Happy New Year Early

Let's see..what new year's resolution am I going to break this year. Quit smoking?, lose weight?, Might as well. This year really had some ups and downs. I was trying to decide rather to sell my old house, fix it up or what. I decided to get a new one which is good. It seemed to take forever to get everything done to move in, finally got in, spent 5 nights in it then had to evacuate. I wish we could have enjoyed it a little longer. Now there's holes in the roof and ceiling, the siding and skirt are tore up and it don't look like its getting fixed any time soon. I've had ones not show up, or say they will get back with me or not return my calls. I have a "do not call" list on my refrigerator. And I will not call them again! I thought I had found someone last week. He actually showed up and said he would get back to me in a couple of days. Okay, I gave him til after Christmas and haven'nt heard back from him yet. I'm beginning to think I should have had more damage so it would be a bigger job where they would make more money. I'll find someone if I don't run out of names. I did have a roofer show up, too, but I would rather have someone to fix all of it.
My brother came to see us Saturday and told me to hang in there til Spring and he would come up with me a computer. I miss my dsl and my old pc. This one was free so I shouldn't complain. At least I can post on my blog:-)
Better get off of here. cyal next year:-)

Merry Christmas Early

I FINALLY got a dig camera. We celebrated Christmas early with my son and his family this week-end since he has to work every week-end this month. They gave me a dig. camera,Yay! Now, I need to learn how to operate it. Okay I'm a little behind...everyone has digital cameras. I need to get a better computer next. Haven't yet because theres so many repairs to be done around here. Insurance doesn't cover everything. Plus I'm having dental work done. Anyway, I'll get one eventually. This one will have to do for now.
I had fun playing with my grandson. I watched him last night while they went to a Christmas party. Whew! I need to get in better shape or something. Thought he was going to wear me out playing ball in the kitchen. I would bounce it around while he jumped up and down trying to get it. I would sit down and he would grab my leg to get up and play more ball. They have another one on the way and its another boy. Yelp, I better shape up..lol..
I don't watch the news every day and apparently I have missed something. Whats this crap about No Merry Christmas but you can say "Happy Holidays?!" I saw a vihicle in the parking lot, too, that said "Merry Christmas, not Happy Holidays." Then at work at one of the meeting they were telling us we could tell the customers Merry Christmas if we wanted to. Since when do I need permission to tell someone Merry Christmas? What next! Some things go a little overboard if you ask me.
I'll be back on the phone tomorrow. Still trying to get estimates for my storm repairs. I have a couple of friends that was going to fix my roof but I decided against it. They don't have insurnce and not bonded. It was tempting, though. gotta go.
