Wildfires

Not much scares me...like really really scares me. Drowning is one, and fire is another. When we go camping and we have a campfire, I'm up all night in a panic that it is going to flame up and catch on fire the tree limb that is draped dangerous close over the top of the pit. Why do they do that? They put the fire pits right underneath a tree. I have seen many a campsite tree with scorched limbs. Freaks me out. Christmas Trees. I don't sleep well towards the end of their time in my house, which sometime is until April. Not really. We're actually talking February. March maybe. ** just kidding** **or am i????** These wildfires in California are so scary. I just don't understand why people live in those mountains down there. I understand not wanting to live in LA, or in one of the many surrounding cities. But I would pick that over living right in the middle of a fire hazard. Actually I wouldn't. I would never live down there to begin with. I would have to be in the film/tv industry for me to ever be down there. There is no other reason for me to ever live there. And since I will never be in that industry, I can pretty much bet you every dime I ever make the rest of my life that I will never....ever...live in the greater LA area.
My thoughts go out to everyone down there who are dealing with these horrible fires. Be safe everyone......

Halloween Cards

I was productive today. I made 16 Halloween cards. I was going to upload a couple photos, but I think I will wait until October after I mail them. I feel so good that those are done. I need to work on my July campout books now. And then I will start on Christmas cards. Right now I'm running virus stuff on the main computer. For some reason the Norton is not coming on. That worries me. I will be pissed if a virus disabled the Norton. Why the hell pay for Norton if there is crap out there that will turn it off????
I hope HOPE its fine......
but I don't think it is......

I.....ummmm....spent money today.....
It's OK....I will use it....
See how I justify the purchase :-)
If you want a Halloween Card let me know!!!!

theres never enough money.....

Why is it that every time I'm saving money for a trip I find a buttload of things I want to spend money on? I have been saving money for our Hawaii trip next month and I keep finding things to spend money on. Things that I need....and many things that I don't need. Like the Lia Sophia jewelry that I am going to order. Don't need it....but I want it! I have a hard time passing up great deals. And let me tell you...this is a great deal! So I am spending money on that. This weekend I want to go to Michaels and buy some card stock. They are having a great sale on paper. Do I need paper? Probably not. Will I use it??? Hell ya! The ad was showing some really cool colors. Gawd....I'm a sucker for scrapbook/card paper. We are also taking orders for our fund raiser cookbooks at work. They are $10 to get them from the printer. We get $5 off of each book to donate to the organization that we picked. And the corporate foundation will match some of the funds that we raise. So far we are looking at between $5000-$6000 dollars that we will be donating! Pretty awesome. So I ordered 10 books. There is another $100 that I'm spending before Hawaii. But that is for a good cause. So I'm cool with that money being spent. Besides....I keep telling hubby that I just want to lay around the pool/ocean/cute shirtless tanned Hawaiian guys. That won't cost much :-)

Silly Kittehs......

**snort**

**hmmmmm...wondering who Hank is????? I think we could have at least tried to work things out**
