So part of today will be spent figuring out how to use a new gadget. A guy came to give us an estimate for re-doing our hardwood floors and had this handy-dandy lil tool. I have coveted it since I first saw it. Being the tactile vs visual person that I am, of course my "girl who fixes shit"

will have to help me read the damned instructions ( yes, I am one of those who can't insert tab A into slot B) I have other methods

or

Wish me luck....LOL or maybe wish her luck in the efforts to teach

a new trick!
Here it is :

Love that ..It looks liek everyone should have one.....Santa's lil helper are you here??

I was sorely disppointed last weekend. I headed out to Sears to stroke some Craftsman stuff.. Sears is gone. Building empty, no forwarding address. What a bummer feeling that was. Looking on-line today, the store moved into a mall..yuck.

Heading out , something will suit my fancy ..

Have a good one..

Where'd that flip camera thingeee come from?

I turned the heat down to 64 yesterday, and went and bought two Snuggies. They came with book lights--I dunno the brand--that unfold, flip up and then over when you press the button, like the wings on a Lamborghini, or maybe like a Transformer... lol, we were entranced by the cool technogadgetry of it! Dunno how long they'll work, but ohhhh the look on the boy's face...

So what do you think of the Snuggies????? I am really thinking of getting one for my cold-natured self.

I want a snuggie for Bob. Being a chihuahua in the winter is hard. He is hiding under my bed pillows right now. BRRRR!!!

I did get a kinda gadget type thing. I put a tv tuner in my computer, so I can watch tv in a little box, and still be on the puter. Very cool. HD too, and if I use it through Media Center, it gives an interactive guide. Thing also works as a dvr too. Cool little gadget.

They're great! I won't have acrylic in the house--it melts into your skin and burns to the bone if there's a fire, and it gives off toxic fumes as well--but Snuggies are polyester, so I went ahead and bought them. Gryph was freezing the other night and put his on--warmed him up right away and kept him comfy.

They're weird though, kinda like a hospital gown with choir-boy sleeves, and unless a person is tall, they're too long in the front--great for getting your feet warm, but not good at all for getting up and walking around. I'm considering pinning them up some.
