I just got done doing the reunion pics of my dad’s family and then I get an email that his sister passed away today. At least he was down there to say goodbye. He was telling me that she has some faiting spells, though she didn’t faint just felt like she was going to. Dad said he had the same thing about 12 years ago. He also mentioned that his dad died of a stroke or complications of one.

LOAD=LayOut A Day

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

I saw this challenge on 2peas. I thought it would be fun to try it at linnecards. Only one person and I are making it so far and P sounds like she is ready for the month to be over. I don’t want to quit but I know I won’t be able to get anyone to join with me at linnecards. I thought about joining them at 2peas but I don’t feel like posting my stuff over there. It’s the largest scrapbooking website so there is tons of layouts and stuff to look at in the peanut gallery. And what happens is that mostly it gets passed by, maybe looked at but rarely commented on. You really have to WOW them. I understand that. But my poor little ego goes and checks how many hits the layout gets and how many comments. ACK! I just can’t do that. It’s almost as bad as a blog.

People who did a LayOut A Day are called LOADers. Maybe I could be a LAWyer if a do a Layout A Week?

Katrina Houses

Friday, July 20th, 2007

This is so cool! They came up with these ultra-small houses for an alternative to the FEMA trailers. A couple of them would be very cool single person homes. Even the smallest, which only about 100 sf bigger than my studio apartment would be nice to live in. Very efficient.

They would make could guest houses for those with too much money.

However, the funniest thing about this are the renderings. You know they are computer generated but they are made to look like hand drawn sketches.

SHAMELESS

I finally put my tags on my car. 6 months and 4 days late.

Yes, I had them in my wallet but have to dang lazy to put them on. And it’s not like it was too cold in January.
