September is Vampire Month for Me

Cindy — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 01:28:03 +0000

As I mentioned earlier, I’m doing NanoWriMo the year. My novel is going to involve vampires. I just read the Twilight Saga this summer. Whatever I do write, my main character isn’t going to be an annoying no-personality blob. …

Bad Cooking Day

Cindy — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 21:02:42 +0000

I don’t do much cooking by myself anymore. Not anything complicated anyway. I’ll make baked macaroni and cheese, brown hamburger for tacos, stuff like that.

Today I decided to make sunnyside up eggs for breakfast (Joe works this weekend).…

Computers and Chronic Illness

Cindy — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 01:38:22 +0000

I love my netbook for more than just being adorable.

My other computer is a laptop. One of the desktop-replacement varieties. It’s a great laptop, but it can be heavy to pick up and hot on my lap, even with…

August Weight Loss Update

Cindy — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 20:36:16 +0000

I haven’t updated on my weight in awhile.

Today I weighed 160 lbs. This makes a total of 31 lbs lost since January. Go me!

I haven’t been tracking my calories or eating particularly healthy. I haven’t been exercising.…

Disturbing Night

Cindy — Sun, 15 Aug 2010 21:11:35 +0000

I had a bad night last night.

I went to sleep around 12ish. Around 12:50, I got up and told Joe there was a huge spider in the bed.

I’m still not entirely sure if there was actually a…

Netbook

Cindy — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 00:30:05 +0000

I’ve been wanting a netbook since I first saw one. They are just so cute!

I decided I wanted to do NaNoWriMo this year and thought a netbook would be fun to write it on. I’ve looked around for…

Baby Cacti

Cindy — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 20:53:30 +0000

I started some cacti from a kit around the beginning of May and put them into bigger pots today. Baby cacti look so cute!

Here they are on May 7th.

And here they are today, June 19th. …

The Dresden Files

Cindy — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 00:53:26 +0000

Joe has been trying for several years to get me to read the Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher (Storm Front (The Dresden Files, Book 1)). I put it off because I’m always hesitant about reading author’s I’ve…

Stitchtopia

Cindy — Wed, 19 May 2010 01:10:44 +0000

I’m undertaking a very ambitious project. I want to create a cross-stitch community site where it’s a combination of portfolio space/social networking. There’s Ravelry for knitters and crocheters but nothing really for cross-stitchers.

Cross-stitching isn’t as popular, but if…
