We would love to have our tv mounted above our fireplace…but my husband isn’t very handy around the house.

We have a flat panel, wall mountable TV….but we need a TV wall mount to place it on the wall.

Again…I’m pretty sure my husband won’t be able to hang it. I’ll have to do it myself or hire someone to do it for me. LOL

Oh well…he is good at his job and brings home the bacon. :-)

I am in need of a new printer…I can’t seem to keep a printer. They all break down…or I break them down. ;-)

We had one of those wireless printers…but we accidently erased the ssid information…and we have lost the installation cd…so now what??

We also have a nice one that takes forever to run out of ink..but it’s only black and white..which is find when I’m printing out my genealogy papers, not so good with pictures! LOL

Any thoughts on a new printer?

I have a Canon Rebel, and my daughter uses a point and shoot.  She really could use another SD card or two, though. She loves taking pictures and takes much better shots than I.

At one time I wanted to be a photographer…but I think I’m much better suited to just back the photographer in the family up when needed. I can’t get the shots they can, nor does it interest me the way it does them. Right now, I’ll just stick with homeschooling the kids and genealogy. I do love researching my own genealogy…maybe I’ll get certified in genealogy….???

It’s that time of year I enjoy the most…just past fathers day and just before my oldest sons birthday.  The longest time span in the year that I have no one to buy for, no one to hold a party for, etc. 

Just before my sons birthday is my birthday…and I’m already working on my wish list to give anyone who makes the mistake of asking me what I would like for my special day!  ;-)

A few things that come to mind: a new car, a new house (let’s get the really big ones out of the way first), a new laptop, luxury watches, a persian kitten, a cairn terrior puppy….boy, this list could go on forever!

What I really want is a few minutes of peace…a few minutes in which my children wait on me, my husband cooks my dinner and I can sit in the living room and watch whatever I want on TV without someone pointing out that they don’t like whatever it is on the screen!

Can I have that?? Even for only a little while….

Looks like my laptop is in need of an upgrade..it isn’t running as fast..I’m having a hard time multi-tasking…etc..etc…maybe laptop memory is what I need…

And I just got this thing about two months ago…it’s strange, the instant you take your laptop home it’s outdated…horrible.

Maybe next time I’ll have a laptop built for me…one that’s a little ahead of the current market…maybe then it won’t be outdated..

nah….
