January sunset photos and misc.

♥Hello again.
I just came across these photos on my camera and since I didn't have the PC and internet connection. I took these just before we had our last blizzard in the second or third week of January. We also haven't see the sun all winter until that time. Now we had quite a few sunny days this month(Feb) and it was shining yesterday early in the day. I decide I'll post these now. We were supposed have a winter effect here in western NY and the storm really didn't come. I think it'll be here tonight going into tomorrow.:( ♥*(I still love the snow) That is my little icons..LOL.
I didn't go to school either. The road is slippery and my mom won't drive in these weather conditions. Oh well. It is free to go. I am not complaining. I just had that kind of day to goofed off.LOL. We are having homemade minestrone soup..YUMMY!:) Got to love comfort foods.
Everybody is doing fine. I feel like I have to get out eventually and I am so glad that I went to the pharmacy and school yesterday.
In the meantime enjoy your days and stay warm!

Color Carnival: Apple tree

I decide to play along with Martha at Color Carnival. This week she had a picture that a student had painted, I remember my best friend made me this canvas photo from a card that I asked her to paint. At that time she was at art school at a local college. She is good! I known her since grammar school and we're still "Best Buds." I completely forgot about it when I came across it. Yes, I need to hang it. Someday I will. I also think its "MONET". So, here is the rule and have fun. Here is my "Color Carnival."


Welcome to the Color Carnival!
The rules here at the Color Carnival are simple - there are no rules!
Well, only one - your photo must be a photo you have taken yourself or have permission to post, other than that it's all up for your own colorful interpretation.
A new Color Carnival is posted every Friday promptly at 6pm EST. You can play any time all week long until the following Friday at 5:59pm when Inlinkz linky will close.
Bring over your colorful photos and play along with Martha's blog...

Community Photo Challenge:Tree

This month's challenge is TREE or TREES, whether it is one unique tree or a small grouping, find an image that includes trees. The tree or trees should be the main subject. You can post more than one photo on your blog, but when you come back to this blog select your favorite to post on our new system. You can go here to play along.

The Challenge starts Feb.15th & ends on March 15th








PS some of you might have seen these before. I haven't really get out this winter and take photos,so I look into my old archives. Thanks for stopping by.

Olympics and etc.

Wednesday Evening:
I went downstairs after I signed off the PC and watch the snowboarding event. My belly went up and down like that feeling when you ride the roller coaster and meet the drop and you feel the tickle. Well, that how I felt when Shaun White did that high-jump. Needless to say, I think he did well and after the other competers didn't that when I knew he going to win. I think he was anyway. I got to tell that I never thought I would watch this event. I am mostly the Figures Skating,all categories.Men, women, and pairs.

Have any of you watch The Olympics Coverage?I haven't seen anybody post in a while or they just rambling about their daily lives.LOL
Thursday Evening:
I did watch some events in the afternoon too. I had to watch and see Evan Lysecak( I hope I spelled it right) lol. I sure had a feeling he was going for the gold or he would get silver. PHEW! He did.. I stayed up until 12:13 A.M. UGH! I never stayed up that late since the holidays.Okay, I am trying to catch up and hopefully I will go in on the Blogger's Challenge-TREE..I know I got a lot of autumn photos and I love the winter but since I move toward the city, I don't have no trees. That's okay, I don't want to rake those leaves anymore. I may have to go to a park to take photos. In the meantime,leaves are better.Especially colored♥
I can't believe we're in the middle of February already and it Friday and star our first Friday of Lent.
Mom and Dad are doing good as well as the rest of the family.My youngest niece stopped by today and she stayed and have cheese broccoli soup. YUMMY! It was nice to see her,we haven't seen her since the New Year. She is a busy beaver, school and working at a school.
well that all folks.Take care and enjoy the Olympics.

Misc. Happy St. Valentine's Day♥♥♥

I want say"Happy St. Valentine's Day." to everyone. I hope you all will enjoy your day. I know I will. We are having steak, lobster tail along with vegetables. I can't believe it's here already. Its seems like we just finish Christmas.


The weather here in WNY is still cold. Snow fallen here and there. Just tapering off. I notice some of you had more snow than I did all winter. The only time we had a lot of snow was early mid-January.


In the meantime Mom and Dad are doing good. Dad hasn't fall as much he did after the holidays. That's a good thing. I went back to school this week. Just to let you know that I go to a Free GED program here in NY. I did got my HS diploma, I was in Special Ed class. I did not learned alot of stuffs such as The Civil War, Lewis and Clark Expeditions, Algebra, and Geometry. There are other Arithmetic that I didn't learn. Yes, I am doing good in math but my reading skill is still low. I'm hanging in there.


Now, I'm watching TV and getting ready to watch the Olympics. How did you guys like the Cerenony or did any of you watched? I am off for now and everybody have a good day tomorrow.

PS I want to thanks Chris for the tags. I just found these in my archives.


Enjoy!♥♥♥

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!

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!
Nancy

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.

Sunday Funnies:

\

Irish Viagra:

An Irish woman of advanced age visited her physician to ask his advice on reviving her husband's libido.
'What about trying Viagra?' asked the doctor.
'Not a chance', she said. 'He won't even take an aspirin.'
'Not a problem,' replied the doctor. 'Give him an 'Irish Viagra'. It's when you drop the Viagra tablet into his coffee. He won't even taste it.. Give it a try and call me in a week to let me know how things went.'
It wasn't a week later when she called the doctor, who directly inquired as to her progress.

The poor dear exclaimed, 'Oh, faith, bejaysus and begorrah! T'was horrid! Just terrible, doctor!'
'Really? What happened?' asked the doctor.
'Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffee and the effect was almost immediate. He jumped straight up, with a twinkle in his eye and with his pants a-bulging fiercely! With one swoop of his arm, he sent me cups and tablecloth flying, ripped me clothes to tatters and took me then and there passionately on the tabletop! It was a nightmare, I tell you, an absolute nightmare!'
'Why so terrible?' asked the doctor, 'Do you mean the sex your husband provided wasn't good?'
'Freakin' jaysus, 'twas the best sex I've had in 25 years! But sure as I'm sittin' here, I'll never be able to show my face in Starbucks again!


Enjoy your Sunday and week..

Halloween rainbow

Just before dinner. It was so weird like Halloween itself. It was raining and shining at the same time. I just load some photo on the camera and soon I walk in the living room I notice the sun was still shining. I grab my camera and headed to the door. I saw a huge rainbow. I couldn't get the whole thing in. Anyway I got the split photos. The one with the house and the rainbow over the bedroom.(LOL,SHHHHH! That is my bedroom). I think I got a pot of gold in my room..LOL. As you can see there is a second rainbow in the left of that photo and the colors were vise verse.

Anyway everyone have a good Sunday.
