My new toy :

As some of you have follow me on FB you know what I am talking about. U got it a laptop! I love it and I can stay in my bedroom and take it in another room in a house. I had been wanting one for a while and here it is. I am online talking and typing my lifa away..LOL.♥ I love this little feature that I found from Guido on FB. I also got a letter monogram from my niece for Christmas along with a velux blanket and a scrapbook. I started that this past week and I got my Letchworth NAtional Park that is in my November 2008 entry. I also put Pesqu Isle photos in there too. I miss scrapbooking, I haven't done any think last spring. When I did my sister benefits party photos. I will keep that one as a separate book from the other photos.
In the meantime, I did have a nice Christmas last year. It went so fast didn't it. I miss posting some cute tags in here and now Valentine's Day and Chinese New Year is coming up. I try not to snag too many tags from Donna or Sugar. They both do nice tags. I do like Missie and CabCreations as well. So, I will post my laptop here and I will keep you all up to date. Take care!





PS that photo is from Gateway. Not mine.

Got it and I'm back:

Well hello everybody,

Just to say that I am back and feeling better. Now that I got a new toy..Donna and I went to the store and got the laptop that I always wanted. I also had my other sister with us as well. I got so excited that I can't sleep.LOL I guess we all do that. I am a little tired and just so sunny out there and some snow in the forecast. I do need to catch up on some of the bloggers but that'll be a while. My PC is Navy blue and a Gateway window7. I really haven't play with my new pc other stuffs but it will be there when I get to its. So in the meantime I am writing this short and I will keep you all up to date. Take care!

Where did the time go?

I am sitting here at D's house writing this entry. I am going laptop shopping and Donna is taking me. Keeping fingers crossed. I have no clue what to buy or else. I got an add for Bestbuy our local store and they have a Gateway laptop on sale. I don't know if this is what I want and we're going to check it out and see. I do want a bigger GB and hard drives for my photos. I guess our pc is shocked, I guess we'll look one up for Dad too.. I can't stand it anymore. I just don't get it either.

In the meantime everybody is doing fine. I took time off from school to help mom out and dad as well. He is hanging in there. After Christmas he had been falling quite a bit. He haven't done any in a while.
In the meantime I hope I'll get that laptop. I am excited and it will be my belated Christmas/birthday combos. I hope I get too. I think the frustrations will be over too. UGH!
Weather had been so cold here in western NY. last week was in the lower teens and single digits numbers-as well. Now it is a heatwave of 33degrees.(whoo hoo)! We got a lot of snow last week and still on the ground. Icy too!
So, hope everyone we'll do well and keep those fingers cross for me and I will be back before you know it. Take care!

Away for a while...Happy New Year too!

I just want to leave you a little note. I have been having problem with the PC. I am using my sisters today to say "Hell0". I did had a nice New Year and a quiet one too. Christmas was nice as well. One of these days I will get a laptop. Keep fingers cross. Right now I am helping Mom and Dad. As soon as I get one I will be writing again. IN the meantime hang in there and stay warm. Enjoy the month of January..Take care!

What have I been doing?

Oh goodness! Has it been that long since I haven't blog. Not that I really do..LOL. I had been so busy and crazy with my parents and brother. My brothe had surgery a few weeks ago. It was juat one day. He is doing okay, I will post about it another time .IN the meantime, Mom is doing better as well as my Dad himself. I'd been busy with school and now I got to write a book report.
I haven't done a book report in 24 yrs. UGH! Its on the day of history. Nov. 13. There were a several topics and I have to choose one of them. I think I will pick the Holland Tunnel. That is on the Hudson River going into New Jersey. About a fire. I ended looking some informations and I have to read it and do the homework. I will probably do that tomorrow. I don't know I will write it on the same day.So, in the meantime wish my luck..LOL.
I also decided to go back on my power walking from my video and get in another small size. I bought a gorgeous dress for my second cousin's wedding. I love it and its feels so good to be in a dress that i would like. It is black low cut v-neck and a kinda twisted gathering at hip with a stone button. I am so thrilled with and the best part it was on sale for about $45 from a $200 dress. I was amazed. I thought it wiil be about $60 and the final marked down was lower. Lucky me..LOL Got to love those sales.. Now, I got to look for jewelry and a purse to match. Ran out steam that day. Did I tell you that my mom, sisters and I went shopping two weeks ago? It was a blast and went out to TGIFriday's for an appetizer. We were going to have dinner soon we got home but ended up being so full. That why I decided to go on th diet or at least watch what I eat. I really don't diet for that matter.
It was so crazy that I didn't even post something of my sister. Who passed two years ago on the seventh. I didn't mean to do that but since my mom fell everything just went from one things to another. We all do misses her very much and I didn't toallu forgot her because we were thinking about her all the times. LOVE you big sister.

Okay, I think I am going to get off and get some sleep. SO, until next time.
