  November 4, 2008 Just stopping by

  Just blogging to say I hit level 20. I've been on 19 since the end or July, which tells you how much I've been on here lately. Though I've been getting more time lately, so I hope to catch up with everyone.

  So what has everyone been up to lately?

  September 7, 2008 - Italy and Beyond!

  Hi everyone! It's been a while hasn't it?

  So what has everyone been up to lately?

  I've been MIA, for about 3 or 4 weeks I think. The whole week before I left for Italy was crazy, looking for everything I needed. Then I was in Italy for about ten days. Got home and the next day took a 4hr car ride to take grandma to visit her bf. Came home went to work, baby sat Piper, more work and then yesterday was my birthday, so it was a big family thing.

  I haven't even had time to develop my pictures, but I've uploaded a few hundred of the six hundred or so I took. So next blog expect lots of pics of Rome. Which was awesome! I enjoyed cruising on a seqway around the Colosseum and the roman forums. Another tourist even took a pic of me - he loved the segway. I had lots of fun, and I'll tell you all about it when I get a chance

  BTW did anyone see Prison Beak?

  August 14, 2008

  I haven't been on in a while. I've been busy with work, my volunteer project, and finding everything I will need for my trip to Roma next week.

  Baby Update
  Piper is now about 9 1/2 pounds. My sister is still in a lot of discomfort because of the hospital not stitching/stapling her back together after the c section properly. She's had home-care for the last couple of weeks, but now the part that was healing is coming apart again, so they are sending her to the wound clinic. The nurse didn't think she would be healed for aleast a few months. She isn't supposed to be lifting the baby, but she does anyway. She is so in love with her little princess.

  Parlez-vous Olympics?
  I don't really watch the Olympics but it's always on at my sisters. She has even started taping all Michael Phelps(?) events so I can watch them. I think she enjoys them a lot more than me. When she watches his events you think she was watching a thriller with all the nail biting.

  Trip Prep
  Yesterday, I bought a power adapter/converter so I could use my hair dryer in Europe. I spent $50 on the kit to find out my hair dryer wattage is to high for the converter, and they may already have one in the room. So I thought I could use it to charge my camcorder. Wrong. Can't hook electronics to it. Well, maybe it will come in handy on another trip.

  Cinema
  A couple of weeks ago I went to see Mama Mia. It was awesome. It was the most fun I have ever had at the theatre in a long time. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen. The x file movie on the other hand, was disappointing.

  Alex
  My nephew Alex, step sister's son, is having his 2nd birthday party while I am away, so I am going to miss that. My sister isn't going - issues with my dad and she doesn't want to take the baby out it the sun- so I can't drop of my presents with her. I will have to find sometime this weekend to take his presents over. I'm not sure how I am going to work that out yet.

  The tube
  I've been watching Flashpoint lately. I'm starting to really enjoy it, but stll can't wait until NCIS and Supernatural are back. I'm still trying to puzzle out how Dean is going to get out of hell, and ride around in his old body that was devoured by hellhounds, but I don't think I've worked anything out. I guess I'll have to wait to watch that unfold.

  Peace out!
