Baby Bunny
- Sunday, February 24, 2008
 Last weekend we rescued a baby bunny. Our dogs were trying to get to it & we got it before they did. They may not have meant any harm but even if they were to pick it up with their mouths it could have been punctured & gotten infected very easily. Anyway, we got him & brought him inside the house & put him in a box with waded up paper towels and some fresh salad to munch on. I called my dad, since he is the expert on all things wild. He said he has tried to keep wild rabbits before & they just refuse to eat while in captivity & will die.
 I so wanted to keep the bunny. He was so tiny - he fit in my palm. But I did a little research online & found that my dad knew what he was talking about. You are never supposed to keep wild animals - it's actually against the law. Who knew? Plus the likelihood of keeping a wild bunny alive in captivity is next to nil. So, we let him go. He slipped right under the fence into the brush. We haven't seen him since, so I am taking that as a good sign that he found the other bunnies that hang out around our house and is fine. The end.

Pandora & Netflix
- Sunday, February 17, 2008
My two favorite things lately to escape my hectic life:
#1. Pandora.com - An online (and free!) radio station built to accomodate your tastes. So far I have stations for: Cake, Tori Amos, Tracy Chapman and Joss Stone type music. It is way too cool. I found it while stumbling - stumbleupon.com (another favorite time waster).
#2. Netflix.com - As many of you know, I'm sure, Netflix offers a watch now option on many of its movies if you are a subscriber. It's awesome because I don't have to waste the shipping time to see those really kind of crappy movies that I insist on watching - nobody knows why, especially not me. But I got a couple under my belt the other night - Brooklyn Rules (with the adorable Freddie Prinze Jr.) and Undead or Alive (a western/zombedy - eek - with Chris Kattan). My seven thousand movie long list is now 2 shorter. Yay!
Well, it is Sunday & I must attend to my duties. Catcha later!

A Quick Brag
- Friday, February 08, 2008
I just got this message from a buyer on ebay.
"Good Morning, Just want to let you know receipt of the crop jacket in yesterday's mail. FANTASTIC item. Left feedback on ebay and thanks again for the listing. Enjoy your weekend, Bernie"
Just wanted to share. I'm always soooo happy when the buyer is happy.

The Update
- Thursday, February 07, 2008
Not much is going on here. The list follows:
I am involved in the Relay for Life through my job at IntegrityNETworx.com. We will be raising money for the American Cancer Society from now until April, when the Relay actually happens. If you would like to contribute, please contact me through my form.
At home: we found a leak in our master bathroom, so now are participating in an unplanned remodel. I finally decided on tile two days ago. Now, just waiting for shower valves & my husband to start in on those & adding walls back to the space. I'll post before, during & after photos once we're "there".
Also, he got my cabinets installed - yay! They are beautiful. Now we just need to finalize with a bar for hangers and adding the knobs. Eventually I will paint & our mini-makeover will be complete!
I missed my Bellydance class this week - I've been really worn down. I hope I didn't miss too much. The next 5-week cycle starts next week - yay! I might have to treat myself to a new hip scarf - they are soooo pretty.
I've been steadily losing weight on weight watchers. I plan to weigh in tonight, so I'm sure an update will be forthcoming on that.
That's it for now. TTYL!
