A dozen cream coloured roses, for my friend who is in the hospital.  Again.  For the second time this month.

Some coin wrappers...and in the looking phase of shopping for a 'new' door.

Well, I thought I would be posting here soon about a boat.. been looking at different ones for a while now.
Went out yesterday to look at boats and putter around a bit at different boat part stores
Asked to borrow my brothers truck to do some loads to the dump as it was free dump week. He went off and said no its his truck. Well, whatever, but it still annoyed me.
I started thinking about how we shared vehicles back and forth but he still annoyed me a few times. It really started to annoy me yesterday as I thought about it. I pulled into a dealership. I didnt make it to any other boat places or boats, but ended up all over the lower mainland yesterday with starfishie and my dad. I pick it up on thursday.

I bought some fabric 1/2 priced to make some skirts.  Now I just have to find the time to do the sewing.

P.C.

Wow...you're ambitious.  I use to sew a lot...but now I'm too lazy....and plus my machine sucks too.

It turned into a vacuum?!

  I totally admire people who sew.  I never even finished my grade 8 home ec project.  It was an unfinished skirt that sat in the closet until I finished high school.  Then my parents moved and it got thrown out.

  Last thing I bought was supplies for work at Staples.

Hi Russ,

  Recently, we purchased a ship called the Teakerne Navigator here in Corpus Christie. When I did a general search I found your posting and was wondering if you had any info on the ship? We were told that it was a Canadian Naval vessal at one time, but cannot find any history. She is a 71' Star Shipyard, built in 1953, with Canadian colors and Maple Leaf on the stacks. Hope you can help us out, or show us where we can find more info. Thanks!

Nothing yet but I am thinking of one of these 2 devices to replace my Ipod nano, the cost to repair it is more than these items cost with the exception of the touchscreen being higher priced but the screen is larger and my Ipod is only 2 gb in size.
 
   this is the one i am thinking about purchasing next month. it is a bit pricier than some other mp3 video players but it is still less expensive from other kinds. However i have not heard many reviews for this product. but i think the almost 3 inch screen will make long boring shifts @ dead sites a thing of the past.

 no mention of how long the battery life lasts on audio or video.  hopefully the battery consumption is better or at least comparative to the creative zen player.[!-- Product info right start --] [span class="tabRegular2"]

 Just don't buy a ipod nano then have it drop off the work desk and you accidentally kick it down a hallway and under a radiator, it flew faster than some hockey pucks...the screen on mine is busted...plus it has a significant dent in the corner where the headphones plug-in. I found a place that offers to repair all thinks ipod cheap... it is Irepair in north Vancouver Canada, the link is [a href="vny!://www.irepair.ca/"]vny!://www.irepair.ca/[/a]
 
 so i just don't know, should i repair my Ipod for about 70 dollars with taxes  or buy just buy a brand new video player with a nice larger screen with more storage capacity  and i just love the additional storage ability but does it include a sacrifice of battery life and how many hours of battery life does one get with a plugged in micro sd card say a 8 gb card with 8 movie's on it and 20 audio books...

so just what does one buy...

Did someone say shoes??!!!!  

I think my feet either got bigger or my runners shrunk cuz they are uncomfortable and are my only pair.  Maybe in the new year I'll get a new pair of runners.
