For Sale

Posted by Liz

Well I am eBaying my MacBook. Its been a good computer to me, but I found something new I want. So always have to sale something to get the new toy.  I am most likely going to buy this Asus EEE PC. Looks like it will fit my life style great! Be easy to move from a soon to be crawling baby, up to 8 hour battery life, and its very durible to being dropped. The 40 BG SSD sounds sexy...  I think I am going to get the black one but I am sure I will change my mind a lot between now and then.  I am going to get the linux verison and then install Ubuntu EEE.  Looks pretty sweet. 

So very excited I always love getting new tech toys. We went a looked at the smaller one at Best Buy last night and look pretty cool.

another weekend in the can

Posted by Liz

We had another great weekend!  Margaret is getting so big and starting to really be a lot of fun.  This week she started blowing bubbles! Its great makes a huge mess and she loves it.  She also started riding in her car that my dad got for her a few months ago.  The love to go fast, fast, fast! And also started rolling over from her stomach to back more regular.  So that is what all is new with us...

Garage Sale

Posted by Liz

Will and I had our first garage sale. It was a great success!  We got rid of almost all our junk and got paid for it.

We then procceded to the Hobby Shop and spent our new money on a new plane and transmitter.  So we spent the rest of the weekend flying in the front yard and garage.  It was a lot of fun.  To bad we don't have more stuff to sale for next weekend. Could go buy more new toys.

Wedding Ring

Posted by Liz

Since having Margaret my fingers are a bit bigger so I havn't wore my ring in probably close to a year.  I try it on here and there and it never fits.  We have talked about getting it resized a few times.  Yesterday while at the mall we got a wild hair and went to the James Avery store to look at some rings.  I didn't really think we would be buying anything today. But we were both pretty surprised at the prices and how affordable it would be for me to have a new ring.  Keep in might I am a sliver girl and not really into diamonds.  Oh how long Will got with me ;)   After trying on five or so different rings I picked a pretty simple silver band. It has a little more design that my first ring and best of all it fits.

Zoo

Posted by Liz

If all goes well tomorrow it will be Margaret's first zoo trip.  Right now I am listening to her cough on the baby monitor. I don't know what tomorrow has in store for us.  Seems like Lucy always has a runny nose or stuffed up nose.  So not sure if Margaret picked this up from her of if its something else. She also ran a little fever today off and on. It was really low and I think we have started teething which I have probably told everyone.  But I am sure the fever is mostly related to that.

Back to the zoo.... If we do get to make it there will three other moms in the neighborhood going along with eight total kids.  So should be a lot of fun or stress. Well hopefully it will all work out and Margaret can go on her first field trip.

Blogging

Posted by Liz

So I have had a blog now for 10 years! Kind of crazy... I used to write on another personal site before things were even called a blog. Only to get visitors back daily. Because of me many people I know have blogs or used to. Then friends of friends got blogs, ect. Kind of like a multi-level marketing scam. Only I don't make any money off telling people my random thoughts.

So more than once I have tried to think of ways to make money by blogging. Plenty of other people do it and I jumped on the band wagon long before there was really a wagon to hop on. 

I just need to bring people to the site. Or another site if I were to make one. I have had a few ideas, all of which have been done before. But why spend so much time thinking of something new? Since I can do something that has already been proven to work. Google Ads on this site really doesn't do much. Which I didn't expect it to.  I really think I am ready to put something else up and try it out.  So maybe in the coming weeks/months I'll have a new site going and making the big bucks.

Spam

Posted by Liz

I am getting a ton of spam right now. I usually pride myself on having a spam free account. Don't know what is going on. Each message is getting sent to a different address. Used to be perks of having my own domain.

I am getting anywhere from 1-100 message every 5 to 10 minutes. So no telling what in the heck I am going to wake up to in the morning. 

Also wondering how many people really come to this site now and if anyone visits more than once that I don't know.

Kung Fu Family

Posted by Liz

"Kung Fu Exchange" "Martial arts" "Kung Fu"

No matter what we are doing we will always be in touch with our kung fu family.

The past two days we were lucky enough to get to spend with some of our kung fu cousins that came to visit from California. This was the first time since our wedding that we got to hang out in Texas and them not have to run of to some event.  They came in for the annual Kung Fu Exchange seminar in Dallas.

So Wednesday night we stayed up late waiting on them to get here. Once they got here they went and visited with Sifu Fogg.  From there they drove on in to Tyler to stay with us and meet our cute little daughter. Who was already sleeping. 

Any ways we got to have plenty of time to do nothing and show them a little bit of Texas, or mostly just Texas food.  Took them to Petty's in Lindale for some chicken fried steaks, grilled rib eyes at the house, and then a little coffee cafe in Flint.

They are gone now but we had a really good time. Margaret was a great little girl while they were here.  So maybe that will help them to make her some little friends to get to come visit.
