Hookt on fonics

12 May 2009

Yet another case against teaching children to spell it like like it sounds (hooked on phonics). This was at a local dollar store nearby. If only 3 screws are missing missen , then its probably a good deal! ;)

I wonder if they will let us use the palace if we dress up for our wedding?! lol

This was a pretty cool site with quite a few face cut out templates to insert your own photos. I should have spent a bit of time looking for a photo that matches the skin tones of the original photo a little better, looks like we were buried in sand up to our neck out in the Sahara or somewhere! I’m not used to seeing myself appearing to have any colour to me! Pasty white is my normal shade I think ;)

Give it a try, I’m sure you will find something here suitable to your tastes

9 days to go

my lady in red

9 days to go and I just can’t wait! :) my heart hasn’t stopped racing since the day she booked the flight! Well truthfully it hasn’t stopped racing since that morning i woke and read that message from her on Mingle! And each day now brings us nearer to our special day and the excitement just builds more and more. Once again today we had a chance for a quick skype and I got to see my baby once again :) Shes just back in from another outing, this time to WalMart! yes they have one there too, operating as an ASDA – WalMart Supercentre!

(From Wikipedia, Asda is a United Kingdom supermarket chain which retails food, clothing, toys and general merchandise. It became a subsidiary of the American retail giant Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer,[1] in 1999,[2] and is the second largest chain in the UK after Tesco,[3] having overtaken Sainsbury’s in 2003. Asda is Wal-Mart’s largest non-U.S. subsidiary, accounting for almost half of the company’s international sales.)

Asda WalMart Supercentre

So here’s my super shopping Brit standing outside the afore mentioned WalMart. Quite a different look than hte super centers here, but none the less theres the familiar WalMart logo. my guess is pretty soon that star in the middle will be replaced with a world globe ;) Well all of this is just another example of how all this technology helps to keep us close by sharing the days events with each other.

Well i havent had so much to send her these last few days though, trying to get over a bad cold or maybe the flu and I’ve kept inside mostly. I did send her a pic of me after getting rid of some of my grey hair this morning! shhhh! LOL well I dont think I’m so vain really but I do hate having a head full of grey hair and looking so old. I’m not about to give in to it yet, but when the time comes i will go gracefully but until I can afford that “Just for Men” I will keep using it! ;) I dont have a before and after pic so i will just post the after one…

Magically the grey is gone

Now just to get the beard to match! lol well thats another day. Have to do these things gradually or i will look in the mirror and not recognize myself! Well anyway this is image Alison sees from my webcam during our video chats. I still think i have the better view of seeing her ;) Its wonderful these video calls, only it just makes me want to stop and look at her than to speak! As much as i love this I cant wait to give it all up and have her face to face though. Its been a long three years almost and if you think about it it has hardly been a months time we have actually been together in the same place! ?But we still have managed so very to stay close and connected several times a day without fail. Maybe the very rare occassion one of us was too ill or unable to use a pc or cell, but even those days we at least managed once to speak somehow if it wasnt more than a text.

I guess this post is more a ramble than anything else, just trying to pass the time until these days are passed anf we are where we were destined to be, at each others side :) love you baby xxxx

Alison’s Leaving Party

16 November 2008

This past Saturday evening all the girls took Alison out for a night on the town as a leaving party. Alison will likely do a post or write something about it so I will just present a small slide show of some of the pictures

too bad we dont have any video from the karaoke sessions though, I have a feeling quite a few of the girls were feeling pretty good about that time of the evening ;)

Amazing Landscape Photos

5 August 2008

Top 10 | Landscape photos | landscapes with a soul. I was just surfing randomly around the web as I often do, going from a link on one site to another one and then another until I am so far removed form the orginal site i dont even remember how I got there. Anyway I stumbled upon this site tonight and saw some of the most amzing landscape photos from around the world. It seems a collaboration of sorts by hundreds of photographers, and i havent seen a single one yet that I can’t call breathtaking. Amazing pictures. There are some related sites indirectly linked to this one, one of animal photography, another of glamour shots, and then portraits, all equally as hypnotizing to view. Enjoy

Brit Mobile

Brit Mobile

I can see us in this :)

The only car shows I get to attend this time of year are right here in the parking lot of the place I work! I have seen quite a few that worthy of being in a car show, especially this one, the paint job was immaculate. Wish  got a closer look.

Not sure what the make or model of this car was but it sure caught my eye, wish I had the regular camera with me to get a better picture. Glad I have the iPhone now as it does a fair job anyway.

Wonder why it made me think of Alison instantly? ;)  I can see her behind the wheel of this. :)  I’m absolutley clueless to what kind of car this is and I was in too much a hurry to get away from the store to stop and look closer, wish I had now. if anyone knows or recognises the make and model give me a shout!
