Today was a busy day, although for some reason I feel like I got nothing done.<\/p>\n
For me, the day started with a headache, which some Excedrin knocked down. ellipticcurve<\/a> joined us early in the morning, and we all went to a Pancake Breakfast to support S&F’s school. After that, I spent the day between doing laundry loads (including folding… I did about 7-8 loads), and playing around with Paint Shop Pro 9<\/a>, which I just got. I redid a few of my userpics (you might have noticed), and played around with some of the new features.<\/p>\n Even busier were gf_guruilla<\/a> and ellipticcurve<\/a>, who spent the day working in the Sewing Room, continuing to declutter. We no longer need to call in Clean Sweep<\/a>. Yeah, and thanks to ellipticcurve<\/a> for all her hard work.<\/p>\n S&F has been in a pill mode (or I’ve been grumpy… between the headache, and my arm bothering me off and on), and luckily, ixixlix<\/a> took her and the Karate Kid to the Huntington Museum during most of the day. S&F is home now, listening to My Fair Lady<\/i>, and trying to keep putting off doing her homework.<\/p>\n Speaking of S&F…<\/i> In going through her backpack today, we had a note from her school about how they are trying to update their computer lab (they are a technology magnet). To quote the letter: “If you or your company purchased Microsoft software (Windows, MS-DOS, Office, Excel, Word, Works Suite, Home Essential 97 or 98) between February 18, 1995 and December 15, 2001, you may be eligible to donate settlement money from a Microsoft Class Action suit. Anyone can donate up to $650 of their settlement vouchers to schools. Additional detailed information can be found at http:\/\/www.microsoftcalsettlement.com<\/a>. If you need the name of S&F’s school, drop me email.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n As for my arm: It’s been bothering me off and on. Supposedly, it will stop bothering me once the NSAID builds up to a suitable level. I’ve also had it suggested to me to explore a professional massage. Of course, I don’t know if that will help, or how to find one. All I know is right now it is bothering me, S&F is starting to fight back on going to bed, and I’m getting extremely grumpy. I think I’m going to go for a walk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Today was a busy day, although for some reason I feel like I got nothing done.
