my computer at work

I was contracted out as a consultant for a new company three weeks ago. They had a computer ready for me but it was not set up correctly so I could actually do work. I finally got my new one last Thursday. I guess they made it a worthwhile wait. It’s pretty decent ya think?

OMG does anyone blog any more?

I thought I was bad. But I just visited my links on my blogroll… seriously people haven’t updated their blogs for too long. liberta hasn’t updated her blog since last year? Is it true?

bubo and misty in the snow

We got our first snow of the year Wednesday. Yesterday we let the dogs out on our deck which had about 2-3 inches of snow. Misty was a bit shy at first but with our encouragement she finally stepped onto the deck. Bubo loved eating the snow. In one of the pictures you will see… Continue reading bubo and misty in the snow
