It rained a little yesterday...it was a nice gentle rain. Today and Saturday it is supposed to rain a little more. It looks like it rained some last night. At one point we had some light fog. I like fog.

I am about half way on my first knitted scarf. I have tried knitting before but lost interest. It wasnt too hard for me to pick it up since I crochet. Once I get this scarf done, I will try and knit something from a pattern.

Winds was gusting up to 40 MPH today. Made it hard to do much outside. Must be blowing something in....like rain.

I like disaster movies and true crime books...wonder what that says about me.

Some of the Irises are blooming. This may be a banner year for them this year. It has been a long time since we have had more then a dozen or so blooms.

The following sites are fun sites to browse:

Thank you, thank you very much.

We got some much needed rain on Tuesday (about an inch), then Thursday (yesterday) we got a little more rain. Now today and Saturday we are set to get more rain. I know we need the rain, but do we really need to get this much rain in one week? I can't do laundry and I can't keep the windows open as long as I would like. I think I will stop complaining. We very well could not get rain when we need it in summer, so I think I will shut up and enjoy it.

Leo LaPorte is back on TechTv. But it may only be temporary. When Chris Pirillo was in for a show or two, I did watch. Didn't know if I would like him being back on the show, but he had calmed down and did a good job. If Leo is not back as the permanent host of the show and they bring back Chris, I may end up watching the show with him. (Ok, I doubt that makes sense. But thats me for ya)

Got a little bit of rain yesterday. The wind started blowing hard late Saturday night and was at times strong enough to straighten out a pigs tail.

Did some yardwork and finally got around to cleaning out the garage.

It went from cool earlier in the week to rather warm by weeks end, last week. It is supposed to be more normal weather wise this week.

Took my dogs to the vets office on Saturday. They are Siberian Huskies and while very nice dogs, they are nuts when in the car and in the vets office. They got their yearly shots and a checkup while they were there.

Mowed for the second time this week. Today I mowed the backyard. Was happy that it is a nice sunny Sunday. We got a little rain yesterday. The clouds didnt break until late in the day.

The tulips in the side yard are doing well. Will have a few new ones later in the week. Hopefully the iris plants will do good this year.

Cant deceide what color to paint my room. You'd think it would be easy but not for me.

More tulips have bloomed.

A little morning rain and the clouds moved out late in the afternoon. More of the tulips planted last year have bloomed.

The daffodils are waning but the tulips are coming on strong.

Leo LaPorte is no longer with with TechTv. Its sad, I really liked him. And I liked him as the host of Call For Help then Chris Pirillo. I know Comcast (or Vulcan) has purchased TechTv and the gamers channel G4 is now a sister station to TechTv. Used to watch G4 (mostly Portal and G4tv.com), but found the often repeated shows to much for me.

If they bring Pirillo back on Call For Help, I dont know if watch it again. I think I will just shut up and play it by ear.

Change can be good but sometimes change is wrong.

Painted the dining room and kitchen over the weekend. I had painted a little bit of the kitchen with a couple accent colors (snapdragon-a yellow- and goldfish-an orange) earlier in the week. The rest of the kitchen and dining room were painted raw silk-a creamy white with yellow undertones. Now the only room left in the house to paint in my bedroom. The last time I painted it, I picked semi-gloss which seemed to accent all the defects in the walls. Now all I need to do is pick the right color and maybe in flat this time.
