HAPPY SECOND BIRTHDAY, LAURIE!!!

 

It seems like it was only yesterday that we brought her home.

 
 

Quite a lot has changed and we have loved every minute.

New Wireless Printer!

It's amazing how the simple things, like being able to send a fax, make a copy, or print something in color, can really cramp your style when you all of a sudden can't do it.

The other day my trusty Canon printer finally bit the dust (I wore the poor thing out). So, I just picked up a really cool Wireless replacement for it and life is great again!



This thing is cool! Once it's installed, any computer on my wireless network can print, scan, or fax to it over wireless! I don't even have a USB cable or network cable plugged into it! Talk about cool!

It also can fax, scan, copy, & print in duplex (both sides)! Plus it can print out these cool "template" sheets of lined paper, graph paper, music staff paper, etc. My heavens! What will they think of next! Pretty darn cool!



And the best part of it all was that it was really cheap! $129.00 on Amazon.com! Man I love that website! I ordered it on Monday and it was here on Thurs and shipping was FREE!!! Gotta love it!

Laundry

I hate Laundry!!! I am terrible at removing stains and even worse at getting it folded and put away. Graydon knows that sometimes I need a little push.

He went to the store the other day and brought me home a card. (I would show it to you, but our scanner is broken.) The front shows a Fifties-style housewife holding a nicely folded pile of towels. She says, "Kids...I have fresh towels for you to leave rotting on the floor...come and get 'em!"

Inside it says, "Don't you just love that 12 seconds when all the laundry is done?"

I laughed. I have a book called The Queen Cleans Everything. In this book the Queen of Clean says that the Laundry is NEVER done...unless everyone runs around nude and doesn't use anything. (Okay, those may have not been her exact words, but it's the general idea.) I think that it is just aweful that the job that can never be completely done is the one I hate the most.

Thank you, Honey for the wonderful card.
