PCW, I must be making up for you…I just bought a new computer and I’ve been “playing” with it for some 7 hours already, loading new software, downloading stuff, marveling at the quickness of it all. Look for me in chat soon now that I’ll be able to FINALLY download mIRC and run programs with Java, lol!

Jesus! 3 o’clock? Maybe it’s time I took a bath and got out of my PJ’s? Yikes!

Hubby just got home from work. He’s taking a nap, then we’re going to the annual wild game feed later.

I just distracted myself by checking out your webpage, and your artwork. Very nice. Mind if I use your iris (or is it an orchid, I’m not much of a botanist) as my wallpaper?

I’m pretty lazy today too.

Went and got some beer and cigs, took the dog and he enjoyed the ride.

I’m just kicking back being mellow and now very envious of voguevixen for her new 'puter, I should be dinking around on my new one today too ☹ Oh well, I am gonna drive up to Denver and pick it up so I don’t have to wait any longer.

## thank you Auntie. Feel free to take the orchid or any you like, as they are posted for the enjoyment of my friends.

Mmmmmm. Quiet, lazy day and I love it. I slept late, that dead-to-the-world healing sleep. Had lunch w/ a friend and her little boy, did a few errands, etc.

Now I have some food simmering on the stove, loads in the washer and dryer, the woofer (washed and brushed) is conked out on the foot of the bed and I’m just noodling around here.

And it’s pure bliss. If I get energetic (!) I may do some online browsing for my garden, but a quiet, lazy day can be pure bliss.

Myself, I’m just putzing around on the 'puter. I really should be doing chores, but I’m feeling lazy. The wife is out with a friend of hers right now, but when she gets back, we’re gonna go over to the other side of town and do a little shopping. Need some hangers, some blinds, and some home-improvement magazines. When we get home with all of the above, we’ll probably spend a good bit of the evening making sketches for the room addition we’re planning, then watch a movie.
