The good and the bad... but the bad first

My New Year's ever was fantastical! But as the title states there is bad news on this the first day of the new year. I like to have the bad news told to me first so that is how I will tell ya'll.

Beans Louise is sick. The poor thing was trowing up this morning. She has a high feber and has been sluggish all day. She didn't get up till about 2? This is, of course, what I have been told considering I didn't get home till 3:30. Beanie doesn't feel well as is evident by her blue/back eyes.


On to good new. Last night I went to the Family of 9+2's house. O MY GOODNESS! It has been a while since I have had so much fun! We had THE best time. I tagged along with some friends and ended up being a (good) surprise for the hosts. (I thought my ride said that I was coming. Oops!) People talked for a while then we played catch-phrase, Mad Gab, and Four-On-A-Couch.

While I was at the afore mentioned home my family had guests at our house. I hear they had fun and no trips to the emergency room so I think it went well.

After my party, I went home with my ride. We stayed up talking till 4:30ish. Twas a bit late I admit but.... Hanny went to sleep around 2:45 but Mary wasn't done chatting till later. I awoke fairly early this morning at a 9:3o. I then proceeded to roll over and tell my self that it was too early to arise after being up so...early. At 10:15 I could no long bear lying in bed so I got up and turned on the light and said " ok. It is 10:14 and I must get up my body won't let me sleep anymore!" We talked for 15 minutes before we actually got dressed and went up stairs.
The Rose parade was on but I didn't avidly watch it. Mary and I were looking up new production to put on instead. Then we watched a movie.

Around 2:30 dad came and picked me up. We went to Lowes in hopes of finding a dishwasher. Oh Yeah, that is more bad news, our dishwasher doesn't work. Then we went to the other Lowes but twas of no profit. After that we were off to Walmart where we got a cable to hook up the Internet to my Lappy. Yeah now my lappy has Internet and we are at this very moment putting virus protection on it. Then we went to Best Buy in hopes of finding a USB hub. We found one but it was more expensive than it needed to be so we decided against buying it. You see my dears, it wasn't the "Best Buy".

Continuing on the topic of my lappy. We bought a external hard drive for it b/c it is ancient and holds very little. Soon I will have that hooked up and will be able to put pictures on that and have room to edit them! O Happy day. Look I can make a train with my words.. Going from one Christmas present to another. My family went to a friend's house on Sunday and I was able to get a gun case. Now I can put my gun together! Yeah! I need to shoot it so that I my adrenaline won't spike so badly. When my adrenaline goes up then I begin to shake. Not so good when one holds a gun. They still scare me a bit. The noise is what gets me. I can never brace myself for the sound. Oh well I'll learn. I also need to shoot it so that can hit a stationary target. It would help if I had some arm strength. This is what big cans of tomato soup are for; work outs!

Dad is making fish sticks and onion rings for the kids for dinner. It smells... interesting. I have very recently gotten fairly sensitive to smells. They are bothering me more than they used to. It isn't to the point of nauseousness but I am noticing them. Who know.

I now declare that this post is long enough. Love to all and too all a wonderful God centered new year!
