Go Cards

Oh yeah. The bandwagon is getting pretty full down here in Arizona. Of course, the Cardinals have finally proven that they CAN play football so that helps. Couple tidbits today.

Joleen is looking pretty dang cute. We find out what we are having in just under 2 weeks and we are getting very excited. Joleen has changed her mind and now wants a girl because she has some great decorating ideas. Meanwhile, I am officially in the middle. I don't care what we have, just want a healthy munchkin.

Work has been especially good the last two days, mainly because we have done far fewer compounds than our average. It amazes me how much time it really takes to focus on the those prescriptions compared to what the company believes it should take. There is a huge misconception at a corporate level on the time commitment for our services. I know most of the misconception is just due to economic pressure right now, but, hopefully soon the company will do an about-face on this.

We are finishing up the guest bedroom slowly but surely. It has been a very basic project but we have really spaced out the work. I need to sand down and paint the nightstand and then it is pretty much done. We will post pictures once it is all finished. Then we will do the baby room!!! EXCITING!!!

Its starting to warm up a little down here. We can't wait for summer. It's too cold! That is all.

I guess I had better add to this as well since I'm part of the blog.  


Everything is going great for the time being.  I feel almost normal again besides the fact my clothes don't fit very well anymore.  Work is busy as usual but I expected that.  

Zak and I are trying to finish decorating our guest room before we start working on a baby room.  Which I can't wait to start.  We found someone that is great at painting and they are going to help us out next month.  Only 2 more weeks until we find out boy/girl.  WAHOO!!  It is hard to imagine us with a child, let alone if the child is a boy or girl.

Not doing so well on my end of the bargain


Well, 2 posts below you can the see the rules and I have obviously broken them. Hopefully I will not have another dry spell. Work has been especially stressful lately. We have been very busy and the help we have is far from adequate. Dang economy. Anywho, who wants to hear me complain?

We have the ultrasound to determine sex of the bambino on February 9. Until then, we are having fun going back and forth on what we would like to have. I was dead set on a girl, but now I might be leaning boy. Joleen is pretty convinced that she would like a boy. I think it is because she likes me so much and she thinks he will be just like me. Joleen is showing a bit now. It's pretty dang cute. Yes, we have been talking to the baby and and rubbing her tummy. Until next time, enjoy the pictures of Jo.

Laughter cures stress. Sorry Wyoming.

The deal

So here is how this will work. I got to buy a new computer so that I could play WOW and not be totally irritated by atrocious framerates that I would get with my laptop IF I started a blog and promised to update it at least once a week. I also have to change the background once a month. These are the rules set forth by Princess Jojo. So, without further ado...let me tell you about my new box!!!!11!!!!1!!!

AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000 processor running at 3.1 ghz
ASUS Mobo
4 gb RAM
NVIDIA 9800GT 512mb video by XFX
500 gb HDD

My framerate in WOW jumped from a putrid 6 - 10 fps to a steady 60 fps including in Outlands with High graphics settings thoughout. AWESOME!!!

This comp will serve as my gaming system and for picture editing. I want to get into photoshop. I took a very basic class back in high school but I can't even remember what version of photoshop it was. I am certain it was before CS1.

Anyway, welcome to the blog. Enjoy!
