| saving stuff, putting it on other disks and reformatting. Yes, reformatting my computer. DH decided to get on to do some banking and he thought everything was back the way it used to be...um, oops. Sorry! Not yet! I have IE 7 on and i don't like it...and i'm debating whether or not to add firefox again, i have to see what DS' is like again. I also have to set up emails all over again...oh joy! I have a "password" for my account since it is the "administrator." He wasn't happy about that either! He uses my part of the computer anyway...but i'm re-thinking that. I wonder if he should just have an account of his own and then we have a "guest account" for the kid...that way, i can have access, and the kid can have access should he need it. And DH has his own stuff...I have a feeling he won't want to do that... Me? I just have to find all the software needed. Looks like my week will be one of "reinstalling" and deciding what I need and what I don't. I don't think I'm appreciated until changes happen, and then DH gets frustrated. This time he said, "I'm not spending a half an hour looking up bank info..." Um. Yeah. That's called figuring it out er, learning! I don't do well with some changes either, but sometimes you just gotta bite the bullet. I have to admit, though...i loved IE 6. I'm not a fan of 7 at all. I am trying to find a browser that is similar to what I liked... Should be an interesting week! Jenni | | |

I have always looked at portraits of others with interest...ones in the Parliament buildings, or wherever i see them, and wonder about the person...mostly because we had one done by DH's mom and it is very precious to us (and i hope later on, our kids).
My dh's mom did this portrait; Angy, it is the only one dd has on her facebook of us two...never realized how young you look till you get older, eh? The photo was taken a year after we were married...I have the photo somewhere and what really blew my mind is that Mom even did my blouse itty bitty design with amazing talent. It is all EXACTLY like the picture!
Mom brought it to us when i was having our firstborn, Jonas. Anytime a nurse came in they went ga-ga over the portrait, and everyone came in to look, it spread like wildfire on the floor of the hospital that we had this amazing portrait in my room! Everyone came to "peek!"
DH's mom is the most awesome mom in the world...i really lucked out getting her for a MIL - she's not my MIL she's "mom" to me. We got on like old girlfriends the first night we met -- we stayed up till 4 a.m. talking! ;) I could not have asked for a better person in our lives...she is a doll and i love her very much.

| Okay it's hard to believe that i graduated in the later 70's!
Too many years ago!
However, even though that is a long time, i still like my dress.
Here is the dress, Jilly! :)
Here's my grad dress...
This is me in it! This is the graduation picture with my diploma it is much better detailed...

Someone dared me to post this...this is a shawl my ex-boyfriend's mom knit for me in the 70's. Looks like the colors have come back! 
This is a sweater my foster mom knit in the 70's and she gave it to me a few years later...i have kept it all these years. Don't know if i will ever be that size again but i'm keeping it anyway. It is hand made by Nel Ipema. *g* I am trying to download the pics of my grad dress (also a dare!) *G* I might have to reboot as my computer is being finiky... :) Jenni | | |
| not because i have nothing to say but because i am very frustrated and it takes to long to put it all into words...A week or two ago, a man in Edmonton went into a WCB office and held hostages because he's so frustrated he isn't being heard...my ds accessed the CBC website and he said that 95% were empathetic to him, and while violence isn't an excuse, we understand why he did what he did...
One of my old friends from high school called today, and while we discussed WCB and the jerks that they are, and the fact that they also get bonuses for denying claims, (that was also written on the CBC website under the comments from people who used to work for them). Well now we have a new standing joke between us: "Did this happen at WORK?" *snicker*
I am not thrilled with doctors, and i'm not thrilled with what's going on with DS...we are STILL needing to get a referral appointment! A year plus wait, that just SUCKS when he is in a helluva lot of pain and the doc won't give him anything to speak of to deal with the pain, and for that matter the doc is just too damn paranoid IMO, but i guess once you've been screwed by the College of Physicans and Surgeons, it's hard...but i'm still not liking this.
For that matter, i'm not liking what's going on with me, either. I don't get much relief, and the specialist put me on 5,000 units of Vitamin D to see if that will do anything...so in the next two months i just have to suffer this out...It's ridiculous. Or as Jonas says, "redunkulous!"
So, that's what is going on here...it hurts to walk, it hurts to sit, and it REALLY hurts trying to manage stairs. I've about had it.
So, i haven't written much, because then i could really get *down* and i don't want to do that.
It sucks when you're living most of your life in pain...and i'm not feeling like the edge is even being dealt
with.:(
That's it for now. We have been adjusting to a house full...oh joy. I don't really have privacy but i sometmes hole myself up in the master bedroom and shut the door for awhile...
