Family update.

Not much to update right now. Work on the house is slowly going forward. The hole in between the two halves is 60% done. The ceiling in the quiet room is mostly taped (still have to do the corners). 

My wife decided that since we where having turkey meatloaf for dinner that we needed to have pumpkin ice cream to go with it. Yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will hopefully get better at posting updates here. And maybe I might post something worth actually reading.

Day one out of 18

Started the one hundred pushup challenge today. Arms are sore. will see if I can make it.


Sonnet 106

When in the chronicle of wasted time
I see descriptions of the fairest wights,
And beauty making beautiful old rime
In praise of ladies dead and lovely knights,
Then, in the blazon of sweet beauty's best,
Of hand, of foot, of lip, of eye, of brow,
I see their antique pen would have exprest
Even such a beauty as you master now.
So all their praises are but prophecies
Of this our time, all you prefiguring;
And, for they lookt but with divining eyes,
They had not skill enough your worth to sing:
For we, which now behold these present days,
Have eyes to wonder, but lack tongues to praise.

This is not mine it is William Shakespeare. I just picked up a book of his poems and sonnets off the book shelve and started read while waiting for Mette to finish balancing the check book. I read this one and thought it was nice so I wanted to share it with everyone.

New Kitchen

Well the new kitchen is almost finished. It will be nice to have our own kitchen again and not have to eat out or at the in-laws every night. I will have to post pictures of it all when it is done. It is already looking a great and there are still some things to finish yet. Can’t wait until it is done.

Got the new TV

Finally got a new TV!!!! 42” VIZIO for a good price. Man Star Wars Force Unleashed looked great. Now I need to  play Fable 2 on it. Can’t wait. Mette may never get me out of the basement again.

Mistborn

Just finished reading Brandon Sanderson Last book in the Mistborn series. What a wonderful ride. I am really looking forward to when he finishes the last Wheel of Time book. He may not be Robert Jordan but he can sure spin a great story. It was amazing how he was able to tie small things from the first book into the an important piece of information in the last book. It is nice to read such will write stories.

Window 7

So here I am sitting with a clean install of a new operating system. So now what do I do? I guess I need to start installing tools and app that I use. How do I test this thing out. Why do I feel the need to test it out. I just want to use it. Oh well don’t really have much to say right now, I am just to tired to really think hard. I stayed up way to late.

And here I am up late again. This time it is not playing with a new tool that is keeping me up it is watching Eureka with my wife. It is such a fun show. I really miss watching the Sci-Fi channel. But it keep me up to late at night most of the time.

New T.V.

So now I have enough money saved up to buy a new LCD TV. But what do I bu? How big of a TV...oh and I can't forget the sound system what good is a big TV if you can here it! I guess I need to start doing some research in to TVs.
( off subject) I need to see if I can link twitter and my Zune and XBox and Last.fm stuff to this. Maybe on the my main site page. I will have to may be write some thing to get and show the rss feeds on the main site, and a tool to post entrys from there too.(ok back to TVs)
I think I want something around 42" 1080p then a nice sound system with it so I can shake the floor. Well I am off to do some reading
Until Later.
