What, you people aren't on their mailing list? Go to their website and sign up. If you can ignore a few promotional e-mails and mailings, you can get great coupons and notice about their in-store promotions and free tastings :drool: (And last year, I won free Godiva for a year! I'm going through withdrawl right now.)


Which is where the energy for the skating came from.

Sure! :lol:
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

We're all done moving in!

Yaaaaaay!

Remember the gross bathtub?
Image

Here it is after eKayak got down on her little eHands'n'knees and
eReGrouted and eBleached until she was eOut of her mind.
Image

But it's all good. Cause this is the view through the front door when you're sitting on the couch:
Image


Yeah, that's the sunset. And yeah. That's a freaking lake.

Ooooooooooh we're so excited. Priso is *right now* going to get a 10 foot rowboat. Hmmmm.....maybe I'll force him to name it Triaxian Silk.


As he left, he saw me logging on to TriS for the first time since October, and he mused aloud, "Is this considered falling off the wagon? Or getting back on?" rhetorically and oh-so-innocently to himself as he passed me.

:evil:

Getting back on bitch. And I'm gonna ride this wagon up and down till I'm good and done. :twisted:

You did a great job on that bathtub! The wall even changed color from beige to pink. You must have been nudging me telepathically, Entrprikayak, because I finally cleaned my bathroom this week. :vulcan:

Can you and Priso swim? Have you taken a safe boating course? Sorry, I am such a Mom when it comes to water safety! :poke:

CX, behave yourself! :tsktsk: I suspect you were trying to be funny and I hope EK was taking it that way too!
Working on a major fan fic project. Two-thirds done. Hope to put it up in the not TOO distant future.

Lee and I are both good boaters (mostly kayaking see here...me with braces!) and both with CPR training. But a good question to ask! :)

This lake is 18 acres of glassy deliciousness. We got our PFDs on and put a stocky, dwarf-like lifejacketed Aureilia in the boat and carried it across the road and jumped in. Two seconds later, we're sitting in the middle of the lake, looking across at our weeeeeeeee 1930's cottage of a house. (900 sq ft :D )

Aureilia loved it!

I got my bluetooth stuff in my pc working! I now have net access wherever I have Vodafone gprs cell phone signal. Yay!

On a somewhat related point, is anyone here a mac expert? I could use some help.

Ekayak, what a lovely view. I'm jealous.

Also, can you come over and clean my bathroom? :mrgreen: Pretty please? You're a miracleworker.

Aaahhh . . . . Clean bathrooms and sunsets over the lake. It's so soothing and relaxing.
