pira

Well today I scooted out while I had the opportunity to run errands (a.k.a. had access to my own car) and aside from picking up more CD-Rs, a large memory stick and scrutinizing the external HDs... (didn't even know 'til Tam mentioned it, that desktop terabyte units exist...mind still aboggling)... I also found a carry-on, rolly suitcase that I will use for my Vancouver trip to transport the Velvetpaw Siblings and Bonsai Boys. I am toying with the idea of bringing Samual along too *motions to photograph*...as he's such a lovely little urban pirate :3

ANYway ~ I then scooted up the extension ladder outside, and replaced the backyard security light bulbs. I have to do that on the driveway too at some point...*hate heights*

Slowly sifting through the piles of papers that I had in hanging folders behind the pcs and ...stuff...that collected around them. Our computers are on a monster walnut diningroom table with plenty of horizontal surface to heap needful clutter on. Amidst all that crap you'd think I'd have been able to find the power cord for my scanner ~ which has gone AWOL for some inexplicable reason. *0__o?! WHY my scanner would even be unplugged from the battery back-up unit is even MORE of a mystery.

The eldest has been scanning, on her machine, generations of photos she dragged down out of the attic ~ which are currently spread all over the livingroom.

There must be an unwritten rule in this house. ALL ROOMS BUT ONE must look like a hurricane hit them at ALL TIMES.

Since my bedroom is looking mighty spiffy right now that must mean something else had to give ;)

Well off again to take the sprog to tutoring. I'd do the grocery shopping and then can sit back in the car and read uninterupted for an hour *^___^*

Hopefully tonight the Bman and I can watch another episode of TrueBlood on DVD. He's really liking it, and I'm glad for the opportunity to watch it at my leisure instead of freaking out on my family when they'd walk in and talk or call or just run roughshod over us ~ during show when it's broadcast on cable. The husband is only now starting to realize just HOW MUCH we were missing dialogue and storywise when relying on seeing it televised. :P

Yes sir....gobs of backstory.
