yet. At 1:41 p.m. this afternoon there was an earthquake about 50 km north of Montreal and about 60 km east of Ottawa. It was 5.0 on the richter scale which is considered a medium size earthquake. It could be felt all the way to Cincinnati, Ohio and from what we have been shown down through Pennsylvania as well. Not sure if they could feel it in Pennsylvania though. Here where we live we felt it. I first felt something weird under my feet but didn't really think anything about it until my computer screen started to move around. First I thought that I was just seeing things but then I felt it under my feet again and a second later my screen started to really move around. At this time I looked out several windows but saw nothing so knew that no neighbors had any heavy equipment around that I had not noticed earlier. It was at this time that I knew it was an earthquake since I had experienced this before while I had the business down in Mississauga and when we lived in Ajax. Nothing fell off shelves though this time and broke so we were lucky there. We do though still not know if any damage was done to the outside of the house because the weather today has not been weather to go outside and check anything out in.
We have had torrential rains most of the day but lucky that the thunderstorms stayed south of us and north of us.
During the late afternoon a tornado tore through a town a ways north of here. So as you can expect the weather has really not been great today. Hot, humid and wet.
Tonight and all night though we are expecting some really bad weather to be coming up from the states. It seems that Detroit got hit with tornado's from this system so we are told to be on the alert because it is on the way here. lol wonderful night I am going to have. The first storms went through north of here and moved east towards where my father and kid sis live. Those areas are right now under a warning. From what I know though they are not home but up in one of the areas that was under advisement when the tornado hit in that area. I am sure though that they are ok. Well seems that I am going to have a rather unsettled night since I for sure don't sleep well when I know that this type of storm is on the way.
Tomorrow for sure can't be anything but a better day.
We cannot complain about no rain this year for sure because we have had a great deal of it and the next week we will have rain every day so a good wet week ahead for us. Not much gardening has been done for sure due to this. Well maybe tomorrow I can finally get a color picked for the kitchen lol. I just have not been able to find the color that I want, maybe I will end up just mixing colors to get exactly the right one. This is something that I have done many times before lol. I just can't wait to get the kitchen completed. I cannot post photo's at this time in the gallery because the gallery for some odd reason one day just suddenly disappeared. I looked for it but not sure where it moved to at all.
Ok I have also been looking at some other forum software because this software is really not what it used to be anymore. I will though keep you all informed of what and when this will happen. I do know what I want to use even if it is going to cost me but it will come with some help and that is something that I am really grateful for.
So it is not that I have not wanted to do more here but rather that here is really giving me problems. I started to work on something new already in December of last year but the first place that I went to get help was a place that hires out freelancers. I got taken even after months of research. What I was provided is totally useless and as you can guess it also cost me a great deal. I am sure that I will never use one of those places again. I did though get most of my money back but still ended up paying a lot of money for something that is no good. Anyways one of these days I will go ahead and get the other software that I am sure we will all benefit from and that has a great deal of good things for us to use.
