My Little Dancing Queens

I must admit that I am glad I called out Personal tonight! Granted it was to watch the season finally of Survivor but I had a great time with the girls.

Flowers from Jacq!

My best friend in the entire world sent me flowers for my birthday! How sweet was that?!?! I heard the possessed doorbell ring (it does it all the time and no one is there so we rarely answer it but I heard a truck a few seconds earlier) and outside was a big ol' box from FedEx. I read the label and it was for me!! Not only were they pink but they were Gerbera Daisies, my favorite!!

Thank you, Jacque!!

The Ellusive Teenager...

I went on a safari to find the ellusive but much talked about teenager. There is rumor that one lives in this house. The apparently spend the majority of their time locked in their rooms with music blaring. Most have complained of horrible thumping music, risque clothing and strange holes in odd body parts... I am thinking that this one is of a higher breed.

It is often times locked in it's room, yes... but the music that blares out of it is either country or Broadway showtunes. The favorite hobby is drawing; either in the computer program Paint (antient to say the least) or with pen and pencil. There are no strange pearcings and the clothing, well as you can see it is just plain cute. It is confirmed, this is the best child in the teenage age bracket in the universe.

Sami and My Birthday Cake

Sami is the cutest thing and even though the cat attacked her (don't ask because I don't know... all I know is she has four scratches on her leg and it wasn't her fault) she still found time to celebrate! My uncle taught her earlier this month to run her hands through her hair and pull it straight up... see the cake!!
She is such a mess but she loved getting cleaned up even better - I have the soaking wet shirt to prove it! Yep, this is the best future two year old on the planet... just look at that face, that beautiful face.

Happy Birthday to Me

The Last Little Bit...

Alright - 3 more and I am all caught up on my "Days of Christmas" wallpaper present to everyone. I was going to write a really cheesy poem but I just can't think of one at the moment. Enjoy the paper and I will more than likely write more later on, especially if I can't sleep.

Love you and be good poppets til I return.

Apology Continued

Apparently you can only post five images at a time with this program... will work on learning HTML and web design so I can be a 'mini MK' but for right now, on with the show... and it is officially my birthday - I heard the clock chime midnight... good thing I'm not Cinderella!!

So Sorry...

I know it has been forever since I have posted anything. Between my bronchitis/allergies/asthma kicking my ass and working 70 hours a week at my part-time job I have been a bit run down. So, by the time I get this uploaded it will be my 34th birthday and in honor of such a momentous occassion I have decided to post a wallpaper for each day I have missed!

Happy downloading and I promise to get better, minus my upcoming vacation to Disney with my best friend but other than that I will be good - I swear!!

Happy Birthday to Me!

The Second Day of Christmas...

On the Second Day of Christmas your P88hBear gave to you... a wallpaper of Donald being Scrooge for you to view! (It's late ~ not sure if they are going to get any better through out the month so just laugh, download and enjoy!).

Internet Explorer 7

I downloaded the new version of Internet Explorer last week and it is complete crap! The program continually shuts down and is so not user friendly. The best part is, I emailed Microsoft asking for assistance with a few of the technical difficulties that it presented and they responded with...

" Thank you for contacting Microsoft Online Customer Service.

I understand that you have issues with Internet Explorer 7. I realize the importance of the issue and look forward to assist you today.

I recommend you to speak with a support professional regarding this issue. You may contact the Internet Explorer 7 Technical Support Team by calling 1-866-234-6020. They are available from 5 A.M to 9 P.M Monday to Friday and from 6 A.M to 3 P.M on Saturday and Sunday, Pacific Standard Time.

I hope that your issue is resolved at the earliest.

Thank you for using Microsoft Products and Services.

Basically, this is a canned message and didn't answer any of my questions. So you know what this computer savvy lassy did? I went to The Official Microsoft website and learned how to unload the piece of crap #7 version and reinstall my wonderful #6 version... life is better.

So my warning to all my poppets tonight ~ DO NOT DOWNLOAD INTERNET EXPLORER 7, at least not yet. Wait a few more months for them to work out all the bugs... then I'll test it out for you again and let you know.

Be good poppets and I'll talk to you soon.

The First Day of Christmas...

On the First Day of Christmas, your P88hBear gave to you... a wallpaper of Pooh, Tigger and Piglet too!
