We have been thinking about adding yet another computer our home. One for my husband to use for gaming and only gaming. The one he is using now is no where near as fast and powerful as he would like it to be and he also is sharing it with our girls. So you know he has no hope of gaming on the weekends or when there is home work to be done. The only real reason we haven't added another computer as of yet is the cost. But we just learned that Easy As My PC offers gaming computer kits that my husband can assemble himself. Easy As My PC will even test the components and they offer full easy to read illustrated instructions. I know my husband is handy and great at "do it yourself" projects around the house. I don't know why I didn't think of looking for a diy computer sooner? Buying a diy gaming PC is going to save us hundreds. And it comes with a full warrenty, so there is no risk involved there.

Oh, I see some serious gaming in my husbands near future and some serious savings in our budget!
Now before I vent about the men I work with I should point out that they are all very nice guys. I am very lucky to be working with such a great group of people. BUT for some strange reason they all feel they need to be my weather men. Ha ha ha.. let me explain! I sit in the front office and have about a dozen guys that work out back in our shop and as they walk through and pass my desk, which sits right in front of a large window let me point out, they all for some reason feel the need to comment on the weather. So when it's raining like today, I will hear "yep it's raining" or "wow, it's really raining" or " it's going to rain" or " the rain is really coming down now" at least five or six times in one afternoon. It really gets on my nervous some days! But because they are all like I said so very nice, I bite my tongue. But one of these days when I am stressed out I am going to snap at one of them or ask how I could NOT know it's raining, sitting here in front of a large window and all.

After days of gloomy, cold rainy weather today is dry and beautiful with the high of 70. Just perfect for a family BBQ. Since the weather was so crappy on Sunday we decided to have a pretend it's Mother's Day celebration this evening at our house. My parents and my daughter will be over after work. Should be a good time. Labels: family
Even though I am still fighting off this head cold, which is now in my ears so I feel like I have been under water for a couple of days I still had a very nice Mother's Day weekend. My husband and daughter made me dinner last night and showered me with gifts while we sat around and ate ice cream for dessert. Allison had a few handmade gifts from school and a digital key chain for me. She was so proud of herself when she saw happy they made me. It really was a good day.
I don't know what I was thinking coming to work today. Not only do I have one of the worse colds I have had in a long time but my endometriosis is really acting up and I am in a lot of pain. I think it's the worse it's been in over a year. Thank goodness my husband and i both have doctor appointments today. I am hoping for a magic shot of some kind to kick this cold out of my system. If I take any more over the counter meds I think my stomach is going to fall apart. The only answer for me is go back home soon and soak in a warm bath and go back to bed for a while before seeing the doctor today. Labels: bitching, daily bs, me

If I could have anything I want for Mother's Day or my birthday this year my husband would all over MaidPro.com ! I would love to hire some one to give our house a good House Cleaning. I have a vision of our bathroom and kitchen sparkling clean, of all of our beds made at once and even our furniture polished instead of being just rubbed clean. I can just see our hardwood floors shinning like new and our carpet freshly vacuumed. It would be like a dream! Now that would be the best gift for any wife or mom ever!
Attention Hubby, if you are reading this you better head over to MaidPro.com a.s.a.p. and make my dreams come true this year. I think I deserve it!
