I’m here, sort of

Sunday, February 5th, 2012

Welcome back!

As I type this into my site, I am trying to stay awake.

If you see typos, please forgive me, my fingers are on auto pilot. Is there such a thing? I dunno. Haven’t had much happening lately, so have not had much to wriote about.

Hopefully later there will be something that makes sense. Not sure that this does right now. Laters people.:)

Resolve

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

I have a brother-in-law who does lots of videos, blogs, and other stuff. He has been looking for the right equipment to do those jobs that he has lined up. Recently I saw mention of something called omnisphere.

I do not know if he is into doing the synthetic type of sounds, but it does sound interesting. He has done some shows and created his own adventure stories that have included many types of sounds and sights. Need to talk to him and find out more.

What is it?

Saturday, January 21st, 2012

There is a phrase that I was curious about - Bell Vortex.

I looked it up and what did I find? Well, that is the question is it not. Was it a vortex? A Vortex happens to be another name for a whirlwind or tornado. Was it a water spot?

Well, I found out that they sells things to help bikers. If you are a biker, you should wear something like what they sell. If you are curious about what it is, check out the link that is listed above. :)

I know, I am being a smart alec.

Found out something

Wednesday, January 18th, 2012

Recently our church had some question over a water pipe.

I found out that the pipe that was in the ground was not the correct type. It was a flex pipe, not metal hose, not PVC, not any type of approved pipe that can be used for water.

I realize that for things like gas, and oil, you have to use a special type of pipe for safety’s sake. Little did I know that even for a pipe in the ground for watering your yard, or your livestock, it also has to be a certain type that is approved by the local building inspector.

Live another day and learn something new. That’s life.

Where’s winter?

Monday, January 16th, 2012

I have heard about others who are having a lot of cold, and snow.

Meanwhile, most of the time our weather is above 40. Where is winter?

We need winter to slow down the growth of fire ants and other stuff. I was raised up north where snow was one of the give-aways of winter. (St.Louis MO) Down here in Texas, snow is a rarity. Also a rarity is a freeing temperature. It does have its uses after all.

Noises

Saturday, January 14th, 2012

Have you ever thought about what type of noises the human body makes?

I didn’t until I started to make strange noises myself. The amount of ingenuity it takes to make sure that you can keep breathing without rattling or otherwise disturbing the peace can be totally amazing.

Just trying the clear your nose to inhale, trying to keep your mouth from drying out when the nose is totally stopped up, just trying to be comfortable….well, I am glad that noises do not make me sick.

The idea that a simple cold can lay the idea of silence to rest is amazing.

Ack!!!

Sunday, January 8th, 2012

I appear to have a head cold.

Yuk. phooey is absolutely the best that I can say about it.

I am grumpy, tired, aching, grumpy. Did I say grumpy twice? It is very true. My head feels as if the cotton Bowl was played in it and they forgot to remove the cotton afterwards.

I do NOT want to talk about what has been getting coughed up. The human body is not as elegant as some fashion models think that it is. The things that ooze out of it are disgusting!

Gloria

Sunday, December 18th, 2011

No, it is not a name.

I took one word from an older Christmas carol to express what has happened in the last day or so. Saturday our church went on a hay ride and had a blast. Young and old, singing and non-singing, going through a nearby neighborhood, serenading anyone who wanted to listen.

We waved at passing cars, had people honk and wave back. This was fun and a time to treasure.

Today, we had church with a great message, great meal, a new singer who played a guitar beautifully, and afterward we exchanged gifts. We ended up having more laughter, smiles, and fun.

I hope that you can have a great time with your family, friends and others and also have a great time. :)

Decorations - beads

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

When making decorations, there are a lot of different types of beads that can be used.

I, myself, make jewelry sometimes and use many types that are a mixture of glass, metal, wood, and ceramic.

Of course if I could afford Swarovski Crystal beads, that would make a wonderful difference in the type of jewelry. I have seen little figurines that were made of crystal and they were magnificent. All that I can say is have fun. That, after all, is the point of doing crafts. Why do it if it isn’t fun? :)

Houses for rent

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Where we live here in Central Texas, apartments are sometimes hard to come by. When people get an apartment and are happy with it and the people around it, they hold onto to it.

The next thing that someone might do is look for houses for rent. Paying rent on a house will help the house owner, and give another option to the persons looking for a place to live.

Of course since we live within 50 miles of Fort Hood military installation, rentals do not come cheap. If you are looking for a place, do not give up, it is probably out there somewhere.
